8:55...let day 14 of obsessive email checking and mail delivery begin in t-minus 5 minutes.
I got a notification in my email that I had a package downstairs. I started screaming to my bf..."THIS COULD BE IT!!!!!!!!!!"
I then proceeded to SPRINT down the dorm hallway to get to the elevator, danced like I hadda pee while I was in there, power-walked to the mailroom, opened my mailbox combo (my hands are shaking and my heart is beating a hundred miles an hour), I hand them my slip, they get a package................
..........and it's a big brown cardboard contraption holding my last book I needed for school. My bf catches up to me and goes "was it it!??!"
Me..."EPIC. FAIL."
Until then...back to obsessively checking my emails...
Yup, I'm the exact same way. I had to work this morning, and I almost got in trouble for constantly refreshing my e-mail. I'm now sitting in my world geography class, and managed to convince my teacher that I needed to have my laptop out because my existence is based on my getting an e-mail. She finally gave in, so here I sit. I'm jsut glad of this little support group that makes me feel a little less pathetic.
Thanks, Lala! It's hard not to get worked up, I think, because it's such an exciting opportunity. Good luck, to everybody! I hope we all hear back soon.
