ComeBackZinc Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I wanted to send some good vibes to you all. Unfortunately, as I am a dope, my image says "DOOG !KCUL," which isn't comforting to anybody. But anyway: *good vibes* *good vibes* *good vibes* Also, I know that you lovely English people will be cheered by the site of an on-campus office (meager though it may be) filled with books. I love love love mine, despite everything. perrykm2, takethiswaltz, Mistral and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent_G Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 This whole process is absolute agony. I'm not typically an emotional eater, but yesterday I polished off a pack of Red Vines without even realizing it until I was done. And today I fully intend to buy myself a banana milkshake. If only I didn't have to wait five more hours to start drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perrykm2 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I've been overeating as well, and my nails are totally tore up from the floor up. My boyfriend says if I get into a program, he will buy me an expensive steak. We never eat meat. I have to get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistral Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I eat whatever is fast and easy. I can't stay in the kitchen long because I might miss acceptances on Grad Cafe... and if I'm not there when acceptances are handed out, then I might not get one. That is probably how it works. Great sign, comebackzinc! I'm glad I hadn't already reached my +1 quota, so that I could give you a 1++++++ (in the voice of Ralphie's teacher).

I know we say this lightheartedly, but my addiction to this forum is seriously a bit scary. I (gasp) really think I would be better off if I hadn't found it. Edit: But of course, I can't leave now, because then I won't get in anywhere, obviously. Edited February 17, 2012 by impending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiona Thunderpaws Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hello everyone! I'm a longtime lurker who finally caved to the siren call of the Grad Cafe-- against the judgment of everyone I know, who seem to think this place only adds to my stress and despondency. But we all know that's crazy, because how can we feel any worse than we do?! I've already started thinking about how I'm going to tell my professors/family/friends I was rejected from everywhere and that hasn't even happened yet. I've also started to plan on Rejection Party, but I haven't gotten past the question of what liquor I should drink yet. People have also starting ask me if drinking really is the best way to cope with this process (the answer is a resounding "yes"). Yep. That's my situation. Hello fellow applicants! It's nice to meet you all officially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've thought about that too, but I know I'd be a MUCH bigger stress case if I didn't have some clue as to when/what people were hearing back from schools. If I hadn't found this site I'd be an absolute wreck, wondering why I hadn't heard anything from anywhere and whether I was the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
