Official ED Cartharsis Thread

<p>Now that we have a thread that is purely for stats and acceptance/deferal/rejection status, use this thread to express your emotions upon finding out. I suppose that eventually, people will create the Class of 2009! Deferred Club! and Rejected! threads, but due to personal superstitions, that person is not me.</p>

<p>For the past week, I actually felt good. Then today I just felt really nervous. Stomachache nervous. And now I’m just sad. I don’t think I’ll get in =(</p>

<p>Today, foot jangling at all times nervous + impatient. Until then, calm and relaxed - like you too, Zante!</p>

<p>The “Lights of Princeton” video made me sad… and hopeful, too.</p>

<p>Oh and so… tired… :p</p>

<p>I’m still feeling good…sort of…</p>

<p>{hurrah for the 60-second rule!}</p>

<p>edit: kat1, I’ve been extremely tired too—and can’t fall asleep! Is the same thing happening to you? Good times…</p>

<p>(My sister keeps rolling her eyes and saying, “Why do you care so much? Just relax. Chill.”–but she can have no idea what the whole final-week waiting period feels like…)</p>

<p>I think I got in. God told me so.</p>

<p>Direct pipeline to God, Ilcapo? Excellent for you. </p>

<p>Will you put in a good word for me (and all of us Pton CCers)? I’m sure it’s within his power to change our decisions, even if they’re in sealed envelopes.</p>

<p>I know it sounds corny but I want to make my dad proud</p>

<p>Ahh, but you’re forgetting predestination…</p>

<p>edit: legend, that’s not corny at all…</p>

<p>It doesn’t sound corny at all, Legend. I’m sure I’d feel the same way in your position.</p>

<p>I really want things work out well for you - you deserve it more than most (all?) of us. Seems like it’s high time for something to go well, so hopefully your decision will be it!</p>

<p>Thank you gracilisae… <em>fingers crossed</em></p>

<p>legendofmax , what the heck, thats not corny… u can do it!!</p>

<p>omg. i need thsi thread… i just looked at my princeton app, photocopid one… now i think i have no chance… all those ppl who got in ed to columbia dartmouth were just … weird… 1350… in… 1500 out… and so many rejected…</p>

<p>how strong are ur ECs? it seems that i dont have anything outstanding… the best i have is just some provincial honors in swimming, tabletennis, business, and trivia… then i thot that looked impressive… but somehow… on the space given, they look like nothing… :(</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s the time to compare stats and feel insecure now pw.
Just</p>

<p>::hugg::</p>

<p>Yes, ditto to Gracilisae’s words…</p>

<p>Legendofmax: I’m sure you know that we’re all pulling for you. And even if you don’t get in, you haven’t let anyone down—if you (and this applies to the rest of us, too) gave it your best shot, then you have nothing to be ashamed of—whatever the outcome.</p>

<p>Awful thoughts of mine lately, but I was thinking…
what would be worse? An all out massacre on our cc all stars, or everyone getting in except you?
Sigh, i’m in a depressing mood. I think I’ll go watch the flash vid again…</p>

<p>It would be more difficult to be the “one left out,” but it would definitely be worse to see everyone rejected. But I don’t think that’s plausible…we’ve got too many great applicants for a full-out massacre (I hope…)</p>

<p>ok… alright… breathe in…, and outtttt…</p>

<p>GUYS WE CAN DO IT! STICK TOGETHER TILL THE VERY END!</p>

<p>There’s just so much tension here right now. The next ten days will be the worst. And most bittersweet.</p>

<p>yes…“bittersweet” is the best word for it.
-the acceptees will see friends (yes, I count you as friends :)) rejected/deferred
-the deferrees/rejectees will see friends accepted and know they won’t be with them come next September</p>

<p>deferral isn’t the end
we’ll put up a good fight</p>

<p>but ah i’m just so tired
I’d like to sleep during this vacation, but if I have apps and stress…sigh</p>

<p>::i hope i get in:: oh god</p>
