<p>Yay! Haha this thread is getting longer and longer and longer. It is probably not very fun for people who are not us to read…</p>
<p>^^^ If you want to, you can send them to me, too. :)</p>
<p>I’m not going to feel safe in any way until my transcript and SSR are safely in. Until then…</p>
<p>The total REA applicants to Yale decreased this year… epic fail :p</p>
<p>Sadly, that also means less competition there… lol</p>
<p>Horrid.
Knaves.</p>
<p>Haha wulfran, it seems as though a lot of people fall under your definition of “knaves”! :D</p>
<p><_<</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>…okay, yeah. :D</p>
<p>^
LOL… “knaves” is definitely gonna be one of those REA 2015 memories xD</p>
<p>I mean, if any of you go to school with me, I suspect it might be for a little longer than just REA 2015. :P</p>
<p>I really wish best of luck to all of you. I’ve been reading through this thread and it’s amazing how supportive, funny, and friendly you all are. </p>
<p>Hopefully you will all get into Stanford, but kindness is the greatest gift in life and happiness is bound to follow you wherever you end up.</p>
<p>I didn’t mean to sound like a hallmark card, but yeah, you guys are awesome.</p>
<p>How kind of you, gtlane! :)</p>
<p>It’s true, this thread is really supportive. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one going through the Bipolar syndrome and wishing I could invent a time machine. =)</p>
<p>Gahh today is not a good day for SBS… It hasn’t been too bad this week, but now that we’ve passed the three week mark (decisions in 20 days!) I’m getting even more anxious than usual.</p>
<p>Same with me, as the day gets closer, the wrote it gets…</p>
<p>Also, I’m getting extremely superstitious, freakishly so. I try not so speak about the decision, just in case. I try to not even think about what if… you know what xD And I’m acting extra nice to everyone also just in case…</p>
<p>And I don’t ever remove my bracelet, because it has beads with egyptian eyes which are supposed to protect you from curses and jinxes… I’m becoming even more paranoid than I normally am xD</p>
<p>Haha CrazySmiles I totally understand! I’ve been wishing on 11:11s, wearing my Stanford clothes religiously, and wearing a special good luck necklace (for all you HP fan it says “Felix Felicis” on a little potion bottle). Anyone else doing anything unusual as the deadline approaches?</p>
<p>Shoot, I completely forgot to wish on 11:11s, I gotta start doing it xD</p>
<p>Talking about HP, I’m soo excited!! Tomorrow, I’m finally going to go watch it!! =D</p>
<p>^</p>
<p>lol @ Felix Felicis…</p>
<p>hmm… I’m trying not to think about what i’ll do if I get rejected :p</p>
<p>I used to think I was alone in wishing at 11:11! Wow. That’s crazy.</p>
<p>11:11 is the bomb diggity in the bay area :]</p>
<p>I got a fortune cookie that said “Your imagination is everything. It is the preview of coming attractions,” right before the day I had my New England XC race and my Stanford interview and both went well (both I had been hoping would go well). Now I’m scared to open any more fortune cookies for fear they will have a bad fortune and cancel out the first one–which is now tacked on my wall. </p>
<p>Also 11:11 has stopped working for me. Shooting stars, that another thing entirely.</p>
<p>I can’t believe someone coined SBS, it perfectly describes my attitude. I hope I’m in the down side when I get my admissions so it doesn’t hurt too bad if I don’t get in. I love my safety schools though, so I’ll be happy wherever I go. Anyone else applying to CU Boulder?</p>
<p>Groans- refer to post 350 on this thread to see the best horoscope EVER for the day a person submits college apps! That was the day my superstition started!</p>
