<p>There is too much gloom here. Hopefully this cheers you up somewhat. Just imagine this webpage is talking to you and the soothing, sanguine feel should start to sink in. </p>

<p>hehe…one of those coming to a mailbox near (belonging to) you.</p>

<p>Thank you Soul :)</p>

<p>“photos of letters being mailed” not only is this really obtrusive, but very sketchy.</p>

4

<p>well…not really, if you notice the title at the top left corner, it says “Acceptance Letter Mailing 2004”</p>

5

<p>misscompetent, Its not like she took the pictures…you’re crazy.</p>

6

<p>It’d be great if there were a pic of one of the admissions officers holding a thin rejection letter, grinning broadly at the camera.</p>

<p>"<a href="http://www.studentaffairs.columbia.edu/welcome/“&gt;http://www.studentaffairs.columbia.edu/welcome/&lt;/a&gt;” … what is this? is this from an old website or something? how do you get here from the normal columbia home…</p>

8

<p>i believe it was a link included in the <em>acceptance letters</em> from last yr : )</p>

9

<p>umm what are you people on? you take things way too seriously. who is “she”? . Um I was just stating its WEIRD of them taking pictures of acceptance letters and its really ironic…this thread might not help, it could worsen the deal.</p>

10

<p>huh… i am SOOO confused…</p>

<p>maybe it’s this cold?</p>

<p>but i have no idea what everyone’s talkin bout lol… or is just me? lordy…i’m going loopy…</p>

11

<p>well, i believe that whole webpage was dedicated to acceptees, so contrary to it being ironic, it was very appropriate - kinda like a survivor’s euphoria scrap book or whatnot.</p>

12

<p>THE SITUATION IT IS SHOWN IN RIGHT NOW IS IRONIC. that is all.</p>

13

<p>alrighty then… hold on to your knickers everyone…
no need to shout!</p>

14

<p>lol, misscompetent: the “she” in one of the previous post is a reference to the original poster,which is me. All that Freakish meant to get across is that I didn’t take those photos.</p>

<p>How one perceives this thread is totally dependent on how one chooses to view this thread. For some, the admitted students website shows the “light at the end of the tunnel” and the reason why we are here basked in anxiety and impatience. It is that reward we are all aiming for. </p>

<p>This thread is meant to follow the foosteps of Glory’s earlier thread of the acceptance and rejection letters. All it intends to show is the glory of the final destination. I’m sorry if some feel insulted by such postings.</p>

<p>Ahh I love Yu Shi… He always manages to put a clear rational perspective on everything… Go YOU !!! Our fav. Columbian!</p>

16

<p>agreed. : )</p>

17

<p>the she I was referring to was Glory, who posted the pics…but you got the drift.</p>
