<p>anyone get an email yet?</p>
<p>MAYBE they send out decisions without notifying you…idk could happen haha</p>
<p>If only…hah that would be amazing.</p>
<p>There is no God</p>
<p>if anyone trolls and says they received an email I WILL END YOU.</p>
<p>Hey guys, been following this thread for awhile and thought I would jump in. I’m an early action applicant to Stanford as well. I was wondering if anyone has thought to create a compilation of early decision/action release dates for all of the top universities. I’ve been keeping myself occupied by going through columbia and dartmouth decisions and thought it would be beneficial for everyone in this thread if we could easily follow those threads as we await our fate.</p>
<p>^same. NO TROLLS PLZ</p>
<p>@socialpapa</p>
<p>that was both a really funny quiz as well as a bit of a wake up call (lurking here too much!).</p>
<p>Thanks for the laugh and good luck!</p>
<p>so i kinda want to start speculation again, but i know it’ll only lead to disappointment…ahhahaha.</p>
<p>I almost wish I could lock this thread forever. It’s the source of all stress in life</p>
<p>Guys let’s face it, it’s not tonight. The BEST we can hope for is Tuesday, although I think it’ll be Friday.</p>
<p>i’m going with friday. whoever said it was going to be for sure today…thanks.</p>
<p>I just called the admissions office and the person on the other line said she was “100% sure” that the early action decisions were coming out on the 15th. She sounded very sure.</p>
<p>"I would speak to you of cool breezes.</p>
<p>You may or may not wish to listen to me, since I am 43 years old and have never. Sex, kiss, date, cuddle, whatever a human might want from another human, slap a ‘never’ on it and that is me. Taking my advice might not be a great idea. But I have learned some things.</p>
<p>Sometimes on a warm day, a cool breeze will come along. It just happens. Or it doesn’t happen. There is no schedule for it, no specific reason, nothing I can do to cause it. It feels awfully nice when it does happen. I don’t deserve it, or not deserve it. I can’t earn it.</p>
<p>All I can do is be out there doing whatever I am doing, and enjoy it when it comes along. That is not to suggest you should be passive, not at all. Exactly the opposite. But you should allow life to happen.</p>
<p>You want to stop feeling. You can do that. I did. It can be done. But there is no way—none, zero, no way at all ever—to stop feeling the bad parts without also stopping feeling the good. You do not get to choose that, it cannot be done. If you numb the bad, you numb the glorious.</p>
<p>Have you ever met a girl you thought was pretty nice, but you just didn’t feel that way about her? I don’t think you can just decide to love her, whoever she was. You could decide to think of her as charitably as you can but you can’t feel what you don’t feel. And neither can they. Love is a cool breeze. You can’t decide whether to feel it, all you can do is decide what to do about it if you do feel it.</p>
<p>You know you will probably never find someone for you. Tempting, isn’t it? To have that final answer, to stop enduring the misery of hope. You are sure. It is nice to be sure. It is nice to have that out of the way and not have to wonder and hope, dream and want, need and yearn. Yearn! What a word. But there it is. Yearning. Sounds like a goddamn sonnet but that is the word for it.</p>
<p>You don’t know a goddamn thing. I am sorry, but the bad news is you probably will find someone. You can try being as repulsive as possible and some girl might like you anyhow, people are crazy like that. Stop trying to be sure, and learn to endure uncertainty. Being sure is like riding a flat rollercoaster. Whee.</p>
<p>The bad news is you have hope. Hope’s the rope that keeps you tied in knots—the torture never stops. Even when you find her, and she likes you and she can’t help it and she gets all silly and wants to have your babies and everything, you will still have to hope. It never ever ends. You will hope every day she still loves you. You will hope she isn’t bored with you. You will hope the tests come back negative. You will hope she forgives you. It never, ever ends. Well, until you are dead, and there is time enough for that later I assure you."</p>
<p>Definitely not the 15th. Legacy letters said the 14th, and they wouldn’t have it any later than that</p>
<p>I wouldn’t put it past them to lie when we call them </p>
<p>we must be super annoying anyway</p>
<p>She said they were coming by email on the 15th.</p>
<p>@stressedasian
I understand the message…hope is death. Like Night of the Living Dead. And I’m a zombie</p>
<p>I refuse to believe that it is the 15th. Reasons:
a) It has NEVER come out on a weekend
b) The admissions office is CLOSED on weekends
c) The legacy letter said the 14th; they shouldn’t go later
d) They like to have their own day (MIT is the 15th I believe)
e) If I have to wait more than a week I might die.</p>
<p>15th is a Saturday…?</p>
<p>SAT: Very good =P</p>
<p>Slice: Mhm.</p>
