The only jobs that seem to be open for me right now are adjunct instructor positions. Not enough pay to live on really. I guess I could apply for a job at walmart, but I don't want to be the guy with a MS that is pushing shopping carts...

cheap vodka that tastes like hairspray (not a lot of it though), angry conversation in my head, thoughts that I won't get in anywhere, and then sleep.

This is the perfect description for me as well. Seeing all these other people in the same situation as me makes me feel better. Misery loves company kind of thing.

I got a Plan B, but I've been doing it this past year and am tired of it.

I like the "good luck in your future endeavors, which will not be here" type stuff.

Very nice. I really enjoyed it.

I'm trying to get into social psychology, so I'll just say it is me... still waiting. It's like Tom Petty says "the waiting is the hardest part". Also, I hope I used "it's" properly (probably didn't).

Congrats on the acceptance.

I hate the "I'm sure you'll get in somewhere" line. My well meaning family still keeps looking up the articles about how someone got in a couple of days before classes start to try to give me hope. I have explained, more than once, that that is not the norm or actually anywhere near what occurs with some type of regularity. Then a rejection letter later, BOOM, another case of some magical incident.

That says it all.

To saecla vincere, You're right. I was just distracting myself for a while. Looking through new schools and people did actually take up a few hours time and I feel like I did something positive. Good luck when you start applying.

Is anyone else starting to look at places to apply for in the next go-around? Maybe it is just me.

Rejected from Kansas and WashU in St. Louis. Wait listed at SLU. Other places are quiet, a little too quiet...

Last year was a lot like this year for me. My rejections didn't start rolling in until mid to late march. This time I've been put on a wait list, so improvement?
