*The countdown thread*

<p>"All my friends think that because I'm val I will get in for sure. And then I'm like NO its NOT THAT EASY!!! Aaaaaaaaaah"</p>

<p>Urg, I know exactly what you mean.</p>

<p>2 Weeks!!!</p>

<p>From the last paragraph of the Harvard Gazette story about this year's increase in early applications: "Early Action meetings began on Nov. 16. Students requesting e-mail notification will learn of the Admissions Committee's decisions after 5 p.m. Dec. 15, and letters will be mailed the same day."</p>

<p>So they've been meeting on early applications for two weeks now. Here's a link to the full story: <a href="http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2006/11.30/09-admissions.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.news.harvard.edu/gazette/2006/11.30/09-admissions.html&lt;/a>. Good luck to everyone who's applied.</p>

<p>the day that we get our decisions is the day before my school's winter break starts, so when we get back from break, if I get in, i'm wearing a zoot suit to school.</p>

<p>Wow two weeks now. Good thing I'll be busy until then.</p>

<p>On Harvard's admissions homepage, I happened to run my mouse over the Admitted Students section, and it said Welcome Class of 2011! Don't worry. You will all find out very soon.</p>

<p>only 12 days!</p>

<p>Ahh! Scary! But on the bright side, it's snowing! :)</p>

<p>I want snowwww</p>

<br>

<p>Yay it's snowing tomorrow! 1-3" for me!</p>

<p>I'M SO JEALOUS.</p>

<p>It was supposed to snow yesterday, but alas! No such luck.</p>

<p>Haha, we had snow on Friday. We got about a foot of it so my school closed for the day (this is extremely rare because my school is loaded and pretty much has their own fleet of snow plows). It was my school's first snow day in 14 years, and I live in Northern Illinois.</p>

<p>Is anyone else get a wee bit more tense?</p>

<p>UVA, William&Mary's, and a couple other places sent decisions last week.</p>

<p>Columbia, MIT, and some other ones are this week.</p>

<p>A lot of my classmates have been getting decision letters back. Nervewracking for them, to say the least.</p>

<p>Bottom line: Anxiety is contagious.</p>

<p>Yeah luckily all the kids that applied from my school seem to be getting the letters on December 15. But it is a bit contagious. Kids are waiting from Dartmouth, NYU, and BC (like a bunch of them there). I am excited. But nervous.</p>

<p>Do email decisions generally come a bit earlier or later than 5:00 pm on 12/15?</p>

<p>later; most are out by 6:00</p>

<p>I can't stop imagining things that may happen on 12/15.
I don't know what I will react!
God, I am nervous!</p>

<p>I'm glad 12/15 is a Friday so I don't have to look at people's faces.</p>

<p>wow, 45 days pass fast. it's like yesterday when i submitted my early app...</p>

<p>heck, it's like last sunday cuando yo me fui para los estados unidos</p>
