<p>Heheh it’s all good, but I think I will end up watching it before the 15th…
We must stay strong!! If I get deferred I think I could still watch it afterwards, but being rejected would make it awful.</p>
<p>I totally agree. I’m submitting my Harvard app tomorrow and Princeton a few days later, so they’ve kept me pretty busy. (And thank goodness.)</p>
<p>I’ve been attacking my Rice app myself, so I know what you mean. I’m probably just transferring my Yale supplement essay into the Harvard one, so Harvard will be sent soon also :)</p>
<p>I’ve got another teacher letter (which I think will be quite good) and a sports captainship that happened after the submission deadline. I also have the potential for a big state/national thing to come up, but the earliest it could be seen by a Yale admissions officer would be the 10th. Would it be best to send them an update now, or to wait until next week?</p>
<p>Huh that’s a predicament…for SCEA I would personally send something now and then again for the 10th, because most apps will be finalized by then…</p>
<p>How do you know apps will be finalized by the 10th?</p>
<p>I just finished the Ivy Dreams video…and feel slightly nauseous. :-/</p>
<p>we’re all in this together</p>
<p>We are. And then, some of us will get in and some of us won’t. :-/</p>
<p>For some reason, I feel like we’re in the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan. Anyone else feel like that?</p>
<p>I haven’t seen the movie. </p>
<p>I’m getting my decision early morning of December 16th because of the time difference. Which means I have an extra 12 hours wait. Ugh.</p>
<p>Where are you from?</p>
<p>In the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan, there a bunch of soldiers in boats, getting prepared to launch the invasion. Some of them get gunned down. Others don’t. A rather macabre comparison. Sigh, :-/.</p>
<p>Asia. </p>
<p>Haha I see why you feel that way. I can imagine it. All of us in blue Yale sweatshirts with hopeful looks on our faces. Only there are giant bulldogs doing the shooting.</p>
<p>Many of the soldiers got sick as their boats approached the beach. </p>
<p>I too will probably get sick/nauseous/throw up/go into cardiac arrest moments before the decision.</p>
<p>It would be cool is a lot of us got in and then met each other on Bulldog Days. Lol. It’d probably be awkward and we’d most likely not even realize who’s who, but still. A funny thought. That makes me even more anxious. About getting decisions. From Yale. In less than three weeks.</p>
<p>^Well since this forum has over 1% of the applicant pool, and probably will have an above-average acceptance rate, there’s a good chance accepted students run into each other eventually!</p>
<p>EDIT: forgot that this is only the pool for SCEA lol, there are so many more hearts waiting to be crushed in April.</p>
<p>Lol, true. And many of those hearts will be SCEAers… who get deferred… and then rejected…</p>
<p>Okay we need to stop being so pessimistic. </p>
<p>Hmm, we should invent a secret handshake, or a wave, or item of clothing that will distinguish us from the rest should we get accepted.</p>
<p>The Stanford REA thread is literally 4 or 5 times as active as this. They all know each other.</p>
<p>Agreed! Let’s get positive. 
I say if we get accepted, we should all wear something most people wouldn’t… lol. I just don’t know what.</p>
<p>guys we’re all doomed, no ones making it ok just forget it man FORGET IT ITS ALL OVER</p>
<p>Harvard shirts? Just kidding 
I think this is a great idea though!</p>
<p>The saddest part of that scene in Saving Private Ryan was a guy who was praying on his rosary. And then, his friend got killed, I think.</p>
<p>GUYS…I want to make it out alive!!!</p>
