<p><em>bows</em></p>
<p>How long did it take for you to make that post?</p>
<p>“wake up, you lazy TiTers! Its morning already, and today is decisions day remember? So wake up now…”</p>
<p>When? wHAT? Today is 29th?</p>
<p>Decision day for Duke and some others that Shrivats mentioned…</p>
<p>Some decisions are out today, Abhi. I believe.</p>
<p>spacepirate – pretty much the only way to intern around here seems to be having contacts, ask your parents. ;)</p>
<p>I though Duke would be releasing decision with Ivys.
Best of luck to everyone.</p>
<p>There are few Internships in IIT. Don’t know much about them, although. I did a kind of internship in a small advertising firm. We just went to all advertising companies/advertising clients with a sample of our work. One was kind and hired us (although, some asked the security to throw us out(:D))</p>
<p>@noldo- my parents want me study for entrance exams the entire summer :P</p>
<p>@duke applicants- in the email that duke sent you notifying the decision time, does it say 6pm or 6:30?</p>
<p>beginning 6:30pm</p>
<p>Wake up, wake up… Jeez.</p>
<p>Can’t a guy get his sleep? ;)</p>
<p>It’s the Day! (Everybody just go, jump up and down or something. :D)</p>
<p>Yesterday’s Daily Round Up: 247 posts! :O</p>
<p>Just went to school to look at grad day photographs, which I ended up not buying anyway, and naturally I was asked where I’m thinking of going for university, and whether I’m taking the IIT exam. Following conversation resulted:</p>
<p>“No. I’m going to Caltech.”</p>
<p>“Where?”</p>
<p>“Caltech. You know, California Institute of Technology.”</p>
<p>“Oh, California. Is that like UCLA?”</p>
<p>“…No.”</p>
<p>“I thought you wanted to go to MIT.”</p>
<p>“Yes, but I didn’t get in, and Caltech is exactly as good or maybe better.”</p>
<p>“It can’t be as good as MIT if you didn’t get in.”</p>
<p>“…”</p>
<p>“What subject did you get in for?”</p>
<p>“Whatever I want. Maybe I’ll do Physics.”</p>
<p>“Not engineering? Well, with your marks, you can’t get into Engineering anyway.”</p>
<p>“The hell?”</p>
<p>“Your SAT score wasn’t even good either.”</p>
<p>“…”</p>
<p>Yeah. Wot fun. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>My sincere, sincere sympathies. I’m dreading when I walk into school on a normal day. (rest of them are on a break now). Everybody from the kids in 5th grade to the new 12th graders are going to be asking me about my college apps. Not a pretty picture. :)</p>
<p>Don’t worry Noldo, you’re already the stuff of legend on this thread :), your school’l figure it out eventually ;)</p>
<p>Heh. 
Hopefully they will, although I have my doubts. (And I really want to know why they respect UCLA more, but let’s not get into that.)</p>
<p>It just irks me how everyone assumes I’m supposed to be a bitter MIT reject crying salt tears into my Earl Grey. I’m not doing anything of the kind, I’m squeeing over the thought that I might hear Murray Gell-Mann lecture (I think he still does, periodically)! :D</p>
<p>Earl Grey? 
with lemon? (Trust me to pick up on the least important part of your post, the syndrome continues! :))</p>
<p>Ah well, it’s strange. Few posts today. Guess we’ve exhausted ourselves on yesterday’s topical and absolutely important discussions. :)</p>
<p>Oh, yes, yesterday’s discussions were most tiring, all that intellectual excitement. :p</p>
<p>And Earl Grey with lemon? Fie, Kaushik! 
(Ruins the flavour. Any other sort of tea, though, lemon’s a fixture.)</p>
<p>Fie indeed. (Fraternal fie-ing going on here)…</p>
<p>I guess it’s just that everyone’s still waking up I suppose. It’s going to be a long night tonight…</p>
