<p>From ED experience, the cornell server crashed at 5 and i was refreshing the status page and CC at the same rate. Apparently, many people were doing the same thing since CC's server was down at 5;20. </p>
<p>Assuming similar scenario'll occur tmr since all the ivies are releasing the results, what are you guys gonna do during the waiting time?</p>
<p>porn…</p>
<p>go on with my normal life, geez.</p>
<p>Sit here and refresh and refresh and refresh and refresh and refresh…</p>
<p>Watch the Philadelphia Phillies home opener..in person. That’s where I’ll be all day.</p>
<p>Watch the New York Yankees home opener..in person. That’s where I’ll be all day.</p>
<p>Refreshing of course.</p>
<p>Watch neither the Phillies nor Yankess home openers… in person. That’s where I’ll be all day - not watching.</p>
<p>“Assuming similar scenario’ll occur tmr since all the ivies are releasing the results, what are you guys gonna do during the waiting time?”</p>
<p>this is when i break down and cry!</p>
<p>i’m saving the crying part to after i read the decision. It applies to both ways.</p>
<p>Haha, I’ll hate it if CC goes down too. Umm.. During the ED crash time, I started watching a movie, couldn’t focus, went outside and walked my dog, got antsy and came back in case it came up, went out with my boyfriend to chipotle, then went about 15 over the speed limit the entire way home at about 9 when a friend texted and told me it was back up.</p>
<p>I’m guessing I’ll follow the same pattern.. Except I have drama rehearsal from 6-8, and MAN will that be hard to focus during!</p>
<p>During the ED crash I went and watched the Extras series finale which I had recorded. Relaxed me.</p>
<p>i would die</p>
<p>crying. i don’t know if i should start crying around 4 or just wait.</p>
<p>On the ED night, I had to be back at my school at 7 to tech a choir concert. I sat in my kitchen refreshing until I really had to leave then I went and sat at school in the lighting booth texting and calling the other 5 people who applied. They all found out before I did and I knew whether they were in or not before I did. Maybe 5 or 6 times I sprinted out of the lighting booth to a room with a computer but had no luck getting on. The last time, it said “CONGRATULATIONS” and I just started bawling. I ran out of the room past the entire concert choir and found my friend who was sitting down and basically just hugged her for like 5 minutes straight.</p>
<p>OH and when the server crashed, the title of the page like what now says “When Cornell server AND…” had this little " 
sorry" that made me think I got rejected. Just a warning, don’t freak out.</p>
<p>it took me four hours to get my decision, and they were the longest four hours of my life. I was watching a movie with my laptop , pressing refresh every three seconds. I cursed out Cornell a million times, but I love it now..lol</p>
<p>ahh.. i have volleyball practice at 6…and i have 4 ivies to check…is this going to work out?</p>
<p>I have show choir practice at 6 as well and I’m checking 2 Ivies. I told my director I’m probably going to be a little late, but yeah I don’t want to have to miss other things just to endure the long and painful wait.</p>
<p>I will probably take a nap when I get home to get myself settled. Then I will meditate for a bit to make myself calm before checking the decisions at 7 PM (Mountain time; so about 4 hours after decisions are out).</p>
<p>yeah… same here. and we have the conference championship game tomorrow…so…i probably shouldn’t be late…</p>
<p>Ahh, the ED server crash was horrible! Since I’m on central time, I was supposed to find out at 4. So, after class (school ends at 4 for me) I stayed back for a few minutes trying to get the decision, but couldn’t. Then, I decided to go home and try, but experienced the worst traffic of my life. At home, I couldn’t get it, so I danced around nervously. Then some message from Cornell came up saying that decisions wouldn’t be available until the next morning. I couldn’t take it, I had to eh…compromise my state of mind. Well, in that state, I checked again, and lo and behold, the decision was up! Then I had to call all of my friends who had been calling to find out if I got in in my new state of mind, so everyone thought I was just eerily calm/unexcited.</p>
