<p>That bloke’s Sanjaya Malakar, a contestant on American Idol. Pretty controversial. (If you watch Idol, that is).</p>

<p>He’s pretty mediocre, singing-wise, but he’s managed, somehow to stay in the competition. :)</p>

6502

<p>Oh and thanks fuzzy, much appreciated. (Duke’s one of those colleges for me, you know, not 1st choice, but a great college all the same, and one I’d be glad to go to…) So it’s going to be a loong night ahead. </p>

<p>Suggestions on how to spend the time, anyone?</p>

6503

<p>Finished going through the archives of CAD, have you?</p>

6504

<p>:) Yes, and those of PhD, and xkcd. :D</p>

<p>Could someone post a copy of the most recent update to hopkins typepad. (Dubai’s damn ISP’s blocked it) Apparently college is against the “Moral, Political and Religious values of the UAE” :p</p>

6505

<p>What’s the URL?</p>

6506

<p>Shrivats, here it is:</p>

<p>

</p>

6507

<p>Damn, wish I could have read it. (How can you btw, tor?)</p>

6508

<p>No, I could’ve used the software(one I normally use). But since it’s a blog, I had it on Google Reader. Much faster that way and it’s really neat. All my blogs in one place!</p>

6509

<p>I’ve got GReader as well, really. :)</p>

<p>Checks.</p>

<p>Ah it’s come. It hadn’t last time I checked. :D</p>

6510

<p>Hmm…it seems to be blocked by my ISP as well. :(</p>

6511

<p>Lakshya, you might want to head over to the CMU forum. Seems like most of their decisions are being released tonight…</p>

6512

<p>Did anyone here got a letter from Midd addressed to parents regrading Febs?</p>

6513

<p>I HAVEN’T HEARD ANYTHING FROM VASSAR YET.</p>

<p>Why can’t they send all international decisions at once? Don’t they know people read CC and freak?!</p>

<p>Am I rejected if I haven’t gotten anything yet?</p>

<p>Williams decisions have been mailed, and I get notified by March 30.</p>

<p>Why can’t Vassar give a specific date?</p>

<p>DON’T THEY KNOW PEOPLE FREAK? ESPECIALLY PARANOID PEOPLE LIKE ME?!</p>

<p></p>

6514

<p>:) um… Hi? :o</p>

6515

<p>and it’ll be bye from Shri as the three-quarter hour ticks by. um… hi? :o :D</p>

6516

<p>Kriti, relax. Really. :smiley: You can’t determine anything at all from decision receipt dates (er, look at my Caltech story if you don’t believe me), you’re a qualified applicant, and you have as decent a shot as anyone.</p>

6517

<p>Exactly, having got into Oberlin (through an Early Write no less!), surely you’re a little more optimistic about your chances elsewhere?</p>

6518

<p>So, who’s planning to stay up all night for Duke/Northwestern decisions?</p>

6519

<p>Northwestern? I thought all I was staying up for was Duke, JHU and CMU(possibly), now there’s Northwestern too? </p>

<p>Long night ahead.</p>

<p>Actually, I’m not going to be staying up. All the decision times fall in my normal waking hours.</p>

6520

<p>Shri and I’ll do that (although NU’s not releasing today, Hopkins is)</p>
