The Countdown

<p>haha, no attractiveness has nothing to do with admissions, but it is one more thing to be depressed about.</p>

<p>24 hrs officially! in new york city!</p>

<p>Ohhh boy, it hurts to wait...</p>

<p>yeah, well try waiting with two finals on your mind as well</p>

<p>finals won't matter too much if you get in.</p>

<p>unless you fail them all and get your acceptence retained, then they really matter. sorry-that was my daily dose of pessimism!</p>

<p>Uh-oh guys...only 23 hours to go.</p>

<p>Yesterday night I went to a show, and that was probably the most amazing time in my life...so great!</p>

<p>Today I went to NYC and that was fun too.</p>

<p>Yet, this is still in my mind. Good luck to all!</p>

<p>I've been immersing myself in all the work I have to do due tommorow to try to distract myself. It's obviously not working as evidenced by my continual posting on this forum...ahhhh, the lovely disease of procrastination whose only cure is....well there really isn't a cure is there?</p>

<p>i got rejected from columbia and decided it was because i'm too normal-looking.</p>

<p>rejected because its "how will i fare"</p>

<p>21h left people!</p>

<p>here's a nice sensory image for you guys: every time I think about checking to see if I got in, I almost throw up. God, I'm so tense, I feel like crying.</p>

<p>i just keep thinking of going to school on tuesday and having everyone say, "ABBY DID YOU GET INTO BROWN??!!"--because you know everyone is going to ask--and me saying no.</p>

<p>^^ Same with me! It'll really suck having to tell everybody - especially my teachers - that I didn't get in :(</p>

<p>My son applied ED (MattyB) and just wanted to say good luck to everyone for tomorrow's decision. If it works out....great! But, if it doesn't, just realize that it is not the end of the world-there is a college out there for everyone and I guarantee you that you will be happy. Just look at it as Brown's loss! But, I do hope it works out for everyone.
Also, a friend told me that last year so many people were hitting the website at the same time that it took a few hours for her son to access the status site, so don't be alarmed if you can't get on right away.</p>

<p>.....crap i wanna know the second it turns 5...</p>

<p>Haha same with me semblare.</p>

<p>It's actually quite hilarious how you're all freaking out and nervous. (Sorry if that sounds mean - wait till next year and you're sitting in college procrastinating from studying for finals and being a loser by browsing random threads on CC and seeing people freaking out about getting into Brown will be quite funny to you too.) I remember I was in your position last year. It seems so long ago. Good luck everyone! Hope to see you next year at Brown!</p>

<p>lol...yeah i guess we are funny</p>

<p>but still....
i am so anxious....</p>

<p>is anyone else planning on checking during school "just in case?"</p>

<p>No... dont wanna use school comp for sumthing so sacred
although i may get stuck using a lab comp at my internship... which is better than the lousy school computers. so crazy slow... </p>

<p>but neway... i might go home after all my tough APs and just sleep out the wait... thats my way of dealing with panic. all i'd be missing is band and stats and civics, all of which are an insult to my intelligence
*puffs up big and important-like</p>

<p>just kiddin. but i do want to be unconscious for most of the wait...</p>
