you are too sweet, thank you. I genuinely hope the same for you. I love love love sharing the exciting news in here - I think we're all so deserving and have worked so hard! I think you are right too, it doesn't matter when it happens, just doing it is a huge deal. We all need like a group coffee and chocolate! 

I am squirrely today. I'm going to need to force myself to not keep checking by just removing my phone for a while. Holy moly, this process is hard!

A little heads up.. Most people on here are cool, some are trolls. Beware! Do not take everything everyone has to say at face value. That goes for the results section as well.

Reminder: you are all great even if it doesn’t work out 

OK, so it is starting to get to me this week. 

Good luck everyone, happy Monday/inbox refreshing!

Holy moly! Way to go!! Huge congrats, I can't wait to see what you decide in the end! 

I have certainly had a few moments this last week of anxiety and frequent checking the portal and here. I really thought, based on previous years results pages, that I'd hear from at least one of the two programs I applied to last week - but covid times, world on fire with one crisis after another, a huge amount of applications - it all makes sense that things may take longer. 

I feel oddly at peace with it this weekend. I have no explanation for it, and I'm sure I'll resume the frequent checking and trying to reassure myself come tomorrow but for today I'm like, it is what it is. I have a solid plan of what I'll do in the next year in the event I am unsuccessful. As much as it pains me to think like that and I'll likely be pretty devastated - I do know what I plan to do to make myself the best candidate I can be for the following year. (Also, I may need a reminder of this in the event it does happen!) Today though, I don't know...I'm building some ikea bookcases and maybe its the false sense of control and productivity from watching them come together and my study area get a little more organized - but I'm far less anxious today!
