<p>i got into notre dame</p>
<p>i got into notre dame
an accomplishment not so lame
i really like that place
except in -38 wind chill when it freezes your face
if i got into harvard by a long shot
prolly i would go but im scared i wont cop
as much as i would in ND
after all its the golden dome you see
ill get more golden dome
than at harvard, alone.</p>
<p>i will second that my friend amc – good look in good ol’ notre d.
you’ll love it there, the campus is a beauty; not to mention it’s the place that made rudy.
the irish fight well in college football, unfortunately penn state leave’s me more enthralled.
because my friends goes there, but nobody cares.
i hope you get into harvard though too, so that in the yard, we could write haikus.</p>
<p>That’s okay; I love this thread enough to accept it regardless of its ambiguous sexuality. LOVE IS BLIND.</p>
<p>I had a dream last night that I got accepted to Harvard. Dean Fitzsimmons showed up, gathered all the applicants in my state, and read the names of the applicants who were accepted. I knew when he read my name, 'cuz he paused before the last name (It’s Polish, no one pronounces it right). It was a startingly realistic dream, and I specifically remember thinking, “oh good, now I can look at the viewbook, because I don’t have to worry about falling in love with a school I won’t get into!”</p>
<p>It’s awfully early for dreams about to decisions to start, I better get off CC…</p>
<p>I dream about Harvard daily. Then I wake up and remind myself “29,000! 29,000! 29,000!”</p>
<p>…</p>
<p>Life. :(</p>
<p>we could write haikus
and count by twos
and skip to our loos
and make bold moves</p>
<p>we could get girls too
pick them up with my shoe
spit game and say your from harvard?, me too!
or if they go to some other schoo’
i’ll say ‘im from harvard, how do you do?’
and shizam! its like instant glue,
all the girls would want to be our beau.</p>
<p>squaregirl
dont worry
you wont do poorly
harvard isnt everything
sometimes it’s for ding-a-lings
if you don’t get in, who cares?
if someone makes fun of you, tell em to shove it up theirs.</p>
<p>yea, yea i’m feeling your flow a-m-c – let the chicks jump onto our b-e-d. but though i can bend them all from cambridge to harlem, the problem is i only got me one condom. we make bold moves and we get not one, but two, beauties on both sides and four point oh’s – say you’re from harvard, let the other girl say “oh!” let the haters say “no, i go to MIT, harvard ain’t as good as MIT.” smack that man times three and say “you can’t do like me, no, no, no, no, no, you can’t do like me – cuz i go to h-town so the sit the **** down and stop messing around, stomping my (harvard) yard, you want a pound a chronic?”</p>
<p>squaregirl, you’re still straight like a square – so don’t despair, even if you don’t get into harvard it’s easy to become a cash money millionaire. so keep up like a square’s ninety degree angles, and don’t get entangled or mangled in too much stress.</p>
<p>@amc131 - LOVE THAT.</p>
<p>Hi, I just had a question about whether or not anyone is stressing about admissions? I mean, I am just getting really, really, really nervous as the day is coming and you all seem so nonchalant!</p>
<p>Help me!!!</p>
<p>Nah, we just embrace our imminent rejection. ;)</p>
<p>wow prophet, i see you everywhere! i think we apped all the same schools haha.</p>
<p>thanks guys for keeping me sane throughout the waiting process. best of luckkkk :)</p>
<p>Great Thread. There is some good energy going around here. Its kinda ironic, because the more I accept the imminent rejection (as square girl describes it), the better I feel. Shrek maybe you should do likewise. The prophet you seem like one of the few people I have seen posting on CC (as well as my visit to the Harvard campus) that actually seem like someone I can have fun with at an Ivy school. Everyone here (including myself to a point) has an obsession of grades, community service (even though half the CCers just do it for the sake of college apps), Ex-Cs, SAT, etc. No one can just chill out and write poems or talk unrealistically about chasing women (at Harvard of all places). I respect that quality and I hope that shows up for admissions. As Jay-Z puts it: “You can pay for school, but you cant buy class”. I personally get the impression that most Ivy hopefuls/students lack a normal sense of humor or fun. Anyways good luck to everyone.</p>
<p>I absolutely have a normal sense of humor. I think. Does Monty Python count? </p>
<p>Love that comment about imminent rejection, squaregirl! :)</p>
<p>I did not say you had no sense of humor lol. Relax. Yes, Monty Python counts. What I mean by sense of humor is any type but intellectual humor.</p>
<p>Haiku:</p>
<p>Many applicants
Maybe five percent get in.
A fast tricycle.</p>
<p>Aww, but intellectual humor is such fun! When I took the SAT, I saw a kid who had a t-shirt that said, “I’m positive I lost a neutron”. lulz.</p>
<p>Maybe I don’t belong at Harvard- I’ve never been good at haikus. :p</p>
<p>shrek – noting you have posted on both harvard and yale boards, i have some simple advice for you on how to ease your tension. one sentence:</p>
<p>listen to the entire graduation album by kanye west – most especially good morning and good night (a bonus track).</p>
<p>this will help. trust me. i was raised in the countryside man, i love country music, but i have to say, this album will definitely let you loose. if you don’t like it, look in other places: tupac, kenny chesney, madonna, n’sync, bob marely. but music will set you free.</p>
<p>YES! I love Kanye. I haven’t heard the bonus track though, let me see if that loosens me up. Hey guys thanks for everything though, but I still don’t really want to embrace my “imminent rejection,” I want to hope I’ll get in!!! And you all too!!!</p>
<p>REJECTION LIMERICK #1</p>
<p>The mailman just left me a letter
I’m hoping it makes me feel better
But I’m really not stokin’
To rip it right open
Cuz it’s thin and I’ll wail like Ed Vedder</p>
