RD Countdown Thread!

<p>I’m pretty bored. But my boarding school internet cut out for two days and I wasn’t happy…come 5:01, if it cuts out again I swear I’m using dial-up :D</p>

<p>Hey three6mafia…are you Italiano? Just curious…</p>

<p>For me, I seem to become calmer as the day inches closer. I wonder what this means…I should be pulling my hair out and biting my nails off, but none of that. Hmmm…</p>

<p>I feel pretty calm too…I guess Thursday will be the end of a long wait and then I can make a decision as to where I am going to college shortly thereafter. Until now…it has just been “hurry up and wait.”</p>

<p>I guess this is the calm before the storm bookwormgirl</p>

<p>5 pm eastern time, no?</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>two days…</p>

<p>haha no, im south asian
three 6 mafia is one of my favorite rap groups</p>

<p>I’ll be checking decisions exactly 48 hours from now…(it comes out 5 AM here and I’m not going to check it till 8 or so, when I wake up). How surreal.</p>

<p>Surreal, ROFL. Surreal is when you wake up and your room is floating in the air with your house missing. THAT is surreal. Not waiting. Waiting is just…waiting.</p>

<p>Oh eva since I can rememba i been poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla poppin my colla poppin poppin my colla</p>

<p>You’re right Nicolby. It must a calm before the storm (a thunderstorm I might add). epsilon9090, ROFL!!!</p>

<p>T minus 161760</p>

<p>(seconds)</p>

<p>I prefer…44 hours!!!</p>

<p>jeez louise! This is kind of nervewracking/calm at the same time–I think I’ve had this feeling a couple of times, all before major announcements; I think we should definitely let time pass, not think about it, expect the worst and hope for the best…Good Luck</p>

<p>Oh gosh, only hours away. Well, I just now joined CC…I know right, couple of days before its all over, how pointless. Anyways…I’m not looking to get chanced but…I actually want to go to Harvard.<br>
My SAT and ACT are ok (prob. not CC standard) I mean…2020 and 30. I’m in top 10% and all. (This probably looks bad already huh?) But this is where I believe I break from the heard.
I am an amazing writer…my essays reflect that
My teachers who wrote recs. for me absolutely love me
^ same for my counselor
I have a massive upward trend from freshman year to this year (taking 6 AP’s this year).
I have passions in both debate and jazz guitar, which I do as EC’s in school.
But the hook (I guess) is that I was involved in a research experiment at MD Anderson, wrote an amazing report (which I sent in) and got my name on the official published report in the journal of clinical cancer research.</p>

<p>And from what I understand about college admissions ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.</p>

<p>So, what do you guys think? I know this must be annoying to respond to but, please?</p>

<p>Just like you said: Anything can happen, landofoo. Keep us posted.</p>

<p>1 day left…holy mother of peanuts…</p>

<p>For me, the calm is more like this:</p>

<p>Walking with my eyes closed. I will either walk right into a wall, and “Wam”, or I will open my eyes and find myself in Tuscany, which would definitely be quite a miracle, being that I’d have to walk across water to get there.</p>

<p>Hi, I just found this message board in the last minute and how great it is to see that others too are feeling this anxiety! I’m from Denmark and until now I’ve actually been relatively relaxed, but now on the 28th… well, let’s just say I don’t feel any silence nor calm before the thunderstorm!
So few hours remain now and soon we’ll all know whether Harvard is a part of our destiny of not. I wish you all the best of luck!
Btw, does anyone else suddenly obsess about their application’s weaknesses that seemed miniscule not long ago???</p>

<p>tomorrow, 5 pm EST eh?</p>

<p>chyeah, bring it.</p>

<p>Lol I tried picking up that good attitude but it didn’t work. Well, 24 hours!</p>

<p>oh shooooot, i forgot to check the box for email notification, so i’ll have to wait…</p>
