<p>hehe, get a mac, I can type all sorts of </p>
<p>accepted: silent screams and then high pitched shrieks while i call people and sob incoherently
waitlisted: the feeling that comes when you get a 99 on a test instead of a 100 on a math test because of a simple addition error
rejected: cry and deal with feelings of worthlessness for a good month.</p>
<p>h^2 you are not worthless at all, you have been a voice of moderation</p>
<p>thanks sempitern...however, it is quite sad how one measly envelope can temporarly disable your common sense.</p>
<p>Coming from someone who has experience of the thin envelope - four of them at once, in fact - the feelings of utter and abject patheticness lasts less than 72 hours. You get over it surprisingly quickly, but it's not a pleasant experience.</p>
<p>accepted: nice...probably won't scream because that's just not something i do.......i don't think i'd tell anyone because i hate being the center of attention (loner type) </p>
<p>waitlisted: ...blah...</p>
<p>rejected: oh well. it's my fault, and i dont cry about my failures because that's not going to make them go away. princeton told me what it wanted---someone who has fully taken advantage of every opportunity they've had in their life i didn't fit into that category, so nothing left to do except keep working toward that goal.....princeton or no princeton.</p>
<p>someone (and enco has mentioned this too), that's why I'm seriously considering getting a mac! Accent keys mmm</p>
<p>LOL, hmm..true...I never considered that option (in reference to Beechbum's comment)</p>
<p><a href="Hey,%20all--haven't%20had%20internet%20access%20in%20ten%20days!%20A%20record!">i</a>*</p>
<p>accepted: Can't yell TOO loud (will be in an internet cafe in Vienna, lol).
rejected: Wahoo wa. (Go, U.Va.)</p>
<p>Kebree..I'm tempted to click "Report Offensive Post"</p>
<p>Go to UVa?</p>
<p>Sure. </p>
<p>You mean Harvard, right?</p>
<p>Haha...maybe assuming I actually get into Harvard. My thinking is that if I can't get into Princeton after having applied ED, it's not likely that I'll get into Harvard. I know they're different schools, etc., but still--it just seems unlikely.</p>
<p>EDIT: But don't get me wrong. I would definitely love a Harvard acceptance...</p>
<p>That's what I thought but it turns out not to be so. Princeton can only take so many (590 compared to 885 EA at harvard, for example) and they have to defer a LOT. Also, you had that weird transcript situation. Plus you're this magnificent artist from Kentuck who's studying in London. How much cooler (admissions wise) can you get?</p>
<p>Well...connections might help. But the interview was good, though, so maybe that'll even out the odds. (<em>Thinks, 'I've been in Britain too long...'</em>)</p>
<p>i would kick it with my oz of canadas finest ive been saving for the moment, and a few bottles with a few close friends.</p>
<p>then, i would lay on my back in my local park and watch the stars</p>
<p>Accepted: I have no idea. It would be the happiest moment of my life. I'd probably carefully open the package, pull out the enrollment info, fill it out, then postmark it and walk out and drop it in the mailbox.</p>
<p>Waitlisted: <em>Deep sigh</em> Open other acceptance packages. Start on letter to Princeton begging to get in.</p>
<p>Rejected: Do unmentionable things to the letter. Go to some other top 25 school. Become Rhodes Scholar. Send Rhodes-related info to Admissions Office. Muah ha ha.</p>

Am-aaazing. Je l'aime beaucoup!!</p>
<p>lol
oh this board feels like old times <em>tear</em> we tend to say that a lot huh?
But Kebree! <em>waves</em> we've missed you!</p>
<p>And Cav, that is awesome. I think I'll destroy my deferral and rejection letter together then, I still have the deferral letter sitting in the ziplock bag on my desk, torn into a million pieces. :D</p>
<p>MzLover3: oh well. it's my fault, and i dont cry about my failures because that's not going to make them go away.</p>
<p>temporarily feeling worthless is one thing, but don't ever consider it a failure or your fault if you are rejected. the only fault lies with the princeton's adcoms :) it's a testament to how hard you've worked that you had the qualifications to apply.</p>
<p>I'll never see my rejection letter since I won't be home until May 25th--WAY after the mailing date and WAY after my sister opens/mutilates/burns it. :)</p>
<p>If I get a rejection letter, that is. (Reverse knock on wood.)</p>
<p>Oh, and waitlisted? I have no idea...what a nightmare that would be. I'll refrain from thinking about it and potentially jinxing myself.</p>
<p>EDIT: Oh, lol..I'd thought about that too, cavalier302. Doing something really impressive, and then sending my resume to the office....come to think of it, it might be better for me [in the long run] if I am rejected, lol.</p>
<p>its not always a big envelope, my friend got into harvard and they sent him one sheet of paper and sent the other stuf later</p>
