<p>is it only me and shrivats who r havin nightmares of getting acceptance letter???</p>
<p>pranjal: dont they pick-up phone calls??..</p>
<p>And I’m in the same state as Shrivats and you, Noldo, oscillating between hope and despair (Only I do tend to go against Galileo and spend an inordinate amount of time on the despair side of things :))</p>
<p>acceptance letters = nightmares: </p>
<p>you two are fantastic…</p>
<p>I have dreams(not nightmares… i hope they are worse) about being a REJECTED(everywhere) guy</p>
<p>I think we all have dreams of getting accepted to all the colleges we’re applying to; not nightmares ;)</p>
<p>One of my friends has already been accepted to CMU :).</p>
<p>And I received a confirmation e-mail from Grinnell quite a long time back. It included a username and password to check the status of my app. And I sent my app just around the deadline.</p>
<p>and yeah, even I don’t have any safeties :(</p>
<p>Likewise with regard to CMU; one friend’s been accepted to Rice, two to Michigan, one to Purdue, so I’m waiting…</p>
<p>Well, it is a nightmare to me coz I know I will neve get accepted…
And it seems that the grand CC itself is suffering from autism…(posts r distributed in an insanely randomised order)…</p>
<p>You do realize everyone that we have practically everybody who normally posts on this thread (except for Kriti, Abhishiv and Shrivats) online at the same time?</p>
<p>I had a dream about a fanged rejection letter (seriously. bloody vampiric. It was quite terrifying), and was rejected from Cambridge the next morning. I suppose there is a slight argument for clairvoyance? 
</p>
<p>Occasionally, I read over my essays and go ‘these are nice. Maybe I’ll get in.’. Then I realise that a) I used weird language, b) I spelt Britishly, and c) essays won’t make up for all the other stuff that’s wrong with my application, and there goes all hope.</p>
<p>Ya…I just noticed that as well…
It was bound to b noticed when the post count is raising all of a sudden after the night’s explosion…</p>
<p>I didn’t recieve anything from Grinnell…</p>
<p>can you give me the link to the status website, aritct</p>
<p>Oh I’m staying away from my essays; I don’t even want to look at them for fear I’ll find something wrong with them (a typo or just something). I did like my essays though :)</p>
<p>Whenever I look at my essay…the only thing that strikes my mind is that…‘‘It is ridiculously insane material ever written!’’</p>
<p>fanged rejection letters? 
I’ve not gone that far yet!</p>
<p>Issac – for my Stanford photograph essay? The first thing that I mentioned was a stop-motion photo of a bullet bursting through a banana. I think that qualifies as ‘insane’. </p>
<p>k_twin – I found one typo. I nearly cried. (!!!)</p>
<p>Apparently the server’s gone kaput again. We’ll probably all be banned at this rate!</p>
<p>I have a solution to the Shivrat addiction:</p>
<p>oo Moderators, can you please stop displaying that a post has been editd…(may be that can curtail the addiction a li’l)</p>
<p>It was traumatising! Seriously, it was huge and white and dripping with the blood of innocents. And it chased me around the room. I AM SCARRED FOR LIFE. /drama</p>
<p>edit to add: in case it isn’t perfectly clear, I am referring to that nightmare about evil rejection letters.</p>
<p>hehe…that Syndrome is cool enough to keep me outta trouble of letters…</p>
<p>Poor old Shivrat (Shrivats), he loves his name so much! :D</p>
