hi guys, longtime lurker, just joined because... existential anxiety, i suppose. also want to let you guys know this thread has been a great source of solace. im a nonfiction applicant, applied to pittsburgh, UCSD, idaho (moscow), and rutgers-camden. have heard nothing from anybody, and have a stinky feeling these next couple of weeks are going to change my life. dunno what kind of change, tho. either way, trying to visualize rejection as redirection. good luck, everyone!!
