<p>@crazychic Hahha you are hilarious! Don’t know…guess that is why they call it a vibe. Arghhh…so nervous!</p>
<p>@crazychic just wondering. whats your intended major? Just to see if the vibe is right :)</p>
<p>I think that Chicago is need-blind. Therefore, applying for FA wouldn’t matter.</p>
<p>Crazychic is international, and so am I. U of C is not need-blind for internationals.</p>
<p>I did not know that. I’m sorry for spreading false information.</p>
<p>is anyone else obsessed with the Overheard at UChicago page on facebook?? i cant stop laughing every time i go on there!</p>
<p>@paracosm Lol I’ve never actually heard of it until now! But thanks for introducing it’s absolutely hysterical!</p>
<p>@david I’m applying for english
what was the vibe? ;)</p>
<p>i think since d-day officially starts around 5 pm today, and ends 5 pm-ish tomorrow, we can un-forbid talking about D’s beginning this evening. how does that sound? </p>
<p>and what is this overhead uchicago FB page? i can’t seem to find it</p>
<p>@neontissues I think the page paracosm was talking about was the overheard at uchicago page, I tried posting the link but it didn’t link to that :(</p>
<p>PLEASE LET’S OBSESS ABOUT D-DAY!!!</p>
<p>I really, really hope I don’t get flat-out rejected. it would be a huge blow to my confidence and that would really not help with RD apps.</p>
<p>Neontissues, you are probably feeling pretty secure about yourself, haha. With offers from Georgetown and Babson in hand, who wouldn’t feel confident about this process!</p>
<p>Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here! One more day, calm down and go on with your day.</p>
<p>YES LET’S OBSESS OVER D DAY
I just found out that I’m graduating from school seven days after I was originally supposed to because my exams are getting over later. 2013 has been such a bad year, I hope I get to end it on a good aka UChicago note. #triskaidekaphobic #we’reawesomenomatterwhat #Ihatethespacebar
(And yes I wrote a whole lot more, but I removed it) @omar way to keep it together #respect</p>
<p>timer for anyone interested in doing nothing for the next day but staring at their computer:
[Generic</a> Calendar/Clock - Countdown to Dec 18, 2013 4:30 PM in Chicago](<a href=“Countdown Timer – Countdown to Dec 18, 2013 4:30 pm in Chicago”>Countdown Timer – Countdown to Dec 18, 2013 4:30 pm in Chicago)
the timer puts decisions at around 4:30 pm which is around when they released last year as well</p>
<p>@crazychic no worries! i actually found the fb page by simply replacing the *****'s with facebook. com and it worked. obviously i am unable to discern “overheard” from “overhead” -________- but yea…the fb group looks like a center for glorified bashing and witty criticism: my kind of place!</p>
<p>@international i definitely have a weight lifted off my shoulders, so in that sense i feel secure knowing i have a wonderful school to go to. not feeling so great about uchicago though. i’m almost betting on a deferral, but an acceptance would quite possibly make my life haha</p>
<p>@tips1660 i have a countdown going on my phone. it adds to my excitement. i think anxiety is no longer an emotion in my ever-lessening array of possible feelings to express</p>
<p>So I just talked to my regional counselor and she said it should be mid afternoon, central time. Well, at least the late afternoon turned into a mid afternoon!
@neon I guess I forgot that UChicago applicants are smart enough to think of that 
and I have a countdown on my phone too! I’ve had it for 4 days. Though more anxiety for me than excitement :(</p>
<p>I’m probably going to check here a million times tomorrow to see if you guys got your results. I’m literally terrified to check the UChi portal :(</p>
<p>@itapitamou have hope! May the odds be ever in your favor :)</p>
<p>what exactly <em>is</em> mid-afternoon though? evening is technically sunset, right? and that’s a little after 4pm in chicago these days. so would mid afternoon be before 4? HAHA SORRY i’m just starting to freak out. i’m so nervous :(</p>
<p>yipppeeee! accepted to northeastern honors college (with around 35k). unfortunately that is not enough aid for me to attend. farewell NEU :(</p>
<p>silly me…i forgot chicago has CST and MA has EST. sigh…guess i won’t find out until even later because i have gymnastics. oh well. don’t want that agonized waiting-for-portal-to-load-but-it-won’t-work-because-too-many-people-are-on feeling anyway!</p>
