The "I got a visit from the UPS guy!!!" Thread =D

<p>Title says it all. :D </p>

<p>I am SO thankful for snow days. </p>

<p>What date are you going? I'm Feb. 29-March 1. </p>

<p>Congratulations to all who got a folder! My condolences to anyone who ends up not getting one.</p>

<p>Approximately 19% of applicants will receive an invitation to the candidates' weekend.</p>

<p>My friend Eli is waiting for his package...he's out of his mind with anticipation.</p>

<p>Me toooooo. We're sitting eating lunch and then a little something gets dropped in the door. My mom and I look at each other and then we go to the door.</p>

<p>So excited! Very dramatic. March 7-8th!</p>

<p>CONGRATULATIONS!
It's an incredible feeling, isn't it?
CW is so much fun. You will all have a blast and really get a feel for Olin. And you will get to meet many of us Oliners. I have to say, that although we take our work very seriously, we also take having fun "seriously"!</p>

<p>So, do you all have to send in a picture and "saying/description/etc."?</p>

<p>See you all soon, and CONGRATULATIONS, again!</p>

<p>OMG OMG OMG now I'm really nervous!! (Okay, dramatic? A little). AHHHH.</p>

<p>Important Q: Did you have to sign for it? I ask because if I'm sleeping (I haven't been asleep all night--non Olin related) won't they leave it outside my door?</p>

<p>And congrats to those who have received an invite so far!</p>

<p>YES!!! CW March 7-8! Best of luck to all!</p>

<p>You and me both, Kevin... ahhhhhh. I wish they sent rejection letters overnight too - I just want to end the waiting. BAHHHH.</p>

<p>No need to sign. But Kevin, I don't see you being able to take a nap.</p>

<p>Hahah you're right...no napping for me! Really, I am so full of anticipation right now! Every time I hear something outside I hope it's the UPS truck! </p>

<p>At 7 I'm starting the "I didn't get a visit from the UPS guy" thread if need be. I hope I don't have to do that.</p>

<p>Seriously, Olin's app. was the one that I was actually satisfied with. I loved how we attached the resume instead of merely listing activity/hours. I mean, really how can you get any kind of understanding of the depth of my activities if I just TELL you what they are!?</p>

<p>OMG FEB 29-MARCH 1 CW!!!!!!!!! (look forward to meeting you, eravial)</p>

<p>good luck to everybody who hasn't gotten theirs yet!</p>

<p>Feb 29 - March 1!!!! </p>

<p>I'm so excited. I drove home before crew practice this afternoon (even though there's only a half hour between the end of school and crew), just to check. There was a package there (something my mom ordered), but no envelope. I was so freaked, because I thought UPS had come and brought nothing... </p>

<p>But then I came home from crew and there it was!!! </p>

<p>I'm soo excited.</p>

<p>I'M INTO CW!!!!!</p>

<p>Oh my god, I seriously did not think I would get one... I was heating up some frozen french fries as a comfort food when the doorbell rang and I practically gave the UPS guy a hug. AHHHHH HAPPY.</p>

<p>February 29-March 1st by the way!!!</p>

<p>I just got mine....now.
So there is still hope!</p>

<p>Any one in California get it yet?</p>

<p>Texas, got it, March 7-8 :)</p>

<p>Hey, I'm in PA, and I got mine around 6:30 PM. The UPS guy in this area usually comes once in the morning and then a second time (for pick-ups?) around 3 PM. I was pretty much losing hope and resorting to online flash games for distraction for several hours... and then, DING DONG! :) So that's that. I sincerely wish a big fat g'luck to those still waiting!! </p>

<p>'Til Leap Day, 0.5 * CW candidates!!!!</p>

<p>One of my friends got a visit from the UPS guy earlier today (she lives in California). She probably is still out of the country, so it'll be a nice welcome home surprise.
Don't give up hope yet if you haven't gotten yours yet! =)</p>

<p>Hooray for all the invites! I was actually in downtown Chicago waiting in the subway when my mom calls - UPS envelope!!! I couldn't believe it at first, but now I've seen it with my own eyes! (March 7-8)</p>

<p>Got it in California :)
Man, is anyone else from the West having trouble scheduling flights to Logan to arrive between 8:00AM - 2:00PM? It's so hard to coordinate! </p>

<p>Can we have a CC meet-up at Olin somehow? :P
Oh, Feb. 29-Mar. 2 here.</p>

<p>inconnu,
Your best bet is to either take a red-eye which will usually get you in around 6-8AM or a morning flight which won't get you in until 4-6PM.</p>
