| Getting in is exciting. However, any hopes of joining the FB network are probably futile anytime soon. I mean, I think I got my Columbia email address over the summer. Then again, I wasn't ED, so I don't know if you would get an email address much earlier than others. |

| I tried doing some stuff this weekend.
Though I did manage to get a couple things done, I could have done more...except I couldn't concentrate. |

| Ditto. I'm cramming in a lot of work I still need to get done for tomorrow and Tuesday...it's gonna be a long night.
I also haven't yet told my parents that Columbia decisions come out on Tuesday. I plan to tell them immediately when I get the decision, of course, but I decided I didn't want them getting even more nervous and worked up on Monday and Tuesday knowing that it was going to be dropped in my mailbox any moment...I'm stressed enough for the three of us, and I wanted my internal "freaking out" that day to be private. Point is, they still think decisions don't come until next weekend--when everyone else hears--and they're trying to get me to finish more applications so I won't have wasted an entire week waiting for the 15th. Sometimes it makes me want to just explode and tell them I only have to wait until the 11th, but...nah. I'll just see what happens. |

| samuelc, at least you had an acceptance dream. I had a deferral dream. The horror! But I guess that's infinitely better than the rejection dream. Ugh.
At this point I just want this process to be over, but I bet the admissions officers feel exactly the same way lol. Imagine having to read all our applications...o.O |

| I haven't told my mom either that they're releasing the results on Tuesday. I don't want her breathing down my neck tomorrow and Tuesday until 5 p.m.
I seriously can't stop my hands from sweating whenever I think about Tuesday. It all seems so surreal that I'm old enough to go to college and I've actually applied to Columbia. |

| What about a combined deferral/rejection dream? I had one of those last week...kept opening up my decision and only ever saw bad news of both kinds. I try to keep this whole college thing in perspective, especially regarding silly things like dreams, but that was a friggin terrifying night. (Easily beat out the dream I had where one of my classmates, who also applied ED to Columbia, got accepted and I just never got my decision at all.)
Still haven't had that beautiful acceptance dream... |

| I think mine began with "Congratulations" and ended with me ripping apart scholarship applications |
