I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that numbers don't define
I dreamed adcomms would be forgiving

Thank you for making my day.

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that numbers don't define
I dreamed adcomms would be forgiving

Then I was young and unafraid
Retakes were spent and used and wasted
There were no app fees to be paid
No songs unsung, no wine untasted.

Then the emails come at night
With their messages soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dreams to shame.

(Sorry, couldn't resist. Brilliant idea.)

Let me try one:

Refresh. Refresh.
Decisions must be made.
Refresh. Refresh.
Stop acting so afraaaid.

I know, they'll make, a choice about my fate.

Refresh. Refresh.
You applied much too laaate.

Asha, will say, welcome to YLS!

Refresh. Refresh.
You're Fordham bound at best.

When I get in, you won't see me, checking my status again!

Refresh. Refresh.
Went complete months ago.
Refresh. Refresh.
You'll wait 'till March to knooooow.

Les Miserables is fantastic source material for the ding bar. A+ to all.

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living...

More Le Mis!

Someone should do one to "On My Own." I might even give it a go later.

Dearest UCLA,

I didn't really feel like paying $54,000 a year to either be shot in a drive by in LA, or slowly die an agonizing death due to asphyxiation via smog over the next three years.

Thanks though, your rejection email made me feel like a real asshole for even applying.

You do realize that UCLA is essentially in Beverly Hills, right? It's also about a block from the Playboy Mansion. It's not USC.

dont worry, you're more likely to die of sitting in traffic for too long than getting shot

Dear Berkeley:



It's only fair, after all.

Dearest Yale,

Why?

Sincerely,

Yale,

It's cool. I didn't want to be part of that whole Yale Thing anyways.

[vzapana]

Dear Yale,

I lived in New Haven for four years. Five of my friends got mugged — one by knifepoint, another by gunpoint. You should really leave town. That's all.

Best,

You made me feel better. Thanks, Helix.

Dear Yale,

Cambridge is better than New Haven anyway. Thank you for helping to make deciding on a law school that much easier.

All the best,

I hate navy blue sweaters with "Y" on them. Thanks for keeping me from buying one.
