<p>That isn’t fair. I hope everything goes well and you get your A! :)</p>
<p>thanks for the support guys. I’m going to build up my courage and talk to her tomorrow</p>
<p>goooooooooooooooooood luck!</p>
<p>I got up the courage to speak with the teacher… and guidance made a mistake!!! I really got an A… <em>does the hokey pokey like the Yale bulldog on all of your acceptance pages</em> Thanks for all your support guys</p>
<p>Glad to hear it worked out…funnily enough, an art grade was my worst ever, too…and art is supposedly my hook. An art teacher I had in 10th grade counted off for who knows what…I had helped her clear things away after class, always gotten things in on time, cleaned the art room, etc…and then I get an A-? She wouldn’t change it, though. Ah well.</p>
<p>Hahaa Michelle, that’s awesome to hear! I told you so! Just a silly dilly mistake :)</p>
<p>Kebree, no worries, your art will surely speak for itself!</p>
<p>Yes, thanks…I hope so, anyway! But it lowered my GPA, grrrrr.</p>
<p>aw… you guys, go read the Columbian Predictions thread. now theyve all given up attacking eachother and have resolved to compliment the Yalies for being such a wonderful friendly community. read about whole thread to see how nasty it was!! goodness. it makes me feel special. Freakish borrowed the opener to our predictions thread, and when i say borrowed i mean copied and pasted, and its interesting to see how their board differed so much from ours.
anyhoo… enjoy</p>
<p>That thread evolved into nothing less than a disaster over there! If I get turned down by Yale, I’m going to have to migrate over there 
I don’t want to leave you guys and have to be a part of that.</p>
<p>hey its not that bad… we have tons of fun over there!
and we do love each other…
ok i have to say there are a very few certain individuals that we have decided we dont take a liking to… but hey… it’s all good :)</p>
<p>its a loada fun</p>
<p>ahhhhhhhhh!!!
i just finished at our schools winter concert and i had this HUGE English Horn solo in Russian Christmas music in the band. AND I PLAYED IT PERFECTLY. aahhhhh. it was amazing. okay thats my lifes story 
im just too happy to be online and not do anything</p>
<p>That’s soooo much fun! Our winter concert is Tuesday…I’m psyched. Especially for playing in orchestra…that’s my favorite part 
(sorry to be a traitor to BAND, victoria 
)</p>
<p>good luck w/ your concert! good luck w/ exams, guys!</p>
<p>cc sent me an email wishing me a happy birthday! aww. It’s sad seing age:17 next to my name. 16 was there only 20 min. ago. :(</p>
<p>Chidimma, how can you be so young? There are many people on this board who are 18, and over one year older than you.</p>
<p>Different schools have different cutoff dates. In my district, it’s late–sometime in December. My friend is Atlanta was pushed into the next grade because her birthday is after April. I think that most of us are 17, though…</p>
<p>And Chidimma, 17 is such an awesoooomme age :D:D HAVE FUN</p>
<p>Happy birthday Chidimma!</p>
<p>hey chidimma…thanks for that post on the victory thread…
when i saw that… i felt like someone just poked a metal rod through my heart… it really hurt…</p>
<p>its bad enough that i feel horrible and feel like a long term boyfriend dumped me…</p>
<p>but seeing that really just crushed me…
i know i shouldnt feel bitter or resentful for those amazing people that got in…</p>
<p>but i cant stop wondering why and… why me… what did i do wrong… why didnt they like me…
why am i a reject… am i crap?</p>
<p>i know that i am going to move on… and im strong and ill get to some place good where ill be happy. but right now im sad… and i feel like i need to cry… need to mourn…
its sad…</p>
<p>happy birthday and good luck! muah*</p>
<p>this thread is one of my favorites. you guys are so silly, it’s great</p>
<p>aww, Michelle! We miss you! happy holidays! :)</p>
