stressing.

<p>i applied early. i am now waiting patiently for the responses. </p>

<p>i was just wondering how you guys are dealing with the anxiety about the letters that will be coming in the next 2 weeks.</p>

<p>Click n Smile......snail mail takes many more days. Click n Smile</p>

<p>I know this may be obvious but try not to think about it (especially when your about to go to sleep).</p>

<p>aww, my best friend comes in every day raving about some nightmare. And she's addicted to this site (won't name names) and... I just... the stress is there, for me... but I'm not ACTUALLY thinking about it. too much other stuff to think about (and stress about)</p>

<p>A good outlook to take is one that prepares you for the worst possible outcome...assume you won't get accepted and focus your mind on what other colleges you can see yourself going to and work to find those and work on those applications. Whatever happens happens...you can't change it now...admissions process is random so nothing is predictable..if you don't get accepted you can't beat yourself up for it..just look at it this way - colleges go for certain types of students to fill their diversity so if they don't choose you its no biggie because some other college will. I used to be paranoid and couldn't sleep thinking about my rejection letter from my ED school..but you have to put things into perspective - you've done what you could...you can't dwell on the past, only on the future and what you can do to pave a new path that will take you farther. GL everyone...occupy your time elsewhere.</p>
