<p>I went for a backup private and backup public in my state… Otherwise most applications were like Uchicago…</p>
<p>Go help John Carter, apparently Disney is expecting to lose 200 million on it.</p>
<p>Hmmm…I’m having dinner with a close group of friends night of decisions, so I’ll probably be sobbing over my sushi and their clothes.</p>
<p>Jkjk. I got into my UChicago equivalent, so I’ll live for a while longer…until the cost kills me. I’m crossing my fingers for an acceptance and better financial aid. Soggy sushi doesn’t taste good.</p>
<p>Probably because it was such a bad movie. I don’t even expect a whole lot out of Disney movies to begin with but I thought that John Carter was really, exceptionally terrible.</p>
<p>But my friend who went with me really liked it… So I guess it’s good to some. I think watching a movie on decision day is a good idea though. Movies are great.</p>
<p>good luck everyone - hope to see some of you during prospie weekend or next fall!</p>
<p>Hmmm well there’s always watching project x instead. </p>
<p>I’m crossing my fingers too. I’m really looking forward to a change of scenery. Would any of you out there immediately accept admission on the 23rd if you got in or would you still wait. Since its my top choice I think id pay the deposit on the spot lol… assuming financia aid thinks we are as poor as my dad says.</p>
<p>A gallon of Blue Bunny brand ice cream and the Hunger Games premiere followed by an online premiere of Avatar: the Legend of Korra Saturday should keep my mind of things if worse comes to worse. I was a big enough fan of Avatar the Last Airbender that I should have mentioned it on my application.</p>
<p>To all applicants: </p>
<p>May the odds be ever in your favor!!</p>
<p>I haven’t even read the Hunger Games… I don’t know what I’m talking about.</p>
<p>Already bought 2 tubs of Haagen-Dazs ice cream, oh the goodness.</p>
<p>I won’t even feel my heart’s emptiness until the next day. ;D</p>
<p>I’m going to be skiing for the first time on Saturday, so hopefully falling down in the snow will keep my mind off my rejection (if that happens). UCLA also comes out on Friday, and I’m pretty sure I’ll get in there, so it should help ease the pain. Hopefully.</p>
<p>I guess whatever should happen will happen. As much as I think UChicago is the place for me, and as much as I believe it’ll help me reach my potential more than other places, I might not be a good fit there. And that might be the case for us all. You can never really know a college until you attend.</p>
<p>I think whatever happens should happen. If I get in, then I was right. If not, I was wrong. There’s nothing wrong with being wrong.</p>
<p>Also, I know like 5 people that are already there. I really wish I didn’t know anyone there. My idea of college is going to a place where I can form my identity, whatever that is. No one should know me. I don’t want to go in with people already having preconceived notions of who I am.</p>
<p>I really wish I didn’t know anyone at UChicago or that all my friends from camp didn’t apply there EA and get in because I really would like UChicago.</p>
<p>Maybe that’s part of growing - not letting other people’s perceptions of you change who you are. So maybe that’s best for me.</p>
<p>I’m obviously stressing a lot, and by reasoning through why I would/wouldn’t go there helps calm me down.</p>
<p>Cosmicdreamer, I really identify with your post(s). You sound very thoughtful and like you have a really good attitude about things. Thanks for calming my nerves, even if unintentionally. :)</p>
<p>I thought Korra debuted last sunday?</p>
<p>Edy’s Butterfinger Ice cream is on sale for 5.49… That’ll be my comfort food of choice that night.</p>
<p>I think I will just end up going to bed extra early Friday if a rejection comes. I cant eat ice cream or anything special when sad lol, nothing ends up tasting good. Id rather get a crappy day over with than wallow around. Ateast if I go to bed I can wake up with it one day closer to a different college’s decision.</p>
<p>Think I’ll buy triple chocolate ice cream yummmm</p>
<p>only like two more days!!! super exciting guys. I wish everyone luck and I can just say that where ever we end up going to school we will make the most out of every opportunity and excel :)</p>
<p>It comes out on the day of the Hunger Games premiere, so may the odds be ever in my favor.</p>
<p>Brace yourselves, decisions are coming.</p>
<p>Why does two days feel like such a long time right now!?!</p>
<p>Here’s to hoping. I love UChicago, and it’s one of my top choice colleges. I’m hoping the financial aid office is generous with me, as the tuition is definitely way higher than I can afford, and the government’s little EFC is absolutely ridiculous.</p>
<p>But I have to get in first. I’d really just love to get in, even if I eventually have to say no because I can’t afford to go. :)</p>
<p>Holy **** this is two days from now and I only just found out.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you all (but should there be only one place left, I hope you get a sudden likely letter from Harvard instead 
)</p>
