I've been reading you guys for a while so I figured it was about time I joined in!
I hear and share your whining - I applied to roughly 20 programs while working for 40+ hours and it was insane. Plus I decided I would not tell anyone I was applying until I had a positive result (if ever). Well of course my girlfriend, whom I'm living with, and my best friend know, but that's it. They're pretty busy with their own stuff so I don't really have anyone to talk about it. This wait is killing me!
Oh btw I am a Spaniard myself, so reading @piglet33 's "quiero que todos los tacos" made me laugh my head off! Please @rhombusbombus do not learn that sentence haha. I'll have to admit that "hola, dos cervezas por favor" will get you a long way though...
