<p>For the time being, it's see you later College Confidential.
And Goodbye for now Columbia College.</p>

<p>I'm off.... going to prepare thoroughly for my RD schools.</p>

<p>And start to let go of my obssessive Columbia dream. </p>

<p>These Nov SAT 2 scores have brought me back to reality.. and I think I really need tons of contingency plans.</p>

<p>Following the example of nylover/Tiffany... I'm going to go out and live...
Make use of these next 3 weeks and be productive!</p>

<p>And I won't open that Columbia envelope and email till all my RD apps are finished.</p>

<p>Thank you all of you - for always being there to give advice and support !</p>

<p>I really wish you ALL the best of luck.</p>

<p>I'll be praying for myself and for all you other die hard Columbia obssessives.</p>

<p>Wish so much to meet you all at Columbia one day.......... In the meantime I'm going to prepare for a 'fall back'.</p>

<p>Cheers! - Have a good one! :)</p>

<p>Always, Christina xx</p>

<p>christinaa...haha the columbia thread isn't going to be the same at all without you. don't let the scores get to you...they're just numbers that you won't remember 4 years from now. I really hope you (and all of us) make it to columbia. keep us posted if anything big happens.</p>

<p>"And I won't open that Columbia envelope and email till all my RD apps are finished."</p>

<p>Haha, are you stupid? It'd be great if you spend days working on your other apps only to discover that your work was futile because you got in.</p>

<p>Or what if you do half-ass job because you're sort of assuming you'll get in?</p>

<p>i couldn't quite leave guys..i'm having cc withdrawal symptoms..

<p>i love you guys too much! i think i'm gonna have to come back once in a while. but for sure i will tell u whatever happens to me. i'll probs be obssessively posting after dec 15th.</p>

<p>franklinbrown - if i get R from columbia i don't think ill be able to finish my RD apps, that's why i have to do it before dec 15th, and if i'm not finished by then.. i won't open that email or envelope till i am.</p>

<p>And remember.. about 1 in 3 people get in early :) Bon chance!!!! Good luck!!!!!!!</p>

<p>But if some of us don't get in... it's ok... There are so many other schools out there and maybe everything works out for the best ~ Heads up guys!
All of us will get to the place we're meant to get to.</p>
