We Are The Waiting

<p>Ignore my awesome Green Day reference in the title there. (Or not, if you love Green Day like me!)</p>

<p>A board for those of us still waiting. So that we can have a place to relinquish. So that we can discuss how much we want to be receiving letters.</p>

<p>Or to bash AP Government.</p>

<p>Your call.</p>

<p>Anyways.</p>

<p>WAITING SURVEY!</p>

<p>What a great idea :)</p>

<p>But I am a parent and I don’t think I should answer personal questions like “Loving” and “Hating” for my son who is waiting. I don’t even think he knows any of these, he rarely looks at any of his college stuff.</p>

Hating: 10K run tomorrow, crazy humidity/rain, mail or email from colleges I applied to with misleading subject lines</p>

<p>Also, I HAVE to go to a Chipotle every time I go on a trip (sad, none here :frowning: ) and I like AP Lit. (see “Loving” answer) But that might be because my teacher is a crazy stereotypical Berkeley guy who wore “Cal” shorts today.
And I tend to ramble, which is funny because I was the quiet girl for the longest time. I try not to, but…I’m doing it again.</p>

<p>Edit: I lied, I saw my grade for the last big English test. I like it less now. =P</p>

<p>Oh my gosh. I just want to know!</p>

<p>Would the admissions people be annoyed if I tried to call to ask?</p>

<p>I’ve been on ‘reviewed by committee’ forever! I want a scholarship so bad too! But mostly I just want acceptance. Asdfghjkl;!</p>

<p>check your thing again oxolojo mine just changed like within lsat couple hours i believe to forwarded for comittee review.</p>

<p>nope. Still on “reviewed by committee.”</p>

<p>Okay, I’m noticing how many of you don’t have PETS. :frowning: Gee,we have 2 dogs and 4 cats and I take care of them all. I’m the mom of an applicant so I won’t fill out the questionnaire for her. :slight_smile: She never visits CC, but I’m afraid it’s become addicting for ME . ;)</p>
