<p>I always feel like the underdog.</p>
<p>Why should the white kid who has everything handed to him on a silver platter get everything undeservingly, while the poor Asian kid has to work twice as hard just to get a platter at all. Lol.. I'm so bitter and ill-informed.. gooooo me!</p>
<p>krabble, def. know what you mean with the essay, one part of me is thinkin its all i have, and the other part is wondering if theyre even going to do more than glance at it...each day i imagine how im going to react to a rejection letter and its hard..ah man we all need to get out more...because the more i read about penn..the more i set myself up for dissapointment...in the end we're probably gonna be happy no matter where we end up..</p>
<p>i miss how easy optimism used to be</p>
<p>well we're rooting for you. get some cheerleaders. drink gatorade. go beg adcoms. play some football. talk to your socks. don't kill yeself</p>
<p>doesnt it make you feel good to have the whole cc upenn board rootin for you?</p>
<p>I mean, is it terrible that most of my extracurricular activities are within school? The only thing I do outside of school is a sport and the violin. I feel like trash compared to those with research work or business experience and all that jazz..</p>
<p>all that jazz, lol. you're clearly a good person, and you've got a couple hundred people pulling for ya. just let the admissions people see that. </p>
<p>i haven't any jazz either, :(</p>
<p>stay with us!!!</p>
<p>haha... me too... wow, we're all nuts...</p>
<p>Don't stress out! All you can do is put together a KILLER app and cross your fingers, hoping for the best. We're all stressed right now...so hopefully we will all get in where we want :D GO US! </p>
<p><em>gives everyone self esteem</em></p>
<p>woohoo!</p>
<p>telepathy~~~~~~</p>
<p>It's going to suck when we all talk about our rejection/acceptance for Penn. I know exactly who will get in and who will get rejected (well actually, just one--me). It's going to suck knowing that they all got accepted except for me, and it's going to be a sucky feeling knowing that I got rejected because I didn't discover the cure for cancer or win 100 awards. I'm terribly sorry that I spend my time in school clubs, pep rallies, and fundraisers instead of going out and solving world hunger. AGAIN I'M SO BITTER ARGH!</p>
<p>wooo were so supportive! see ...this is what this board needs! not any of that SAT posting-extracurricular comparing crap that usually goes on!</p>
<p>vent, boy. vent.</p>
<p>Wooohooo!!</p>
<p>It's just going to majorly suck. At one point in time, I truly thought I was going to get admitted.</p>
<p>don't you wish you knew what we know now back in 9th, tenth grade??</p>
<p>georgie: b/c it's down to the wire, gut-check time, photo-finish, i sent it- its away- my life hangs in the balance time</p>
<p>I'm actually not really scared of getting in to NYU Stern...lol. Im not really arrogant but I have back up schools and I chose all my schools with care and I KNOW I'll be very happy at my safeties too - so I love each one of my schools I'm applying to. So i think I'll be fine in the long run. The important thing is to choose a variety of schools and some safeties you would even love to go to, so that will make the experience a little easier.</p>
<p>I'm not the most super social awesome person ever with the best personality ever devised by the gods, but the qualified applicants at my school are dull. Literally, the Asian girls (my friends as well) spend their time reading anime comic books all day long (after studying for 10 hours). I'm not saying that anime is bad, but none of them join school clubs and aren't very social in that respect.</p>
<p>Making fun of others is making me feel better.</p>
<p>so now that its all in we can be nice to eachother instead of jealous...were all in the same boat...</p>
<p>did i mention i dont have paitence for this kinda waiting</p>
<p>i agree akhila. i love my safeties. i just LOVE penn, though</p>
<p>krabble: i think it's your bedtime. sleep. write essays. get in. don't worry, be happy (not depressed, man. you're bringing us down)</p>
<p>By the way, in the chance that we all get admitted, we should meet up for lunch some time. I'm sure we can find a great place in Philly.</p>
<p>or we can be nice to the people on the board and mean to others.. lol whatever works</p>
