Revenge of the Rejects

<p>You know what, I'll admit that I didn't work as hard as I POSSIBLY could have in high school, but I still worked pretty darn hard! Like most people, I'm somewhat bitter and resentful about my big fat REJECTION (which was ironically very slim :-/). But you know what?!?!?! I'm going to learn from it! No more waiting until the last minute on every single assigment because I knew I was going to get an A anyways! No more cutting class! No more missed deadlines and late fees! and most imporant of all, no more PS2!!! </p>

<p>I'm going to work my hardest in every way wherever I end up going (not sure about that at the moment...) and eventually end up at Harvard---Law School. Nobody can stop me and Harvard College will regret not having accepted me for as long as I live because they'll be getting constant updates on whatever it is I accomplish with a big FAT red stamp on it:: "'09 Rejectee" </p>

<p>Well anyways, congratulations to those of you whose names were successfully drawn out of some hat! :) (...by that I don't mean people who were accepted didn't deserve to be....I'm just drawing attention to the randomness....)</p>

<p>its not the end of the world</p>

<p>You'll be okay -- better than okay :)</p>

<p>it's ironic how the phrase "it's not the end of the world" is overused. sure, not getting in to H is not the end of the world, but what about not getting in anywhere? how do you know it's not the end of the world?</p>

<p>Not getting in anywhere is not the end of the world because you can always take a year off or go to a community college and try again to get into a college next year. The world is full of highly educated and successful people who didn't go to a 4 year university right out of high school. Except in the case of actual death, there is always a Plan B.</p>

<p>amen..there's always hope.</p>

<p>MZLover, I like your conviction. I'll toast to that.</p>

<p>yeah, i ahve been thinkin of tt myslef since i got rejected by mit/harvard/wharton but tts ok.... i have big plans for undergrad now in singapore... maybe i shall coem here again for masters :D</p>

<p>Hey MZLover3, that's my plan exactly. I'm going to study like I've never studied before, and I'm going to see you at Harvard Law!!!!!!!</p>

<p>I dunno about you guys, but for me, going there for grad school won't be the same as if I were accepted as an undergrad. It's not about the name. I've always thought that being a Harvard undergraduate was a very unique experience; I was looking forward to the chance to be at Harvard because of that.</p>

<p>If Harvard weren't considered such a prestigious school (although I think that its prestige parallels the fact that it's such an amazing place to learn) my desire to attend wouldn't diminish. Grad school just isn't the same as that.</p>

<p>No more PS2 is a good idea.</p>

<p>"If Harvard weren't considered such a prestigious school (although I think that its prestige parallels the fact that it's such an amazing place to learn) my desire to attend wouldn't diminish. Grad school just isn't the same as that."</p>

<p>let me hear some honesty please.</p>

<p>but but but...its PS2!!!</p>

<p>lol jk</p>

<p>"let me hear some honesty please."</p>

<p>That was it. I'm sorry that it astonishes you to learn that some people want to <em>learn</em> rather than walk around and say "I go to Harvard."</p>

<p>What makes me mad is that Harvard had me dangling for months after being deferred. I wish they would have just gone ahead and rejected me. </p>

<p>Thats okay though, they'll regret rejecting me when I have tenure there in 20 years.</p>

<p>see you there, viogirl09! ;)</p>

<p>BCgoUSC, yes, me too! Once we're there, I propose we get the rest of the faculty worked up and vote no confidence on whatever admissions officers remain from 2005!</p>

<p>hahahahahahahaha :D</p>

<p>yes! most definetly.... and as a representative I'll sponsor a bill condemning admissions practices</p>

<p>hey, if the texas legislature gave honorable mention to hte boston strangler I can get a legislature to condemn harvard</p>

<p>of course, I'll send them a copy of my app along with the bill and say</p>

<p>"Is that admissions officer still there?"</p>

<p>I will going to college somewhere, work on that pristine GPA, get into Harvard Grad School and turn it down for some other grad school. When I write to them informing them of my decision, I'll make sure to include the following message in big red obnoxious letters-</p>

<p>** from sucharita- 09 rejectee
to Harvard- 09 rejectee **</p>

<p>MUAHAHAHAHAHA!</p>

<p>I'll stage a repeat performance for Yale except that the letters will be in blue.</p>

<p>The only school that will not get this is Princeton because when it rejects me it will be the first love of my life :)</p>

<p>awwwwwwwwwwwwww first love</p>

<p>yeah!!! it is really :) :) :)</p>
