If I don't get into Yale, I'm going to...

<p>run away to South America and become a reclusive shepherd of mountain goat.</p>

<p>what about you?</p>

<p>haha.
i’ll probably be dissapointed, be not hapyp for a couple days, then be back to normal</p>

<p>curse my luck/the world/, cry, and then go into seclusion for several days frantically churning out my other applications while eating nothing but pringles and godiva chocolates.</p>

<p>Try to have a blast for the rest of winter break.</p>

<p>Well these are just boringly sensible.</p>

<p>^ good! :slight_smile: I think it’s healthy to realize that one’s path in life is not contingent on getting into one specific college! And I will reiterate the advice I’ve provided ad nauseum to my daughters since they entered high school - never fall in love with any college that hasn’t accepted you yet!</p>

<p>Send out the rest of applications.</p>

<p>Try not to be so disappointed. I knew it was a long shot. DX</p>

<p>oh my gosh! I think we’re soul mates. xD</p>

<p>My friends and I plan to start a llama and alpaca farm in Peru. We’ll use the llamas’ luxurious hair to make fancy wigs for British parliament. </p>

<p>We’re going to get to Peru by trucking, pool sharking in halls along the way, and mugging llama farms to start up our collection. So far, we have one disfunctional yellow get-away car.</p>

<p>I’m also thinking about branching out and making llama-chutes (llamas on parachutes). 5 bucks a ride :)</p>

<p>So there. I am all set, even if I don’t get into college.</p>

<p>Oh, but that’s if I don’t plan to go to college in general.</p>

<p>So an actual answer to your question would be (unfortunately not as exciting):</p>

<p>Be disappointed, but thankful for safeties. >_<</p>

<p>If I had a soul, I’d love to be your soulmate.</p>

<p>And I feel really sorry to disappoint the FIRST real answer to this thread, but they don’t really wear wigs in British parliament.</p>

<p>They do in the courts, and I think sometimes the chief whip in the lords MIGHT wear one, but I’m hazy on this.</p>

<p>As for the rest of you, I’ve had NO imaginative answers. Clearly none of you are going to get into Yale at this rate. The admission officers are probably reading this thread and shaking their heads sadly…</p>

<p>By the way, I LOVE the llama chutes.</p>

<p>genius.</p>

<p>I had a similar great idea the other day. Have you ever noticed how soft bee fur is? (It is…trust me on this)</p>

<p>I’m going to slaughter a thousand bees and make them into the softest gloves ever. I won’t sell them in pairs, but in threes. I’m feeling kooky.</p>

<p>Haha. Well, they’ll be super rare, collector’s edition wigs :wink: Can jack up the prices and pawn the rest on Ebay.</p>

<p>Thanks! Oh no! You shouldn’t slaughter bees though, poor things. Just use masking tape or Nair to safely remove the hair. That way, you can give them a chance to regenerate. </p>

<p>Though I’m liking the threes thing. For three handed people, absent-minded people who need a back-up glove, people who want to keep a pair and give one to their one-handed friend, or people with small heads who can use the extra as a hat…?</p>

<p>WHEN i don’t get in, i’m probably going to eat an entire box of double stuffed oreos, vandalize something, then go drown my sorrows.</p>

<p>the next morning, after 2 advils, all will be well. maybe some french toast at a diner too, if i’m feeling especially fat.</p>

<p>YAY! i’ve started doing sit-ups to prepare for the poundage i’ll be taking on.</p>

<p>Actually being British I’m afraid I will just go drown my sorrows with whisky and then head to the local pub/club.</p>

<p>Freely available alcohol is a terrible thing…</p>

<p>But lets keep up the nonsense anyway.</p>

<p>I had an oreo the other day…after all the hype i hear about it, it was really disappointing. very dry…</p>

<p>oreos are a wonderful thing, but must be eaten only with milk.</p>

<p>very sorry i didn’t specify.</p>

<p>thats what milk is for</p>

<p>If I don’t get into Yale, I’m going to start doing my safety school application.</p>

<p>TT_TT</p>

<p>Aye. I can’t eat Oreas without milk >_< (unless I am marooned after school for 7 hours with no other source of nourishment). </p>

<p>flyingsilverware–Love your sn! Gosh, we should do a situp marathon together. I shall be gorging on chocolate, cuz thats pretty much what everyone gives me for the holidays anyway…>_O</p>

<p>Chronicidal–if I may inquire, what’s your safety?</p>

<p>12 days until D-Day!! >_<</p>

<p>Guess. It’s a state school.</p>
