Class of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I gave greek yogurt a try.... once.... I couldn't even finish the second or third bite. I thought it was gross. 🙁 Why does everyone seem to love it so much?

personal tastes. i don't like it by itself either. i cook w/ it or if it has some additional ingredients its delicious. as a topping for gyros, its great mixed with a little lemon juice, chopped parsley, and diced cucumbers.

speaking of food, lunch time!
 
still no email or snail mail.
🙁
at least I got my new baller watch sized and can wear it now!!!
 
lol I was just trying to remember if I still had mine -- it might actually fit me now

I wear my jr high track shirt on a regular basis. It was actually our uniforms (not just a team shirt)... I can't believe we had to wear them!!! I probably looked like a pillow cover running around in circles.

I'm kind of mad... my times were probably hampered by having to wear that parachute :laugh:

🙁 😕 so strange that you're in a weird limbo. i wonder if they have your email address down correctly?
 
yo I tried to ask you earlier, but not getting an email is a good thing right?
I guess so but there are like 3 or 4 of us who have heard nothing.

I called the office just now and asking about emails because I am worried that my email might have gotten eaten by my spam folder-the lady asked me my name and to confirm my email...saying that is the email that they would use and that my decision has not gone out.
Sounds terrible to me. What on earth possessed me to call that damn place!
 
btw caniac also interviewed at duke. i wanna wish the homegirl luck also!

:luck: caniac!!!

Hey now, I've spent serious time listening to my fiancee talk math to me. :laugh: Her abstract algebra article got accepted for publication, so I've heard all about that. It's called, "Zero-Divisor Graph Associated to a Semigroup," whatever that means. 😛

Ooh cool!!! I really liked abstract. I, at least, know what all the words in the title mean. 🙂 I didn't know your fiancee was all math-y! She can be super cool too.

Oh Taty, maybe you're thinking into it too much. Don't give up yet.

Oh I know I am. Plus my runner's high is finally leaving me for today. While driving home the crazy thought that my mom may have gotten my letter and just not told me yet went through my head.
Anyways, eating peach flavored greek yogurt (Chobani...got it at Publix) and it is pretty darn good but a bit chalky.
 
still no email or snail mail.

:xf: for you Taty!

And niceeeee with the watch! I got a sweet watch last year for my bday and I wear it almost every day now. Feel naked without it.

She did two summers of math research before stumbling onto pharmacology. Turns out biosciences graduate programs love math people, and she got into pretty much every program with just one summer of pharm research under her belt. WashU and Michigan both loved her, it took them like 3 days to accept her. :laugh:
 
Totally. Thanks Stanford, for waiting so long to mail me my rejection that I actually forgot I applied until I saw the envelope, momentarily got excited again, only to be crushed with disappointment.

That happened to me the other day. I just assumed it was a rejection as soon as I saw it, though.

bb get a facebook

seriouslyyy

Let's all send Taty loads of luck!! (And anyone else waiting for news)

:xf::luck::xf::luck::xf::luck::xf::luck::xf:

👍
 
Thanks everyone! I cannot believe how much support everyone is showing me...did I really whine that much lol?!
I felt really terrible when dukejen posted that she got rejected. Met her at Tulane and she is a super cool girl. 🙁

OK I just glanced over the Duke thread and what kind of pattern are they going in. Waitlists on Monday, then this morning, then rejections, then accepted emails, and there's still more to send out. It's like a mad house.
 
I'm writing a paper pretty much solely with wikipedia.

Yay senioritis.

I saw a fb bumper sticker the other day that said "Senioritis. We'd fight for a cure but we just don't care that much." Made me giggle.

ha, i always liked the red bumper sticker that says if this sticker is blue, then you're driving too fast.

Actually waitlists were sent this morning 30 minutes before the rejections were sent out.
Acceptances are snail mail and most were received yesterday.
Really, I need to stop whining-I really loved Tulane and will be happy if that is the place where I end up. It is just hard letting a dream school go, I guess.

You're not letting anything go just yet.

Also, you're right, Tulane is badass. Keep your chin up either way Tats 😉

Why would they only send acceptances via snail mail?? You'd think they'd want to let you know asap! 😕

Btw...the newest torture that Emory implemented for me is only that. No acceptance as of yet.

I have no idea why that is their route. Some people found out cause they got the second look email. I am just trying to remain relatively zen as endorphins are making their way out of my bloodstream.
Torture, thy name is Duke.
Fo Sho.

Yesterday, one of the admitted students messaged me and told me that he/she would love to have me as a classmate-that made me smile 🙂


Edit: in my opinion this is a confirmation that bad news are rolling my way:

Hello again Tatastrophy,
I forgot to mention you should check your spam filter as well.
You need to turn that off while you're waiting for decisions.
But do check where ever your system drops messages it thinks
may be spam.

Best,

I ate two baked potatoes today. Tie me on a string and fly me in the Macy's Day Parade.
 
Sammy you will probably go and post on your phone the whole time anyways

Ok that actually sounds delicious. I freaking love gyros.

Lunch today though was seared pepper flank steak with garlic butter, wild rice pilaf, and steamed asparagus with more butter. Yeah, I sorta fell off the diet wagon today.
 
My computer is becoming extremely difficult to bring to school with me now - it barely closes. I feel like the next time I close it, it might snap. I might have to buy a new computer soon after all... 🙁
 
bb, think how connected YOU could be with a facebook!
 
haha, right before i start med school. but i like my life w/o fb, my friends dont even keep walls anymore

one thing i miss though,
whenever we have big parties or events, we would take turns writing rhymes on the event board. it was good stuff
