This forum has taught me that patience is truly a virtue. I appreciate every single one of you and have put my (A) status e-mail far back in my cabinet file of things that matter so that I can actually continue with my life, be an adult, not fail out of college, etc. In a way I feel a little freed from the burden of having to wait for an e-mail, but now I find myself jumping with excitement with every (212) call I receive thinking it's a call from someone at Fulbright.
Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear, including all of the future fulbrighters and current half-brighters like myself that have to wait FOREVERRRR AND A DAY MORE!
