RD applicants: What will be your reaction?

<p>Accepted: repeat over and over again, "I just got into Stanford, I cannot believe I got into Stanford, mom did I just get into Stanford?." And then go get some celebratory Chipotle</p>

<p>Rejected: repeat over and over again, "You knew this was going to happen, no big deal." And then get some Chipotle.</p>

<p>You are totally right! Chipotle either way for me, too.</p>

<p>It's also going on in my mind, though, that there's no possible way I could get in, but at the same time I don't want to do that because I want to continue sending positive vibes over to Palo Alto. I'm trying to decide when the right time is to finally say, "There's no way," to myself, so that I'm not crushed if/when I receive my rejection. </p>

<p>...Is anyone else caught in this dilemma?</p>

<p>Accepted: Book a flight to California for the next day and go throughout the neighborhood yelling how happy I am
Denied: Eat a ton of ice cream and book a flight to Disney World because at least there, they say all my dreams can come true.</p>

<p>@reallyseeme </p>

<p>Oh my gosh, I actually do have that problem! I have solved it by saying, "I can do it, I am totally getting in, please let me get in!" during business hours, and then saying, "I am not getting in, be ready for disappointment there is no way you are getting in," at night, when there is no way anyone is making a life changing decision. </p>

<p>Also Chipotle rules.</p>

<p>^same for meeee. it's really hard :(</p>

<p>:) Smaaaaart. I'm doing that from now on, too. It's nice to know that we'll be eating Chipotle at the same time. Burrito bol, carnitas, con black beans, fresh tomato salsa, and guacamole.</p>

<p>haha! Just from your Chipotle selection I can tell that you deserve to go Stanford. You should maybe send it as a supplement? </p>

<p>Hey Stanford AO I just wanted to email you and say that I like the carnita Burrito bol at Chipotle, so yeah, where is my acceptance letter?</p>

<p>I think it might work ;)</p>

<p>Bols? Y'all are weak. Man up and get a real burrito! Steak with peppers and onions, rice, pico de gallo, red chili salsa (the hottest), and some lettuce.</p>

<p>Teh ownd.</p>

<p>Ha I would love to send that e-mail! It would work on me. If I end up with the misfortune of rejection, I'm sending it the minute after I get the rejection e-mail.</p>

<p>If we miraculously (referring to me) both end up at Stanford, let's go out for some Chipotle.</p>

<p>hookem168: Oh snap. Fine, that does sound like a manly burrito. But Chipotle stuff is not really Mexican, just nice and fresh, which is why I like getting bols. If anyone is in the Bay Area and reading this, holler at La Victoria. That's a hardass burrito. Anyway, I've never tried the fajita burrito, though it does sound good. I just really like the bols, so I order it every time. Maybe I WILL try a fajita burrito with hot salsa on Stanford slaughter day.</p>

<p>I mentioned Chipotle burritos in one of my essays...</p>

<p>Stanford seems to attract a lot of burrito lovers, judging from this thread.</p>

<p>You managed to stick in Chipotle burritos in your essays? I like that.</p>

<p>Sounds like a plan, sorry it's not during business hours or I would assume we are both getting in. As it is, outlook is not good. </p>

<p>How did you manage to work Chipotle into your essay? I am impressed. </p>

<p>I am officially naming Stanford Slaughter Day as Eat a Giant Burrito day. Its going to be crazy. In a big way.</p>

<p>chipotle is the new chocolate for girls on rejection day. I love that place. every college visit i go on the first question i ask is "do you have a chipolae remotely near this campus?"</p>

<p>yes hookem!! thats exactly what i get</p>

<p>^I used to looooove those Chipotle gigantic enormous fajita burritos ... until I found out each one has an average weight of 1.5 lbs and has 1200 calories and 50 grams of fat ... with grilled chicken. </p>

<p>Too much food that's killer. </p>

<p>But you do get the bang for your buck though.</p>

<p>^Actually i think its around 2000 for each burrito. But I think that is with guac.</p>

<p>and not to mention the ridiculous amount of sodium in those...</p>

<p>BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I'm going to eat them anyways! >:)</p>

<p>Hahahaha at 5'10" and 150 lbs, I'm a guy with a crazy metabolism that never gets fat. Ever. I eat donuts and cookies and 2000 calorie burritos on a daily basis, but nothing happens. I do work out so that my arteries don't get clogged and so that I look "fit" instead of "skinny," but..yeah...I don't count calories lmao</p>

<p>Hehe, I talked about burritos and linguistics in my intellectual vitality essay. I hope my admissions officer likes Chipotle as much as we do. :D</p>
