I think I'm going to work lightly and try and relax as much as possible. But with all my financial information, I think I'll be taking my talents to Ithaca next year!!

Any other URMs still waiting for a decision from Stanford? I don't expect anything other than a ding, but I really am quite perplexed as to what's taking them so long. I've been UR since late January. Wondering if anyone is in the same boat?

If you dreamt it, then it's happening. I never thought I'd see the day when I prayed for DLS to show up in my status checker. How times change.

I was actually thinking of calling the office and pretending I got DLS'ed just to see if they already knew my fate but were playing some cruel game with me.

I think they're playing some cruel game with all of us, Zer0. I can't think of any other explanation for why we've been held this long :|

I just received an e-mail from SEO asking for a follow-up interview. This was after I had a correspondence with my first interviewer asking for proof of a seat confirmation. What exactly should I make of this?
