<p>alright, I'll join the thread ;-) I'm slowly becoming addicted to CC and it's not a good thing ;-) how many days is it now? </p>
<p>Can someone google it for me? :)</p>
<p>36 :)</p>
<p>and I'm 0/2 for big scholarships at WashU and Davidson. <em>sigh</em> Yale's not looking good.</p>
<p>Don't worry hookem, I haven't gotten ANY acceptances yet. I got a deferral from Cornell and haven't heard from anyone yet.
I just need one acceptance... somewhere!</p>
<p>Ah! My excellent CC brethen hath kept our thread alive! What larks! And I daresay many of us shalt find our rightful places in His Heaven having given our time to such Humble and Pure a cause. Oh the Mirth.</p>
<p>Hahahahahaha IndiaRubber, you're INSANE.
:)</p>
<p>Anyway, this thread rocks my socks off. It's seriously the best thread on CC. Hands down.</p>
<p>^ Don't let the prophet hear!</p>
<p>Also, this is a great song, (I don't know if I've posted it before); YouTube</a> - Jamaica Beer Eyes - The Heights</p>
<p>yesssssssssssssssss accepted to my match school woooooop... it's nice to get something in the mail.</p>
<p>Yale,
I still love you, but I seem to be the only one working on this relationship.</p>
<p>lol ;-) you should break up with yale ;-) it'll give all of us a bigger chance :)</p>
<p>Congratulations,Me=pomegranate!! !</p>
<p>You know, I'm half-considering writing myself a Yale acceptance letter, slipping it under my door, and then waking up to...well, a Yale acceptance letter under my door!</p>
<p>Dear Miss X X,</p>
<p>We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted into Yale. Not only that, but we have made you your own IndiaRubber mobile, complete with leather seats and Yale Acceptee insignia (of course, we will mention that this was all our initiative to keep Your humility and Your dignity). We would also like to add a couple of exercise bicycles to the deal, the new ipod charger you've longed for ( we read minds and letters to Santa Claus [who was, surprise surprise, a Yalie]), some coconut oil and warm socks for those cold cold winters (male courtiers are also available and come in five hair colours and hair textures. These are all Yale-approved and also come wearing various volumes of cologne; to you the choice). Please accept our offer. We know you're dubious. We know the name "Yale" is not the most mellifluous but we want...heck we NEED you here. Be kind. Consider us. For each of us requires an IndiaRubber in our homes.</p>
<p>We love you.</p>
<p>Really. We do.</p>
<p>Really.</p>
<p>-Yale.</p>
<p>^ That would cost them some serious endowment monies. Some serious cash monies.</p>
<p>Shhh. Must you spoil everything I create?</p>
<p>Hey, I'm not saying it COULDN'T happen!</p>
<p>Also....with the exception of Yale....all the other thread indicators were dark just now....it looked so somber.</p>
<p>More somber than.......than Obama is going to try and sound for his State of the Union address.</p>
<p>I know the feeling. Time difference doesn't make things easier... Also, poor Obama. He encapsulates the sadness of pragmatism.</p>
<p>He encapsulates the state of entitlement.
The age of fear politics is OVER......But if we don't ACT NOW to pass my bill, the sky will fall!</p>
<p>There will be no lobbyists in the White House when I'm president.......except if we, uh, want them.</p>
<p>There will be bipartisanship! Unless I find it more convenient to just, you know, rest on my party's majority in Congress. </p>
<p>Hope and Change! Hope and CHANGE!</p>
<p>Whoa.
This thread has gone from uber-cool to uber-sketchy VERY fast.</p>
<p>@me=pomegranate: Congrats! I haven't been accepted ANYWHERE yet... I'm so worried.</p>
<p>@IndiaRubber: ME WANT ONE.
'Nuff said.</p>
<p><em>does a dance</em></p>
<p>33 days, 5 hours and 26 minutes!</p>
<p>I wonder how is everyone gonna spend his or her time counting down to the big day!</p>
<p>You know what I was thinking? Less than a year from now, people are going to be looking back at these posts, seeing how enthusiastic we all were, how much time, energy and effort we put into this whole app round.. and how some of us got rejected. Because some of us, alas, will. Maybe even me (gasp!). And then I might stab myself in the face for ever being hopeful, and expressing it online.</p>
<p>SO, prospective Yalies of the future! If I did, indeed get rejected, please do fish me out of the Seine. I will be wearing black pumps and a red scarf.</p>
<p>/rant</p>
<p>* Only * black pumps and a red scarf? lololol</p>
<p>^ Hohohoho.</p>
<p>You wish.</p>
<p>No I kid. I'll also be sporting a jaundiced complexion, a couple of teeth and a God, HeWhoMustNotBeNamedBlessedBeHisName, Yahweh and Ganesh t-shirt. Just in case they exist ( oh and taped to my arm will be a tape-player playing some sombre R.E.M.)</p>
