<p>thank you! :)</p>
<p>I have managed to avoid the Yale board since EA decisions, which kind of allowed me to finish my apps and stay sane. But…<em>sigh</em>…nine more days.</p>
<p>Nine days… seems unreal.
But I’m fully expecting a denial, so I’m not as anxious as I used to be. It’s all good.</p>
<p>…before worrying about Yale, I’d probably best worry about my AP Lit paper, which is on a book that I haven’t read yet, which is due Monday. </p>
<p>But seriously, after being deferred, I’ve taken more of an “ehh” approach. :P</p>
<p>^ What book?</p>
<p>Jane Eyre.</p>
<p>I read that earlier this semester! What’s the paper about? I hope that you’ve at least started the book; it is rather long!</p>
<p>… no comment to the first part of your second sentence.</p>
<p>(Well, I’ve read the book through once in 8th grade, but that was a LONGGGG time ago, I’ll admit). </p>
<p>The essay’s about responsibility vs. passion. 
I think I’ll talk about Mr. Rochester…</p>
<p>Guys please be optimistic… tha fat lady hasn’t sung yet.
Keep your little hearts and eyes open. There is still a possibility for all of us!
Speaking of English Lit, I hate it. I am ■■■■■■■■ in literature. It be easier if I attempted to decipher an ancient Greek scripture or something…
■■■!</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
<p>Chandlerbing- keep your head up buddy! whoop whoop!</p>
<p>I’m dead I’ve lost all hope</p>
<p>ahhh it really helps if you avoid CC for a few days 
I feel a lot better now :)</p>
<p>Avoiding CC seems to be impossible for me, haha.
I’ve taken the “ehh” approach to Yale, too, because if I do anything else I’ll be crushed when I get my rejection. So I’m being cautiously optimistic about college decisions rather than pessimistic, but I’m not hoping for the cow to jump over the moon any time soon.</p>
<p>whew. nine days. pretty soon, it’s gonna end up feeling like the ring. “seven days.”</p>
<p><em>eyes roll to the back of the head; desperate panting and sweating begins</em></p>
<p>but, yea, i feel you chandler. i’ve got more of the “meh” feeling than the “ehh” feeling, but they’re pretty similar. i’m very lax – but i have that optimism staying afloat a little bit, too. lol, that might all change next tuesday but, whatever. different strokes for different folks.</p>
<p>I had a weird day today. I spent an hour at a laundromat in the company of a few sleeping homeless people. It got boring after half an hour, so I sketched a couple of them and then tucked the drawings under the plastic bags they were sleeping on before I left. I hope it makes them happy (although they shouldn’t be worth more than a euro or two…)</p>
<p>*</p>
<p>We’re almost down to 8 days! Ye gods.</p>
<p>^ Awww!!! That’s adorable! I hope they don’t think it’s creepy. If it was me, I would be touched (well, assuming the drawings are good) :)</p>
<p>I am well…sick today
After a day of cricket+swimming in cold water+staying up till 5am
It was sort of expected</p>
<p>8days for decisions
5 days for f1
Yayy</p>
<p>I am also sort of sick today. Apparently the mushrooms last night.</p>
<p>India, how sweet! Like Hookem, I would be touched. Assuming that they were more than just stick figures. ;)</p>
<p>^Aww :\ I had mushrooms in a crepe for lunch. They looked…portentous. I’m guessing we’ll be in a similar boat in a matter of hours.</p>
<p>I like to think the drawings were good - I’m funding my gap year/bought this here laptop of mine with sold artwork!</p>
<p>(Heh. Watch me leave the house only to find the sketches scrunched up at my doorstep, smeared in fully processed McDonald’s and VOUS ETES NUL [you suck] scrawled on the ground, with a Michelangelo-esque spray-painted portrait of me {scruffy-haired and all} drawn by the hobos, who turned out to be not-so-starving artists involved in a social experiment).</p>
<p>Yes, the mushrooms were the edible, store-bought kind…</p>
