What will you do up til 5:00 on April 1st?

What will you do to pass the time all day? Will you check your decision right at 5?

For me, I'm in school (spring break starts the next week), so I'll be at school all day, and then I have play rehearsal until 4:30. I think I'll hang out at school until like 4:55, and
by the time I get home it'll already be 5:20 (yeah I like kind of far from my school)

Idk, I just think I'd be too stressed if I tried to go on right at 5 and the servers were busy or the emails were late or something...although that car ride will be death knowing that my decision is out there

I'll be in a corner, crying in fetal position. Then when 5:00 PM rolls around (4 PM for my local time), I'll uncurl myself and crawl over to my computer only to return to fetal position, traumatized.

School until 2:30. Club until 3:30-4:00. Home 5 minutes later. I'll be on the Internet immediately, probably, and I'll constantly refresh until they come. D:

It's 10:00 am on Saturday morning for me. I'm going to get up at 8, check emails, take my dog for a walk, check emails, take my dog for another walk, check emails, take my dog for yet another walk .....
on and on like this until my inbox has one unread letter sitting in it. At this point I will EXPLODE. then perhaps I'll read the email

Sadly, I'll be in a mandatory book group discussion when it's posted. Those 2 extra hours are going to go by tortuously slow.
It's at times like these that I wish I had an iPhone.

Harvard acceptance or Harvard denial? We have an app for that! (iPhone-Harvard parody)

I think this (alongside Princeton) is the university I will be apathetic about. I mean, it's freaking Harvard. Expect to get rejected for sure.

Need to find out if you've been rejected from Harvard? Now there's an App for that. Guaranteed to be accurate 92% of the time

Code:
//@@ViewPort.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface ViewPort:UIView{
	CGRect rect;
	UILabel *reject;
}
@end

//@@ViewPort.m
#import "ViewPort.h"
@implementation ViewPort
-(id)initWithFrame:(CGRect) frame{
	int x,y,w,h = 0,240,320,50;
	rect = CGRectMake(x,y,w,h);
	reject = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:rect];
	reject.text = @"We're sorry, you have been Rejected from Harvard";
	reject.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:24.0];
	[self addSubview: reject];
	return self;
}
-(void)drawRect:(CGRect) rect{
	
}
-(void)dealloc {
	[reject.release];
	[super dealloc];
}
@end
Note: If you compile and link this via xcode, it'll actually work on your iPhone :P
