fancypants09 reacted to scribnera in Fall 2015 Applicants
The NYU acceptance was me! Thank you! Don't think I've posted my stats before, but you were right anyway.
I'm at the recruitment weekend for Emory comp lit, so this news was totally overwhelming to receive right now, but in the best possible way. I keep checking my phone to make sure the number is still there in my recent calls because I am in such shock.

Not an English applicant, but you guys, just got my first acceptance to UCLA! National lit department. Had a good, happy cry in my apartment. Here's wishing good news to all!

Congratulations to everyone!! One of the perks of being in the other hemisphere is waking up to the good news on GC It definitely makes up for waking up to 17 emails, none of them from the schools to which I applied.
I mentioned this elsewhere yesterday, but just telling myself not to expect any communication has been really helpful---I've learned to refresh my inbox less, and I actually got some decent amount of sleep last night! And also, I second lyonnessrampant's suggestion on taking care of yourself during this process. I started cooking at home again last night, and I found that smashing tofu for my tofu scramble was the first thing that made me laugh in a long time.

Out of upvotes but I love this! I want to emblazon it above my desk or something.
(until I get to the point where I'm just wondering, "why doesn't Berkeley want to be with meeeee?" like a moonstruck teenager.)

Okay guys sorry I spoke too soon...
As soon as I sent my message the Berkeley acceptance arrived.
I'm kind of in awe.

Big hugs to you both, and wishing all of us good news soon! Still waiting on the official rejection letter from national lit department from yesterday...it seems like acceptances and waitlists were sent out yesterday/today.

In other news LinkedIn has sent me three emails this morning all pitching job openings. Maybe the universe is trying to tell me something...

A short pause from the gifs to say, this thread is what is helping me keep it somewhat together.
