Dear Gmail - Inbox (1), Die in a Fire. Kindest Regards, Me. Forum

[snowpeach06]

Agreed. Although, at times, even spam is better than actually doing my work at work. It's horribly boring, and I always finish in less time than I have to be here anyway. Like right now, 3 hours at work, work I could finish in 45 minutes. Just glad my boss isn't around so I can post on here.

Anyway, fucking 6 schools I still haven't' heard from. 6 options I'm not thrilled with. 2 WL. And an April 15 1st deposit deadline. I just don't get it.

I just really, really needed to bump this thread today.

That is all.

Haha awww thanks <3. It has sexy legs, rainbows AND puppies. What more could you want?

This thread is a sad awakening to what the next year is going to be like for me. Considering how excited and subsequently disappointed I already get when I get a (1) in my law school dedicated gmail hoping for fee waivers and finding out it's just an information session, I do not want to know how I'm going to react when I'm waiting for acceptances.

[cigrainger]

I find it worse when I get an email from a law school I'm not considering because as soon as I see "law" somewhere in the email, another hair turns gray....and when it turns out to be from some place I'm not applying, it falls out.

I have a dark blue label for 'Law School' that is filtered to auto-attach to LSAC emails and emails containing 'law school'. Needless to say, when I get junk from places like Quinnipiac I get pissed.

This morning I called a singing telegram company in my hometown, DC. I gave them a special request. I changed my email address for law schools to a new one and gave only the telegram company access to it. So as soon as the decisions are emailed to me, they will receive it first and send a singing clown to deliver the news to me. I'm sorry for all of you who are receiving decisions by "emails" and "checking websites" because I will get my score from a singing clown named Daffodil. I'll let you all know how it goes!

[kendraston]

For everyone who has a mini heart attach each time that little (1) in your gmail has nothing to do with your law school acceptances.

I just got (1) as I was writing this message. I am resisting my urge to stop writing this post to check it. I hope it dies in a fire.

My sentiments exactly.

Isn't it a little early to be worrying about that?
I get like 100 emails a day. Cannot worry about each one. Would be impossible.
I get a little nervous when one of them is from a law school of course. But I'm kind of planning on December responses. isn't that the most normal? December/January?

This thread is for people who applied last year- though having applied a full 6 days ago the sentiment resonates with me.

Somehow singing clown telegrams don't make up for the unbearable summers.

Obviously you are not as obsessive as most pre-law "lorks"

My inbox has three perpetually unread emails (and I don't remember what they are, they're all from 2008 or earlier I think).

At the very least, this gives me a (#) all the time so that it's not quite as frightening when a new email comes in.

Possible way to slightly lessen fears?
I just sent my apps in and am not expecting until 3rd or 4th week of Nov, but still.

So, so, so awesome! Did you do it for reals?! I also live in DC... I should do it, too!

Hahahaha yeah somehow the difference between Inbox (10120) and Inbox (10121) isn't really that troubling. I KNEW there was a good reason not to delete unread emails!

I did do it for real, but the company got my order confused with that of a Congressional staffer. Yesterday morning, a singing clown handed me a newspaper and informed me of the following:
"Your boss lost his election
His opponent's overjoyed
So here's the classified section
Since you'll soon be unemployed."

It was, to say the least, sobering.

...until i realized it was "An Invitation to Apply to Ave Maria School of Law"

[s0ph1e2007]

I feel like I'm going to be totally surprised by my first acceptance, because I just don't think the idea of rolling admissions has really hit me yet.
