Ding as expected

I'm not disappointed. I put my best effort forward and can continue without regrets about any "what ifs" had I not decided to apply.

That Stanny goat didn't eat my app! Oh well, at least the sting of the ding is not as bad when you know it's coming. Thanks to all of you of on this thread for the humor and lighthearted comments. It's a nice reminder not take ourselves too seriously.

Received a nice dingle-berry this morning.

I must say this was the least surprising, and therefore also least painful, dingleberry ever.

Derrick says I cannot come to the cool people party.

Not because I am not cool enough, but because he did the best he could to segregate the cool kids from the not so cool ones.

He also said that he would never tell why I am not cool enough, because he is not sure.

.

in short Ding.

Waiting to hear about round 1 funding for my company today, so hope its not as bad as Stanford results.

Screw Stanny and it's stupid admission process.
They use this as a way to climb up rankings, or else there is nothing great abt it :) :twisted:
Atleat I like to think that way now that I got dinged. :wink:

Good Luck to all the admits and please please go to some other school :roll:

DING!

Similar to someone else said, it was expected and therefor not painful at all. It was definitely a long shot, kind of like trying to walk on to the Miami Heat roster. Or LeBron's hairline coming back.
