<p>My letter came in today.</p>
<p>Finally got to celebrate properly with some vodka and coke and a friend's house. Then we got our nerd on - listening to Oasis and reading Ginsberg and some of her own poetry. Fun times.</p>
<p>Already? Wow, mail travels really fast. I hope I get mine Monday.</p>
<p>No mail here on the Gulf Coast. I'm hoping to get it Monday.</p>
<p>no mail and i'm in souther cali!!! <em>biting nails</em>
Oasis and Ginsberg!! that's hot! why didn't i think of that? brilliant. does it smell like victory?</p>
<p>Forgot to mention that we also read/recited our favorite passages from The Great Gatsby, which she's reading for school - I knew my personal favorites from memory.</p>
<p>And damn, she's only a junior and wants to be a writer, and after reading her prose and poetry... damn, tenth grade her is a damn sight better than I am now at the craft, and I want to pursue it as well.</p>
<p>I made a promise to my friends that on December 15, I would either get drunk off champaign or cheap liquor. I ended up using Grey Goose Vodka, Bacardi 151, and Crown Royale. Now people are saying I broke my deal. Opinions?</p>
<p>Close enough.</p>
<p>haha me and my friends had the same deal. champagne at one table, hard liquor and beer at the other. sadly, only my friend who got deferred from yale had to resort to the hard liquor table. the rest of us got wasted on cheap champagne, which we drank from styrofoam cups.</p>
<p>Perhaps I shouldn't be posting here - my friend's mom (he's in at Stanford too) wanted to know so badly if I got in, she tracked me down to this forum on the Internet and told people (including some of the admin at my school) that I got in. Hopefully she's still not checking.</p>
<p>And if you are, Mrs. Duplinsky, hi!! :)</p>
<p>i just find it hilariously ironic that the accepted and the rejected people celebrate/mourn in the exact same way.
Grey Goose Vodka, Bacardi 151, and Crown Royale? close enough, and better than the Smirnoff leftovers i found hidden in the cabinet.</p>
<p>My friend to his comp sci/calc teacher:
"If I get into UPenn, I'm breaking out the whiskey; if I don't, I'm drowning in the whiskey."</p>
<p>haha. thats so funny. My friends and I celebrated by calling up Jack, Bud, Mike, and the Captain. Being December, we decided to also include the stuff that tastes like christmas (it has gold flakes in it). We drank from some Goblets of Fire that we from some fast food joint's Harry Potter promotion. </p>
<p>151--- it makes my tummy go #&$<em>^#&</em>^ just thinking about it. Any1 ever had Everclear?</p>
<p>no, but i was always curious. my older brother said it was intense. absinthe anyone, even though its illegal?</p>
<p>everclear is like a tsunami of gross in your mouth. it's illegal here in PA cuz some kids decided to chug it and died so we venture to our neighbor NJ. I was just wondering wut other ppl's take on it was.</p>
<p>my friend's bro went to Europe and brought back absinthe. It's so sweet, in the sugary sense.</p>
<p>well, hate to bring back this thread...but anyone know what happens if I get a C this second semester? if it's 1 c and like 1 b and all As, will i go to hell? (ie anywhere but staford)</p>
<p>someone mentioned a while ago that he/she got in with a D second semester but got threatened...do i REALLY have to start going to school again? bummer</p>
