Anyone planning to decline Washington University in St. Louis? If you are, please do so sooner rather than later. I'm up against some hard decision deadlines and it would really help... and be greatly appreciated!

BTW: I love your Dowager Countess avatar. I need something like that.

Ha, thanks! I love her and wish I could whip her out of my pocket whenever I'm in need of some cleverness.

This day is creeping by. Ugh.

Living in this thread is simultaneously hope-inspiring and gut-wrenching.

Really excited for all of you :) Thunderpaws, your name fits your noble accomplishments.

My phone has yet to ring :mellow: Knowing UMass had already heard back from most of their acceptees earlier this week makes it a tad unlikely...Does anyone know if it's normal for schools to notify on weekends?

At least it's school vacation, so I can drink my sorrows away Monday night without having to wake up for work. I have to be careful, though. Don't want to start too early and then get that call...

Oh my goodness!! Thunderpaws this is the best news ever!!! I'm so happy for you! Happy dance! I hope you jumped up and down and screamed a lot :)

I'm so happy to hear that! And relieved. Your cohort is going to be so fucking cool! So many GF-ers going to UT-Austin next year.

I've been keeping track of this thread to see what happens to you (creepy, right?). I AM SO HAPPY! Not just for you, but everyone who's getting in.

Thank you so much everyone!!! All the support and inspiration here kept me going through all these weeks. If TGF was a bar, I would get the next round for everyone!

Seriously, you guys are going to have the raddest cohort. So many lovely grad cafe folks!

Drank a boatload of caffeine today and read a boatload of journal articles. Now I feel like this:

Well, the crazytrain should be all over in the next 48 hours, and then I can move on with my life. :)

Yay! I'm so excited for you :) I've been thinking happy thoughts in your direction the last few days.

I'M IN AT UMASS!!!!!!!

Meaning I just got a Writing Program offer via e-mail saying that "I should be hearing good news" from the DGS soon. Since it's not direct from Dr. Clingman, I am harboring this horrible fear that it's not true. BUT IT IS. I THINK.

This can only be the start of a positive trend for the next 48 hours...I hope! Keep 'em coming, GC!

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY! You're going to absolutely love it there, AA. I was really, really impressed by their program when I visited. So was StatelyPlump. So many congratulations!
