HAHAHAHA I see my original post at Today is the happiest day of my life.
inspired you a bit.

Congratulations, Hriundeli... I'll see you here this fall

Edit: I had forgotten you posted in my original thread. Ironic that now I get to congratulate you

UndulyLlamarific · 05-04-2007, 05:38 PM

Yay! I was hoping you'd get in.

bookworm · 05-04-2007, 06:28 PM

Did you call about the volleyball or did they call you first? CONGRATS

Chippers · 05-04-2007, 06:50 PM

Hriundeli,

Congratulations! I'm glad to see you get in because I could tell from your other posts that you really wanted to go to Caltech. I'll see you next year

magd · 05-04-2007, 07:41 PM

OMG YOU DID IT... YOU DID IT!

I am so completely jazzed for you -- and pleased that Caltech Admissions has done the right thing (even if it didn't give me financial aid!).

Wow, palm trees, Old Town, and the JPL, here you come.

But just be careful, we may prank you first....

wow...
waitlist SSP => IN SSP
waitlist Caltech => IN Caltech.

Wonder how MUCH stress you've got yourself into due to all that. ^_^ You'll have quite a story to tell... shows the importance of passion.
Congrats!

Congratulations!!! See you next year!

Hriundeli · 05-04-2007, 10:36 PM

Thanks, people!

TO: bookworm - neah, I didn't get a chance to tell them about Volleyball, but who cares? lol

TO: InquilineKea - hehe. Although you might call it hindsight bias (and it is indeed), even before I have applied EA, I thought the same story as with SSP (in terms of Waitlist). But I am so excited right now, I was about to run outside and scream, but... can't do it here in NYC, out of fear of being sent to a certain facility, he-he....
Maaan, am I happy...even those AP's can't make me any sadder.

But now, as 7 - months waiting period is over, there is another one, 4 - months long....which, to me, is going to be even more intense lol...

Aaaaaaaaaaaahh.....Thanks everyone!

Someone should start a forum like we've had for the past few years (lizzardfire started ours last year.)

Hriundeli · 05-04-2007, 11:33 PM

I know....but I am soo bad with computers, it's not even funny. I'm only good at breaking them

Any prefrosh computer wizards around?

Noldo · 05-04-2007, 11:44 PM

Congratulations, and I'll see you next year!

(Oh God, the four month wait. Especially murderous here, because school's done already and I have literally nothing to do except refresh CC in an idle sort of way.)

momofchris · 05-05-2007, 11:22 AM

Congrats Hriundeli! I've been rooting for you to get in ever since your post:
An entreaty to those attending Prefrosh Weekend

tokenadult · 05-05-2007, 04:22 PM

Congratulations. I always loved your screen name, so I was cheering you on.

Hriundeli · 05-05-2007, 10:22 PM

Thaanks again! You people (and Caltech) are so awesome!
