Vent your Feelings Thread (USC Scholarship Style)

<p>So… I’ve been hoping and waiting for a letter from USC saying that I have been selected to interview for a scholarship all week now. I’ve checked my online status more times than I can count… I’ve even tried to log into Oasis …just to see… but.no.</p>

<p>And so I have shared my feelings. I think it’s important for us to all share our feelings throughout this process so we don’t become the passive-aggressive people who crack one day under the pressure.</p>

<p>Feel free to talk about everything and anything… cuz I have a feeling… we’ll be waiting for a long time…</p>

<p>Hey im in the same boat as you…my status is stuck at prelim review since 12/11…and i check at least 5 times a day!</p>

<p>though it does seem that when im at school or with friends i feel happy (weird…), but as soon as i get near a computer alone and get online…the frustration and stress kicks in.</p>

<p>right now i am at this point where when i’m at home I do absolutely nothing except worrying about this scholarship and my future. this seems to be my only lifeline out of the state school that i do not want to attend. all the other colleges i apply to are way above what i can afford…</p>

<p>there are still a couple of weeks left before we get the final verdict so don’t give up yet. I know i haven’t…i still check cc and the mail and my online status like crazy…but i agree that things aren’t looking too good for us. :(</p>

<p>anyway long rant but all this can be summed up in a quote by Tennyson</p>

<p>“Lose yourself in action lest you wither in despair.” </p>

<p>despite how effing hard it is…</p>

<p>haha I was good today. Only checked twice!!! Of course I went shopping the rest of the time… so I guess it doesn’t make it any better. What state are you from? I do have some hope from my cc stalking of the USC threads that there might be another batch send today.</p>

<p>What is your major you selected? I think I made a major mistake( haha no pun intended) by choosing health promotions… ahhhhh…</p>

<p>well there is mail, therefore hope, tomorrow. I wish you best of luck! Update when you get in!! because I know you will get an awesome scholarship! :)</p>
