I would like to highlight the increase in usage of emoticons around May 15th.
Best of luck everyone!!!!
I've had an unlucky night/morning. The wireless connection in my apartment was NOT working last night. I tried to go to bed early (~12:45am), but I kept waking up in the middle of the night. I got out of bed about two hours before I had planned to wake up, eager to get my free iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts- I decided to get one after I got to work. I had to wait on the subway platform for at least fifteen minutes- (5) trains were running on the (2) track because of "an investigation/incident," and for some reason, (1) trains (I take the (1)) were mega-delayed. I got to my stop and walked the ~3 blocks uptown to my Dunkin Donuts. It was closed with a sign saying "Temporarily closed." I decide to walk downtown until I pass by the next Dunkin Donuts (at this point, I'm DETERMINED to get my free coffee + not-free donut). About 8 blocks later, I find the next Dunkin Donuts (ah, America). I go in, ready to get my coffee. Turns out that they don't start giving free iced coffee until 10am (it was ~9am at that point). Defeated (and really pretty hungry), I walk back to work, getting a carrot muffin and instant hot cocoa at my favorite bakery on the way. I'm hoping that my day gets better.

OK, no one freak out, I did NOT get a phone call from Duke...
...but I did just find out that I am going to be a doctor!!! Holy crap! So exciting! (Trying to avert emoticon usage so as not to give anyone a heart attack!)
Of course, Duke still remains my first choice, but the angst has just been decreased a million fold, since I AM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR! eeeeeeeeeee!!!
I think this was definitely the right move. I'm sure you'll get a great education there if Duke doesn't work out.For those keeping up with my storyline, i ultimately chose robert wood johnson umdnj over miami miller. Thanks to those who helped.
*hugs nova*
oh, youre so soft! is it the white coat? it IS!
YAY for Nova
Mobarak!
Hehe, love it. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
'grats, nova, on the acceptance and 'grats, bunny, on the coffee! Good to see spirits are high.
Lolla - I prolly suck down 30+ oz of coffee a day.
I'm thinking of adding another project to my third year: "Detrimental effects on patient care of unknowingly decaffeinated physicians."
I'm still pinching myself, and wondering if it's true, but I just got an e-mail from RW offering me a position in the class of 2012! I cannot believe this, but in the space of 24 hours I went from thinking I'd have to reapply to having two acceptances, one at my number one choice! Just in a state of shock right now....
I don't know if I got an e-mail and not a phonecall because I am in Canada, but in any case, I am really hoping that more of you guys from this thread get accepted! GOOD LUCK!
I guess whoever said 0 calls wins the pool....due to emails instead

Well, i dont think any of us want to call and seem needy. If only we all knew someone who was already accepted so it wouldnt matter if they bothered a busy admissions office...

WOW!!! Congrats!!! I actually heard you were in like an hour ago from two of my classmates who know you and said that you had gotten in. I was like... wait... I know her. My classmate was like, "How?" and I was like, "From SDN of course..." and then she was like, "I wouldn't go telling too many people that." LOL!!! She was only half-way joking.
nova, congrats!! That is awesome, awesome news. I was totally impressed when I read your letter of interest and I have no doubt the admissions office was as well. Will you be coming here then?Haha! Yah, please don't tell anyone! (Seriously, don't tell anyone!) It can be our little secret, khob? I like to at least pretend thatI'm cool and nonchalant, and being part of a hardcore pre-med internet forum sort of diminishes that appearance, ya know!
THANKS GUYS. (And I wish I had the guts to call the admissions office for y'all, but I am too chicken...)

Looks like it was worth the wait for you. Congrats, sounds like you'll make a great doctor.

Bunny and Kuhlguy (and whoever else is still in waitlist hell) -- I am also sending you my good karma for your other waitlists.
SBBunny don't give up. Instead heed the wise words of .38 Special:

I am close to 100% positive that there will be more acceptances coming our way. Just got to keep praying!
