bluecheese Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Maybe OSU cycles through a lot of applications and holds a bunch in reserve just in case?
Two Espressos Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Good news: I finally have a chili pepper on ratemyprofessor. YOUR LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE OH HAI, CLAUDETTE. The chicken was delicious, rice. "If you think I'm tired today, wait until you see me tomorrow!" "Lisa looks so hawt tonight!" "I'm not pregnant: I made it up to make things more interesting!"

ProfLorax Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) For those not in the know. You're welcome. I know that link leads to illegally streaming the movie, but if you pay any money to watch The Room, you're doing it wrong. Edited January 28, 2013 by proflorax

ProfLorax Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 *cough* I own the DVD *cough* Tell me there are AMAZING special features. OMG, is there director commentary?!?! If so, I may have to rescind my previous post.
Two Espressos Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Tell me there are AMAZING special features. OMG, is there director commentary?!?! If so, I may have to rescind my previous post. I'm not sure. There are definitely deleted scenes, an interview with Wiseau, behind-the-scenes footage, etc. The DVD is worth it for the multitudinous spelling/grammar errors alone: iconic scenes are just that much better when they're listed as, e.g., "You're tearing me a part Lisa!"

Haha, what a story, Mark.
Two Espressos Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Haha, what a story, Mark. "You betrayed me! You're not good. You, you're just a chicken. Chip-chip-chip-chip-cheep-cheep."
jrockford27 Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 The Room plays a couple of times a month at one of our local theaters. A few years ago they did a special midnight showing attended by Wiseau himself, as well as the guy who plays Mark, and they answered questions afterward. I went. It was ridiculous.
asleepawake Posted January 28, 2013 Author Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) I watched The Room after this same conversation happened 3 yeas ago when I was applying to MFAs. If you don't know it... it will change your life. You're my favorite customer. Edited January 28, 2013 by asleepawake
sebastiansteddy Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I second the congrats!! So jealous! I am still "In Review." Ughhhhhhhhh.
ProfLorax Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Woohoo for the recent admit! I'm still in review at OSU, so my neurotic self called and asked what was up. They are still meeting and making decisions, so it's not over yet! The Graduate Program Director predicted that all decisions would be made within the next two weeks. Phew! That news will give my index finger a break from the refresh button. Also, I logged into LinkedIn today and saw that the director at a different school where I applied has looked at my profile! I'm trying hard to not get too excited by this revelation... Gwendolyn 1

At least now I know how long the painful, neurotic waiting OSU is putting us through will potentially last. Here's hoping that LinkedIn view means good news is headed your way soon!
sebastiansteddy Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Thanks for letting us know proflorax. I appreciate it!
bluecheese Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Congrats to the Edinburgh acceptance! Such an awesome program!
bluecheese Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 There's another Buffalo acceptance on the board, it seems to be from a while ago.
Porridge Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I saw that, cheeses (sounds like Jesus). I wonder if they send admits on Mondays and Fridays? bluecheese 1
practical cat Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I saw that, my heart sank, I made peace with my assumed rejection and then I saw the date. February is going to be hilarious. Congrats to whoever it is though!
DontHate Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Everyone stop assuming you've been rejected from places. Wait for the places to tell you themselves that you've been rejected. t1racyjacks, asleepawake, 28verses and 2 others 5
t1racyjacks Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I kinda thought that this week would be more busy but so far 2 days and it's been relatively quiet... O well.
NowMoreSerious Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I kinda thought that this week would be more busy but so far 2 days and it's been relatively quiet... O well.If history is any indication, sh*t will start hitting the fan beginning tomorrow.
Eager Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 What schools are you waiting on? Sorry, it took so long to answer...I think this question was to me! Anyhoo (and please don't judge) I have applied to one program. It is a Ph.D. in Rhetoric and Composition, which would be perfect for me since I have been teaching in general for 13 years and teaching composition for 6.
