Yea man, most of us already lost our souls to the college apps. Oh well, might as well let Senioritis kick in.

The wait is absolutely killing me. On one hand, I want to know where I'll spend the next four years of my life. On the other hand, I'm dreading the rejection letters I'll receive because there's no way I can get into all 12 of my schools.

Trying to be optimistic though. Miracles happen, right?

^^ Haha, I do. Of course, its the work you've put into your four years, but there are still some schools that are a long shot. The scale can tip either way and all you can do is hope it works out for you.

One of my schools has rolling notification that started the 15th... I don't even seriously want to go there and yet I find that I check my email like every 5 minutes...
I don't take rejection very well...

I got deferred from Yale in December, and ever since then I've been extremely anxious to find out about RD acceptances. I should be hearing from my safety school soon though. Good luck to all of you!
