Sitting in my bed watching episodes of Heroes... the phone rings... I'm like man how annoying... right in the middle of Heroes... I pick up the phone and I see 919-XXX-XXXX... I think "NO! This can't be... it's not even May 16th... who else could it be though???" I answer.

Me: "Hello"

RW: Females, this is the moment you have been waiting for!

Me: Oh my god, oh my god... (kept repeating that for a while)

RW: Enjoy your weekend and graduation. We'll see you next fall.

Me: FREAK OUT!!!

Are you serious!?!?!?!?!?

:biglove: WOOHOOOOOO!!! Congratulations, Females!!! :bow: I'm so excited for you! :clap: :clap: :clap:
 
OMGOSHNESS CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! :biglove: :biglove: :biglove: :biglove: Now if only Duke could show me that kinda love too
 
you guys should have heard him on the phone "FREAK OUT" is quite the understatement 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍

congrats dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!👍 👍 👍 👍
 
For FCD: :banana: :banana: :banana: :beat: :banana: :banana: :beat: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Some may say the above post is an example of excessive use of emoticons (diosa). Considering the circumstances, I would have to disagree.

CONGRATS, DUDE!

P.S. I actually had used more emoticons but the server said I had to decrease it before I could post. Sigh.
 
Aw man! I wish I'd have been there.

The one girl I got to tell who hadn't found out yet may or may not have perfed my eardrum. 😀 That was pretty sweet.
 
I don't know what to say without cursing up a storm. OMGWTF is appropriate here! that is absolutely amazing!!! i don't even know you but am beyond excited for you because it was so clear how badly you wanted this!!!

and see....your dream about duke...you knew it before it even happened!!! 🙂 congratulations a million times!!!!
 
I will add, for the other waitlisters on the board, that please don't stress if you don't hear anything before May 16. From my class, one person got in the week before, most of us heard on May 16, and a few heard as late as June (well, at least one did).In previous classes, some have heard as late as late July. So, congratulations again to FCD 🙂banana🙂 and good luck to those still waiting to hear!
 
alright! that's awesome to hear, congratulations dude! see you 2.5 months! 🙂

btw: you watch heroes too? isn't it an awesome show? i'm halfway in love with the mad mutant killer, even though he cuts people brains out for fun. he would have been such a good surgeon!
 
Congrats FCD!!!!!! 👍 👍 👍 .....you deserve it...and congrats on a stress free weekend too....not for the rest of us :scared:

what?!?!? they let you make a call?!?
 
Thanks soooooo much to everyone for the nice wishes!!! Seriously, it is so refreshing to see a group of my future colleagues coming together and rooting for someone (like myself) who you don't even know other than through sdn. I am honored to be going into a profession with all of you and hope to be graced by your presence at some time during my career. For you other Dukies (god am I seriously a Dukie now???), I will see you next year.

And ya... just ask RW how verbally gifted I am... I'm sure he was like... "Is all this kid can say is "Oh my god"... are you sure we let the right person in???" LOL... anyway...

Oh ya... and I called blackrsx and he ignored my call... then txt msged me saying he was at the lab to which I replied "Answer!!!" Then I called back and he was like "What dude?" sounding all annoyed and I just started screaming (actually it was screeching) DUUUUUUUUKE!!!!!!!!! I'M GOING TO DUUUUUUUKE!!!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Oh god... i need to calm down. Thanks again guys and I'll still be on here rooting yall on... let the countdown to May 16th continue!!!

what?!?!? they let you make a call?!?

There was a day a couple days after Admit Day when they had us call everyone who was on the list to ask if they had any questions. Most had already received their stuff by then but there were a few who hadn't. They were the fun ones. 😀
 
congrats FCD! :hardy: now back to biting my nails.

Thanks, Chester. And good luck to all of you this coming week. Husky, ryandote, and byong, yall know you have a special place in my heart. Hope yall all get in, though. EVERYONE!!!!😍
 
:bow: :hardy: :biglove: :bow: 😀 :bow: :biglove: :hardy: :bow:

That should just about cover it. 😎

FCD, time for a new signature line!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yay, congrats!:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

See you in a couple of months!


Also, John Madden - you can do research anywhere you want. Another school, another country, whatever.
 
Mmm, nope.

Yeah it did. The signature line only shows up on the first post a person makes on a thread. I am a huge tool for knowing this.

Edit: and by thread, I mean page.
 
damn you FCD, just heard from blackrsx. congrats man. now i need to get off the waitlist too. it happened to you and blackrsx, when's my turn?!?! lolz.

WHAT !!!??!!

I just checked SDN and saw all this crazy commotion on the ol' Duke thread....CONGRATULATIONS, females! Seriously, I am very excited for you and more than a little jealous!

I honestly thought it was another one of your dreams and had to check back through the last few posts to make sure it was all real. What great news for you... you're going to be a Blue Devil!
 
alright! that's awesome to hear, congratulations dude! see you 2.5 months! 🙂

He creeps me out... and what was up with that weird I-have-mommy-issues episode? It really seems like Heroes : mommy issues :: Lost : daddy issues.
 
Did you know that analogies are NOT ON THE SAT anymore?!
I think that's crap. Total crap. Kids will no longer be able to make such astute observations as the one above and relay them in a succinct and universally recognizable manner. It's the end of an era.

Hey. I'm all about standardized tests. I had a 2.0, zero research, and zero ECs. Guess what my MCAT had to be to get in here?

Erm. It's late and I'm terrified because I just saw 28 weeks later. You'll have to excuse me.

1) my guess is ure mcat was like a 100Z
2) did you watch 28 days later on FX???

Sucks when your GPA is lower than your BAC on most weekend nights, doesn't it? In my case, my GPA was fine but my MCAT was lower than my BMI 🙁

Well, when you're that fat. . . . 't'ain't that hard to do.

😱 I think that is what is referred to on That 70s Show as a.... BUUUUURRN! (doubly ironic since you were burning Burns :laugh: )

OK... so yall are gonna have to get used to the lame jokes I tell like that one... 😛 :banana:
 
Fat AND dumb. Wow. Duke sure knows how to pick 'em. No wonder we started that Ugly Med School Chicks facebook group.
 
Are yall two always on sdn or what??? 😍

We have a test Monday. Enough said. BTW, this whole test-every-two-weeks things blows. Enjoy blocks 1-3, future Dukies, cuz Block 4 will eat your heart out.
 
Although I just remembered that whole 7 tests in 8 weeks disaster in Normal Body. Oh, how quickly we forget..
 
well, it's the only way to get their unresolved sexual tension out in the open.

burns talking crap about pagemma's alcohol problems = i want to get you drunk and have my way with you.

pagemma making fun of burns' body issues = i'll meet you in the amphitheatre for some late night anatomy refreshing. with my tongue.

when you've been with them for as long as i have, you learn to read the underlining messages. it's when they start bringing matt cartmill into the equation that you tend to start worrying.

haha, eat your heart out... it's funny cuz i'm reading about endocarditis 🙂

I judge a block by two factors: 1) the frequency of emotional breakdowns on my part, and 2) number of branchiostoma references per week. Clearly, block 2 was THE WORST.

How was graduation, FCD?
 
How was graduation, FCD?

Wow... yall are freakin hilarious. I think we are all gonna get along splendidly 😀 My graduation was good. Look at my facebook pics. The last one is of me and my parents in my new Duke shirt. My friends got it for me last minute for my graduation party. They rule. I have like a whole outfit now... I'm gonna be that kid on the first day of classes with Duke bball shorts, Duke shirt, Duke cap, and big sign that says "Way too happy to be at Duke" unknowingly pinned on my back. Hey Burns and Pagemma, check ure facebooks... I msged yall.
