I don't think that's sad. I completely understand. OChem II had me worried right up to the end, too. The thought of having an acceptance pulled is frightening. 😱

I was expecting a call from the Pyxis repair technician at work (not fun). A coworker said that I had a call. So, I expected the pyxis guy and picked up the line and the person said, "This is the admissions counselor from Creighton University College of Pharmacy. I am so sorry to call you at work. Do you have time to talk? (I say yes, although we were totally slammed) I was wondering if you were still interested in attending our program". . . I just stopped breathing...and the tears were gushing out. I dont think I could choke out anything but "I am" and "thank you".
I hung up the phone, leaned against the counter, and was cry/laughing.
My dad travels a lot and has some health problems, so one of my coworkers thought something bad had happened. She asked if my dad was ok. I knodded and choked out, "I got in. I'm in!" The girl screams, "OH MY GOD SHE'S IN. She got accepted!" Everyone I work with (three pharmacists and five techs) ran an we all had a group hug. Someone else had to take my drug run to the floor because I couldnt quit laughing and crying and so I could call my husband (ahhhhh he was on a field trip and would not answer the phone😛). I called the school where my mom works and told her. (She later said that she did not lecture the rest of the day.) My husband called me back 2 hours later (he was on a field trip and finally got my message) and he was screaming in the phone. When I got off work we went out with some friends and family to eat and watch Iron Man.
I cried at random for the next three days. It has been over month and I am still on cloud 9. I have spent three years trying to get in and I have finally been blessed with an acceptance.

I was randomly checking my email one day (around this time last year) and I saw that I got an email from the Dean at the Rutgers Pharmacy school. I had applied four times in the past and interviewed twice with them so I was getting pretty darn desperate. When I read that I was accepted, I screamed, laughed, cried, and hyperventilated all at once. I tell you, it was the best feeling in the world.
