<p>Accepted into University of Southern California, Marshall School of Business!</p>
<p>Guys, the A level results are out! I got mine today, did pretty good, straight A’s for Econ, Business and History.</p>
<p>@ dda – dude how did you find out the tracking number of the DHL package?</p>
<p>Congrats, Aditya :)</p>
<p>What is RPI? Isn’t it Ressenlaer Polytechnic? I thought they gave aid? Although Canadians don’t count as internationals, in many places.</p>
<p>We’re mostly Indians of Indian descent.</p>
<p>I’m studying English, finally. Why do they test us on our ability to make NOTES?!</p>
<p>I’m just getting pumped for Desert Rock. I’m psyched for Prodigy and Iron Maiden, it should be awesome!</p>
<p>I read Robert Plant is also going to be there. He’s going to play all the Led Zeppelin classics. :D</p>
<p>Kriti – notes. GOD. Don’t remind me. (I’m not studying for English, because quite frankly I can’t be arsed to. 
If I do well, I shall. If I don’t, well – THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND MY ERUDITE WRITING. SO THERE.)</p>
<p>Shrivats – well, stop it. It can’t be good for you to angst either. The universe might implode into a little angsty black hole, or something.</p>
<p>Re. concert – eh, not a big fan, really. Friends are all going, though.</p>
<p>Sk8rBoi Inc is a wholly owned subsidiary of bas007 Inc…
LOL</p>
<p>Well in recent news, Shri and I just got accepted to Michigan :); so I know I’ve got some place to go!</p>
<p>Congrats k_twin and Shrivats!!! :)</p>
<p>Congrats @ the twins.</p>
<p>Has anyone who applied to Colgate got the brochure that describes the first 100 days at Colgate? Other international students have got it, I haven’t, I’m freaking.</p>
<p>Congrats twins. :)</p>
<p>Thanks. :D</p>
<p>Finally I know I’m not going to have to write the AIEEE and all of that. (UMich was safety, but hey, a Tufts could always have happened. :))</p>
<p>@ Noldo and Kriti: This is where i sit back, reflect on studying and writing about Shakespeare for English, and about writing 5 page brilliant essays with beautiful prompts, throw my head back, and laugh with complete and utter schadenfreude. :D</p>
<p>Not that that was any help, but :):)</p>
<p>I like the word Schadenfreude. But then I also have a fondness for Weltanshauung and Zeitgeist. (I should have applied to IUB, shouldn’t I? :p)</p>
<p>Shrivats, I hate you. Now that you’ve been accepted somewhere…</p>
<p>I think only Noldo and I are still hanging in the balance. Everyone else has been accepted somewhere. AARGH.</p>
<p>Yep, it’s just us, Kriti. <em>angsting and woe</em> Congratulations to the twins, though.</p>
<p>I have a very real fear that everyone’s going to toss me. Or accept me and not give me aid, therefore rendering me angsty and in-an-ironic-situation.</p>
<p>Nice one twins. Did they accept you on the same day?</p>
<p>Lakshya - Plant is on tomrorrow</p>
<p>The one’s that we actually want to go to still remain for us though. (All 13 of them :p)</p>
<p>Noldo: I’d like to feel sympathetic, but the second I try, I remember you’re in the UK pool for MIT, and all sympathy, just sort of, evanesces.</p>
<p>Seriously though, we know that if anybody deserves to get into the colleges you’ve applied to, you do. So Chin up, and other pseudo-Wodehousian utterances :D</p>
<p>@inshallah: It doesn’t matter. I can’t go anyway. :(</p>
<p>@Noldo: What Shrivats said. And you’re just 15! If things don’t work out this year - there’s always next year. You’ll still be a year younger than the average applicant. And you can do loads of things to improve on your application. :D</p>
<p>@inshallah: On the same day, in fact today, in fact, not less than 15 minutes ago, to be precise. :)</p>
<p>See that’s how highly we value this lot of disreputable fellows up here! Or at least that’s how addicted we’ve become to CC. :)</p>
