Any other Waitlisters getting nervous?

The biggest one is so cliche, but it’s true. Like yayy said, everything will be alright in the end. When I initially got waitlisted, a lot of people told me that “everything will be alright” phrase over and over again. I got annoyed and thought it was complete BS; I thought my friends were just saying that to make me feel better.

But they were right, regardless if they really meant what they were saying.

You just have to be realistic. It would have been dumb of me to just mope around not give any of the other schools I got into a chance. Yes, I put my heart into Vandy, but when circumstances changed (aka: waitlisted), I had to rethink my path in life. So I just took advantage of a great school that did accept me.

And now, if I get off the Vandy waitlist, it’ll be a win-win situation. If not, I’ll still be happy.

As for me having kids, I don’t even want to think that far down the road. Haha.
