USC Fall 2009

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

I knew it! Since I'm not in yet, there only could be something wrong.

Well, as you guys (Neville, Smell and others) wasn't here at London to drink with me, I went with my wife and got my guaranteed hangover for tomorrow! (yeah, I'm pretty much drunk now!)I'm ok for now, but not sure about tomorrow ! :P

Hey.. What about Jayimees? Did she go to Mexico now we have found her REAL identity?
 
so if I'm assuming correctly. There will be a week of silence from the office because of spring break. Will that help the anxiety a little bit?
 
Yes, for me it will. It's finals week, too...so knowing that no letters should come then will make everything a lot better. Patience, everyone, patience.

As my friends now jokinggly encourage, "No news is good news."
 
Good point about spring break redic! That does make me feel better :)

Oh,and I asked specifically about Screenwriting not production.

The hope is alive...

Is anyone sure that USC faculty has off during spring break? (Not to discourage the potential relief in a week of silence, but I know at my college classes are canceled, but many office workers still have to work.)
 
On an unrelated note (and after looking through older posts in this thread):

STG, how can "you're our only hope" remind you of the Lion King more than Leia's weird repeating hologram message?!
 
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I just memorized Lion King since my little brother watched it at least five times a day when I was growing up. I can still remember most of the opening dialogue. Does anyone remember..."temper, temper, I wouldn't dream of challenging you?" CAUSE I DO!
 
Hey everyone -

WOW... this thread really went HUGE!

Well, I got my 2nd rejection from USC today... they really want to make sure I know I got rejected.

They send 2, one from the film school, and one from the regular school. How fun....

Good luck to everyone still waiting.
 
It would make sense that they send two, because you get two acceptances, but that still sucks.

I'm pretty sure I'm not in Mexico, nor am I a spy...but you never know.
 
thanks sonia! i actually called the cinematic arts office to make sure. they said they could make acceptions, but parents are technically not formally invited. i want my mom to come to try and convince her to let me move out to LA lol so ill be asking if she can come. are you going to the event?
 
"Asante sana, squashed banana.."

I just noticed that Maliz, QueenNicNac, and myself were all registered on March 11, 2009.. and Jayimess was registered on March 11, 2007!

Maybe it's a sign that we'll all get in! (Or we'll all be waitlisted until we make other commitments, then we'll get in.)
 
And I registered on March 10th, 2008!!!

..... and as we all know undergraduate is 1 step below graduate ( 1 day and 1 year)

So maybe it is a sign that we will all get in.....

Yeah!!!
No more mailman checking...he thinks I am nuts anyway.

I can eat and sleep regular.

I can cut down on the coffee and cigarettes.

No more F5 button on my email.

I am so glad that Kylok came up with this epiphany I could spit nickels...

PS KYLOK's post is number 895!
8+9 = 17
17-5 = 12
1+2 = 3

Do you know what 3 is!

The month we all registered!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

LOL

Hey, I'm new here.

I'm waiting for a response from USC/SCA. I applied for Writing.

I read earlier about the waitlisted thing-- what if you need to accept another colleges offer before (by May 1) USC notifies of being bumped from the waitlist?

I may lack some common knowledge, but anyone got anything on that?
 
Hey Sayer, for college admissions in general you'd have to give the other school your deposit to secure your spot before USC tells you, so you'll lose a few hundred bucks or so if you get accepted at USC on the waitlist and want to go there then you'll lose that money, but if you don't get a spot at USC this cycle you'll have your spot at the other school.
