How is everyone dealing with the suspense? Going crazy on this end too - I had surgery on Monday so I have nothing to do but lay around checking my email and re-reading my written answers compulsively.

PhysioBabe Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 that is halarious... I did that the other day too... re-read my answers for Queens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepeak12 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 This wait is really agonizing. I initially planned to sleep in as much as possible so the day will go by faster, but it hasn`t worked so far. On the bright side...for people who applied to Mac or UWO, they send out their letters at 12am! I`m not from Ontario so this will be 10 pm on the 16th for me.

SeaGal Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Going crazy on this end too - I had surgery on Monday so I have nothing to do but lay around checking my email and re-reading my written answers compulsively. Hang in there Oh god! I can't even look at my answers. If I did I'd only find mistakes and things I'd change :-( I do wish U of A did their offers at the same time though. It's almost worse waiting around each month end with my fingers crossed. Makes the waiting game so much more stressful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleOT Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 16 more days! Try to enjoy them as much as you can lol Keep reminding yourselves that there's nothing more you can do for now! Of course, it's easier said than done, so try to keep busy - read a book, go out with friends, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogaandtea Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Oh geez, I'm actually in Asia right now so it's May 18th for me! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Trying to make plans each weekend so it goes by faster. And I haven't reread my answers in a while, but I'm about to lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingers_crossedMTL Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Well its good to see I'm not the only one haha when you guys say "re-read" your written answers, you mean Queens right? I wish I even remember how I did in the MMIs but its just a big blur... All I remember was their facial expressions lol some nicer than others. Hang in there guys! Pretty soon we'll be celebrating (or throwing myself off a bridge) LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepeak12 Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Haha I remember there's this one lady in the MMI that was frowning all the time I was talking. Fortunately she also gave frowns to other people I've talked to, which means maybe it's just normal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried if it was something I did but her facial expressions definitely made me feel uncomfortable haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabby Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I am losing my mind!!! I need to know! But actually, it is very inconvenient to find out so late in terms of apartment searching, moving, Applying to student awards, etc.... And depending on where I go I am going to have to organize selling my car on top of everything else. STRESS. This is, of course, assuming I get in at all.

Mhunte03 Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm on so many pain killers right now I keep having these very realistic dreams of getting a Queen's acceptance - I really hope that this is a good sign lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kismet Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I think seeing these countdowns is making me more anxious! Even if I didn't check this forum though, I'd probably be counting down on my own anyway haha. So close yet so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Tulip Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 I think it some ways it is really nice that each school replies on the same day (and some at the same time). It saves a lot of suspense and stress for the students. Having been in positions where you have no idea when you will get a response to having a concrete date, I'd much rather prefer the concrete. I find it fun to countdown and have a goal (set date), makes the wait more fun and suspenseful. Also, 12 more days I should make a rainbow with this..

dabby Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I feel crazy and irrational, haha. I go from being cool as a cucumber to freaking out... Even if I do get in I feel like there are still so many things to get in order before I can relax! Mainly... Money situations, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I do get in I feel like there are still so many things to get in order before I can relax! Mainly... Money situations, lol. I agree, and I've actually had to turn down 2 full time job offers because no one will take me on not knowing whether I can commit to the job which sucks!

dabby Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Oh wow that sucks!! Mostly if you don't get in because it is pretty hard to find full time employment these days. I am lucky enough to already have a full-time job in my field, but I really don't feel this whole thing is a match to me, thus the applying to OT, haha. I feel trapped here, so if I don't get in I am going to be very lost in life. But yea, definitely haven't saved enough to make it through 2 years with no income + tuition... I've been trying to apply to awards, but it is very hard when you are not enrolled anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingers_crossedMTL Posted May 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 10 more day until judgement day!!! Its all I think about. I think my friends are getting annoyed of me talking about it haha I can't help it! Money is a big issue for me too, its either going to be a student line of credit or gvmt funding for me. No way I could save that much in a couple of months! All this, if I get in. The daunting question is: what in the world I would do if I didn't...? Its already my second round applying. Anyways, happy thoughts! It helps that the weather is getting nicer though... No? Haha Happy tuesday, fellow stressballs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhunte03 Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Yes I guess the one good way of looking at not getting in this year is it would allow some time to put some money away. Doesn't it feel crazy to think that if not this round within 4 months we'll be starting this process all over again. I really hope those who have applied more than once get in this time around.
