[warm solstice]

[austere pendant]

[warm solstice]

👍

[sand star]

I cant squeeze more parts of my life and turn it into something rlly cool for apps

[austere pendant]

eeeeeeeeh

[plain coral]

Yall how am i goingto get rejected from gatech and nyu and use the same format of essay in my why cornell
Like autoreject cornell moment

😭😭

[warm solstice]

looking at people who got in i think i wasnt gonna make it either ways the essay was generic

[sand star]

Insider power works hopefully

[plain coral]

Like ipps

[plain chasm]

g o o d l u c k

[warm solstice]

yale so cute

[fierce rivet]

My only good sups were UofT CS and Cornell (maybe Yale a lil bit)

[warm solstice]

colombia

[fierce rivet]

❤️

[plain coral]

My best was duke

[sand star]

I think my best is cornell

[warm solstice]

go iitb no you love that place sm

[plain coral]

Then brown

[plain chasm]

my best weee cornell

[plain coral]

Then cornell

[plain chasm]

but i submitted a month late

[plain coral]

Or yale

[plain chasm]

so

[fierce rivet]

Nope it is just a backup

[fierce rivet]

🫡

[warm solstice]

ill send you pics of iitb then youll start hating it

[austere pendant]

i liked my cornell and nw essays

[fierce rivet]

I don't even remember what my Duke supp was

[austere pendant]

the most

i think the ending to my cornell engineering essay

was nice

was a cute ending

[warm solstice]

cornell essays were yum

[fierce rivet]

Well no one likes their backup very much tbh

[austere pendant]

what we saying about getting to cornell w a 1460

lol

[plain coral]

I liked my second coe essay but idk if it was too generic

[warm solstice]

i wanna ss your texts and show it to the failed jee friend so bad lmfaooo

[austere pendant]

diversity or

the solving problems one

[plain coral]

My first coe essay was rejected by nyu and gatech so idfk anymore

[austere pendant]

apparently the committee likes the diversity ones more

[fierce rivet]

But UofT is a lil expensive without Pearson Scholarship (Hoping that pulls off)

[plain coral]

Solving problems

[fierce rivet]

No don't plz

[sand star]

Whats the 25% sat percentile in cornell?

[plain coral]

My diversity draft was too similar to my why cornell

[austere pendant]

fair enough

[plain coral]

Hopefully it has enough of an impact

[warm solstice]

he got 57 and i laughed on his face 💀

[fierce rivet]

💔

Wait ig I doxed myself by reveling my city

Ff

[warm solstice]

like bro you had two years to prep for 1 exam

[austere pendant]

does anyone have

[warm solstice]

you did

[austere pendant]

idea of spring intakes

[rustic coral]

someone used chatgpt to write washu essay and got in 🤦

[fierce rivet]

You won't know but maybe @indigo moat can figure out

[plain chasm]

so true and real

will be me

[warm solstice]

why cant i

and whycan he

[plain coral]

I hate that i applied coe

[fierce rivet]

That exam and college is overrated

[plain coral]

I shouldve done humec

[plain chasm]

i would do cornell guaranteed transfer

[warm solstice]

FINALLY

[rustic coral]

cornell loves women in stem

[plain coral]

I shouldve done humec

[fierce rivet]

Cause he has some other info too

[warm solstice]

ME A WOMAN IN STEM

[plain coral]

Hopefully it helps

[warm solstice]

hmm okii

[plain coral]

But coe doesnt do transfer

Guaranteed

So im sad

[plain chasm]

does CAS?

[rustic coral]

i should’ve done cals

[plain chasm]

or only CALS

[plain coral]

I know cals and humec do

[plain chasm]

nooooo

[fierce rivet]

COE ❤️

[plain chasm]

i hope CAS does

[plain coral]

Google it

For cas

[sand star]

Is humec selective?

[plain chasm]

yayyyyyyy

[plain coral]

Less than cas and coe

[sand star]

🙏

[plain coral]

Only kids w special hooks have gotten in from my hs but my stats r higher than everyone whos applied from my hs in the recent past

So

[warm solstice]

does being a woman in stem help with the chances

or is itjust mid

[plain chasm]

same

[plain coral]

To humec

[plain chasm]

if youre domestic

[rustic coral]

is it only for ny residents??

[sand star]

Special hooks such as?

[warm solstice]

int 😎

[plain coral]

No

[plain chasm]

i dont think so

[rustic coral]

YAY

[plain coral]

Legacy, athlete recruit, fgli

[sand star]

Bruh 😭

[rustic coral]

fgli better come through

[sand star]

I aint fgli

Got no special hooks

😭

Goodbye

[rustic coral]

underrepresented state?

[sand star]

Im intl

[rustic coral]

oo

[plain coral]

Im probably transferring into humec from coe anyways

So im just mad at myself

💀

[rustic coral]

did u get interview

[rustic coral]

that’s such a flex

[sand star]

Humec doesnt offer interviews?

[plain chasm]

cornell doesnt have interviews

[plain coral]

Neither did coe but i got one

[plain chasm]

i didnt get an i nfo session

[plain coral]

Theyre nonevaluative

[rustic coral]

i got interview

[sand star]

Thats a damn sign

[plain coral]

I loved my interviewer woman

[plain chasm]

no it isnt

lol

[plain coral]

She was so nice

[sand star]

U applied humec?

[plain chasm]

theyre nonevaluative

[rustic coral]

cas

[plain chasm]

and availability based

[rustic coral]

but it doesn’t rlly matter

[sand star]

Oh

Cas does interviews

[plain chasm]

No

info sessions

[plain coral]

Yeah my meeting was on zoom cuz they notified me a full month late but she lived near me

[plain chasm]

theyre nonevaluative

[sand star]

But to my knowing the humec website says they dont offer interviewd

[sand star]

My friend who did ed didnt get in tho. He applied CAS and got interviewed

[plain coral]

Only architecture does interviews

Everything else is info sesh

[rustic coral]

woah

[plain coral]

cO-chair

[rustic coral]

insane

[sand star]

HAHAHHA

[fierce rivet]

🫡

[rustic coral]

cornell 27 insta got some attractive ppl i wont lie

[plain coral]

I asked her abt transfers

And she said coe is hardest college to get into

[sand star]

Is transferring easy for humec?

[plain coral]

So internal transfer should be fine

[fierce rivet]

💀

[rustic coral]

😭

[plain coral]

Into or out of

[sand star]

Out of

Humec -> cas

[rustic coral]

is this for undergrad applicants

like first yr not transfer

[plain coral]

The thing is youd need to have all ur pre reqs done for the major ur swapping into

[sand star]

Mm

[plain coral]

Yeah

Im undergrade firstyear

Was asking abt internal transfer

[rustic coral]

i thought dyson was hardest

[plain coral]

Inc ase i hate engineering

[sand star]

If i got all the prereqs done then transferring should be no problem?

[plain coral]

Essentially yeah

[sand star]

Ah ok

[plain coral]

Just keep in contact with an advisor from the start

[sand star]

But i dont think i’ll get into cornell

Lmaoo

[plain coral]

State intention to transfer esrly onnso ur in consideration or smth

The hardest transfer to do is cas cs to coe cs

[hallow sierra]

[lofty meadow]

i really hope this happens

last year our school got 23% of our applicants in

i feel that i've got the grades, sat score, activities, etc.

this is the one ivy i feel could actually happen

i'm going to need all the luck i can get though, send me your energy

[plain coral]

Yeah 15 kids of 95 went to cornell last year

💀

If i am not one of this years 15

[plain chasm]

what in the feeder

[plain coral]

I swear

[lofty meadow]

95 kids applied or there were 95 in '22

[plain coral]

Class of 95

Students

[plain chasm]

did all apply

[lofty meadow]

damn

[plain coral]

Probably not

[rustic coral]

HUH

[plain coral]

Over the past like 5-6 years our acceptance to cornell has averaged 39% of ppl who applied get in

[rustic coral]

we have 91 kids and only 2 applied this yr

watch us both get rejected

[rustic coral]

are u in ny?

omg r u the one who’s dad is a cornell prof💀

[plain chasm]

real talk how did your parents find out about all of these colleges

for my mom she went to cc late because she immigrated and then my dad’s only option was cc then the nearby state school

[lofty meadow]

cornell is not a hard one to find tbh

[plain chasm]

i didn’t know cornell existed until this year other than their notes style

[plain coral]

Yes to both lmao

[plain chasm]

but that’s probably just because i was slow

[earnest bloom]

!cornell

[lofty meadow]

ivies are some of the most well-known schools in the u.s.

[rustic coral]

in the world

[lofty meadow]

yeah

which is why i am a bit confused that you never heard of cornell until not too long ago

[plain chasm]

idk i wasn’t aware of college stuff until junior year

[topaz aurora]

a lot of people outside the us have never heard of the ivies outside harvard 🤷‍♀️

i didn’t even know that much about the ivies until gr11

[plain chasm]

i’m domestic

but all i really knew about were my state school and harvard

covid education was bad

[lofty meadow]

Idk my grandma went to Cornell and my family has always been invested in education

[plain chasm]

before that in middle school i wasn’t ever in avid because my teacher said i was too smart for it

but i feel like avid helped a lot of people

[lofty meadow]

I suppose I likewise didn’t know Dartmouth was an ivy until not that long ago

[plain chasm]

i’m in the same situation as lot of people here but most of the supports here are only for first gen

and i was never offered any of that

lapse on my part for not exploring the opportunities on my own

my parents didn’t even want to fill out FA because they thought we were too rich to qualify (we are not, we get almost full aid) and were set on me taking out stupid amounts in loans

we’ll see what happens tmr but i’m not hopeful

[rustic coral]

the college process is not on middle class side

[plain chasm]

my parents are 80k in debt aside from mortgage

i can’t pile them with more loans

so we’ll see what happens

[sand star]

lol

[rustic coral]

u should try

[sand star]

i cant login

lol

[warm solstice]

jai mata di

[jagged canyon]

what’s their admitted student network

oh

i’m not going to disappoint myself 💀💀

ignorance is bliss

[sand star]

cc says it doesnt mean anything tho

[plain chasm]

do they even have decisions in the portal yet

[rustic coral]

i can’t physically wait another day

[tough pebble]

no, they use netIDs assigned to admitted students, not emails

[sand star]

ah

i see

ok

[austere pendant]

not the right thread homeboy

yall i need some bomb ass portal astrology 🙏

[rare kettle]

Are you posting this everyone? International admissions are hard. That’s kinda all there is to say.

[rustic coral]

frrr lmk if u find some

[tall hare]

ithaca is like 4 hours away from nyc

sheesh

suny ithaca

[marsh musk]

Ye

How far by like

Train

[hollow swift]

did cornell send the official decision time email yet

[tough magnet]

nah they aren't ig

[lofty meadow]

7:00 no?

[placid ember]

they still care abt it??

[hallow sierra]

[wraith reef]

I think it’s 7 for all ivies

Could be wrong

[round venture]

My high school has almost 45% acceptance rate to cornell

[austere pendant]

this makes me hate being an international even more

[thick abyss]

I’m back from work

Any updates guys?

[round venture]

about 40-60 get in each year with 120+ applications

well only the upperclassmen applied so

[thick abyss]

They do live in Ithaca lmao

[tawny prism]

needed this 💔

[round venture]

It's still very selective.Our high school usually has people that go to every ivy each year

there's about 370 seniors

only 120 applied to cornell

[austere pendant]

our school has had 1 ivy acceptance this year

from the ED cycle

w a LOT applying ed

that 1 was a full pay to cornell

[round venture]

full pay, or full ride?

[austere pendant]

he was a full pay kid

[round venture]

ah

Cornell is need blind

[austere pendant]

yeaps

[round venture]

that doesn't marrer

[austere pendant]

not for int

[round venture]

matte

oh international

[austere pendant]

need aware for ints

yep

you'll see him next year

that's so weird

[round venture]

Mr. Rich

[austere pendant]

right now we all could be talking to our classmates

[austere pendant]

honestly he got screwed over

at the time of EDing he could afford it

but our currency devalued so quickly after january

it is extremely difficult to

afford it now

[round venture]

Is it that drastic?

[austere pendant]

yes

it really is

this is j over the last year

you can see the huge spike downwards after jan

[round venture]

wow

[marsh musk]

He can probably tell them about it then

They might change his package or somethin like that

[austere pendant]

he didn't apply for aid

[thick abyss]

.0035?

[round venture]

It's like a 20-30 % change in currency

[thick abyss]

May I ask why it’s so low to begin with

[austere pendant]

welcome to southeast asia

lol

[thick abyss]

Ohhh Japanese deflation?

[austere pendant]

we've been in a political and economic crisis for the past couple years

[marsh musk]

How’d it drop so significantly

[austere pendant]

we had a huuuuuge flooding here

[marsh musk]

any expectations for it to rise again ?

[austere pendant]

which fucked agriculture (our biggest export)

so our imports > exports

[thick abyss]

Natural or partially a result of human actions?

[austere pendant]

then on top of that, we'd been requesting an imf loan for a long long time

[austere pendant]

i guess you can say climate change? monsoon season has never been this bad here

[austere pendant]

and the gov had been capping the usd exchange rate for a long time, and the imf asked them to uncap it to take a loan out

so once they uncapped it

[round venture]

shouldn't influence your friend too much. If he can pay all 4 years. the 20-30% change might still be able to pay his first three year

[austere pendant]

huge devaluation

[round venture]

I'm sure it can get better soon

[austere pendant]

projected to get worse now

unless we gain political stability

[marsh musk]

What’s ur friend majoring in

[austere pendant]

which is highly unlikely

he's in coe

not sure what exactly he's majoring in

[marsh musk]

hm

What country it u don’t mine me askin

[austere pendant]

pakistan

[marsh musk]

I c

[austere pendant]

indeed

[marsh musk]

damn

that sucks man

[austere pendant]

just a perk of living here

i had to move back from london bec of this

lol

otherwise i'd be chilling in any of the UK unis paying 9k a year

[marsh musk]

Why move back

For family c

[austere pendant]

[round venture]

Cornell is my top 1 choice

[plain coral]

😭

[austere pendant]

[zealous field]

They loved my Loci

[vernal raven]

[plain coral]

😭

or keep it in the family so autoaccept

[zealous field]

i hope 🤞

[round venture]

legacy only works in ED round

[spare obsidian]

false

its a bigger boost ed tho

[grim valve]

Cornell does sibling legacy?

[spare obsidian]

a little over 24 hours before i find out if mit is the only school with an acceptance rate<60% that doesnt hate me

[round venture]

In my school, only two people got Cornell likies

[spare obsidian]

in my school no one has gotten a likely from anywhere in atleast 3 years

[vernal raven]

even one likely in a school is crazy lmfao

[austere pendant]

homegirl said only

only

[marsh musk]

no one has ever gotten a likely at my school

Lmfao

[round venture]

they probably didn't tell you

the counselor wouldn't know because it's through email

[marsh musk]

u talkin to me

[round venture]

my friend who got likely only told me and his close friend

some people don't like to share

[marsh musk]

Oh nah

Like

No one applies to ivys from my schoolb

[austere pendant]

why do i feel positive about cornell

[marsh musk]

only one guy in the past like15 years has gotten in

[austere pendant]

when i've been rejected by every other t20

[marsh musk]

and he got into all of them

and everyone knew about it

[marsh musk]

Cause corn

[austere pendant]

i hate feeling positive i wish i felt like it was a rejection alr

[austere pendant]

corn

[marsh musk]

I’m debating if I should open my decisions while I’m out

on my phone

or if I should wait the 2 hours and open it at home

[austere pendant]

p sure they look at you in regards to your context

i.e did you take the most rigorous course at YOUR school

[spare obsidian]

they do both

[austere pendant]

bec they can't compare something like rigor amongst all candidates bec some schools don't have as many opportunities

[spare obsidian]

not just one or the other

[austere pendant]

but SAT and shit

probably is compares to everyone

id assume standardised testing is compared to everyone

but then rigor and stuff is probably just within your own context

[spare obsidian]

im expecting 1 waitlist and 6 rejections tomorrow

[austere pendant]

how come 1 waitlist

[spare obsidian]

idk

a guess

[austere pendant]

do you mind

sharing stats

in dms

[marsh musk]

I’m expecting

2 acceptance

1 wl

[austere pendant]

im baffled to how you aint get any other but MIT

[marsh musk]

5 rejects

[austere pendant]

im expecting 1 r bec thats all

taking my final total to 5 acceptances and 11 rejections this cycle

[marsh musk]

Hoping for a Corn L acceptance

[spare obsidian]

they better accept you for the mini heart attack alone

[wicked saddle]

my guess is they do compare you to other apps to the same school. prob compare u to previous years admits as well.

[austere pendant]

i hope you recorded your mit reaction yoco

[spare obsidian]

even if not originally planned

[spare obsidian]

i wish i did

[marsh musk]

Would they compare you to previous years?

I think only one person has ever applied and gotten in from my school

Almost identical stats to myself

[wicked saddle]

Im sure they do just to gauge context

[spare obsidian]

i opened it on the train with some friends otw to a broadway show because i was expecting a guarenteed rejection

[marsh musk]

Idk if ima have enough self control to open it 2 hr later

[spare obsidian]

i doubt they require ir

[marsh musk]

but at the same time ima be out so If I get rejected everywhere then 😐

[spare obsidian]

its prob a fun tradition for that counselor specifically

[wicked saddle]

[plain coral]

[pine granite]

I alr put rejected on my schools navigation tracker

[wary slate]

😭

i’ve always wanted to put accepted to something crazy like stanford just to mess with people and give them false hope

[sudden cipher]

i just like the congratulations posts of colleges i didn’t apply to on instagram to mess with people

[calm wyvern]

evil

[wary slate]

ive seen people follow the class of 2027 pages to schools they didn’t get into

[tough patio]

bro

24 hrs

[wary slate]

!cornell

oh

[sudden cipher]

that’s so embarrassing 😭 i’ve seen people post on those before decisions even came out

[tough patio]

It’s tmr at 7pm east

[wary slate]

no literally it’s so annoying “i hope to get in to major in biology”

or when they post on the page and say “it’s currently one of my top choices, but i’m not fully committed”

[sudden cipher]

umiami pages were crazy back in october/november, it’s so annoying

[wary slate]

does anyone know the defer to accepted cornell rate

[sudden cipher]

yeah, i mean i get it if ur between 2, but there’s no point in posting unless you have all ur decisions

[hot bone]

I have work tmr when Cornell comes out

[rare kettle]

Congrats on Emory 🙂

[thick abyss]

STOP

[thick abyss]

Thx!!!

Actually so relived and shocked

[rare kettle]

You deserved it

I'm gonna have trouble sleeping tonight 😳

[sweet gale]

my cornell essay was dogshit about a major i didnt have any shown interest in and i submitted february 10th theres no way 🙏

[thick abyss]

Stop you’re so nice

[thick abyss]

Fr

Im spending 6 hrs leading kids around a huge museum tomorrow

[vernal raven]

Me too gang

My essay started off strong

[thick abyss]

At least cornell will be least of my worries

[vernal raven]

Then turned to dookie

[rare kettle]

It feels just like the day before Christmas, but a Christmas where you have to go to the side of your family's that you hate.

[wicked saddle]

Wait Riley did you get into emory

[vernal raven]

Im muslim

[rare kettle]

Oh. I'm sorry?

[thick abyss]

Oxford campus! Waitlisted at main

Not bad imo

[wicked saddle]

CONGRATULATIONSSSS

[vernal raven]

Beg for my forgiveness

[thick abyss]

THANK YOUUU

my dad is making me write the LOCI tonight tho 😭

My first one I suck arse

[sweet gale]

SAME

[rare kettle]

Nahhh you gotta wait for that lmao

[vernal raven]

Why not start it tn

[sweet gale]

i hope cornell accepts me and then they send me an acceptance package but instead of an acceptance package it’s a pipe bomb

[thick abyss]

THANK U

Is submitting Saturday too late

I wanna see my other decisions first

[vernal raven]

No 😭

[rare kettle]

Because it isn't even genuine. "I'm really interested in your school" as you hope you get into an Ivy...

[rare kettle]

Nah

[thick abyss]

I have all of my ideas

[wicked saddle]

How is 3/34 a date

[thick abyss]

But I just wanna be happy tonight

[vernal raven]

U can probably wait until the waitlist response dradline

Deadline**

[rare kettle]

Haha yeah

[thick abyss]

Nah the 15th is too far away

I submitted the form and emailed my counselor

I think I’ll write it on Saturday if cornell and Duke fail

But holding out hope for cornell

[vernal raven]

No im just saying u can like wait that long to submit the loci without worrying bc they wont review waitlist until then

[rare kettle]

Dook!

[vernal raven]

:/

[rare kettle]

Wait I can't tell if you're being serious

[vernal raven]

No im just trolling lmao

[thick abyss]

@rare kettle ur getting Cornell

U better

[rare kettle]

Okay I was like "Man I hate people who interject like this."

[rare kettle]

I HOPE

What order are you opening Ivies in? If you applied to more than 1...

Did you do 6 like me?

[thick abyss]

I did cornell

Im loyal

[wicked saddle]

i was just talking to my parents ab this

[thick abyss]

But do least to most chance imo

[rare kettle]

I'm loyal too but I also recognize that I'm not cracked or shit-lucky so I applied too tons to give myself a higher chance 😆

[rare kettle]

Oh I was going to do least to most appeal

[vernal raven]

What ivies did u not apply to

[rare kettle]

So, UPenn, Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Yale, Harvard

[vernal raven]

Im guessing dartmouth and columbia

[rare kettle]

Princeton

I didn't want to do their essays

And Dartmouth yeah

[vernal raven]

Oh yea my friend told me princeton had a lot

[rare kettle]

IDK PRINCETON, I DON'T HAVE A SONG ON MY PLAYLIST THAT DESCRIBES MY LIFE YOU MOTHERFU-

[vernal raven]

I guessed columbia bc its so diff from cornell

[thick abyss]

Do u wanna end on a bad note tho

Idk yale and Harvard r the hardest imo

[rare kettle]

🤔 Shit true

Here's my thing Riley

[thick abyss]

Go on baguette boy

[rare kettle]

It can't possibly be a bad note if I get into any one of them

[thick abyss]

TRUE

[rare kettle]

I will be jumping around

And I'll be at my bowling league so I can just bowl it off

Harvard's a bum ass school, they don't even have a bowling team

(I don't think)

[rare kettle]

That's fair, I do kinda wish I applied to Princeton. I just didn't vibe with it for whatever reason. The essays were whack, I was burnt out, the online webinar was boring as hell, and the location of the campus seemed kinda shitty.

[plain coral]

Do u prefer oxford or emory

[rare kettle]

I really really hope I can get into one. I'm feeling confident that I can get into one Ivy or Duke, so I hope that doesn't get shattered 🥺

[thick abyss]

Emory is better positioned for business

Besides that I love Oxford

Hbu

I have delusional hope for cornell man

[plain coral]

Ah i only got oxford but tbh i prefer it

[thick abyss]

Honestly I think I do too?

Just worried abt business placement

[rare kettle]

Wait they have a campus in Oxford? Like Oxford Oxford?

[plain coral]

99% of classes lesd than 30 students

Like

[plain coral]

Its in georgia

[thick abyss]

And tons of leadership and community engagement

[plain coral]

Its called oxford

[rare kettle]

Yeah I feel that but be confident. It's better to be let down than to let yourself down.

[rare kettle]

Oh 🗿

[thick abyss]

Yeah it’s weird man

What major r u doing?

[wicked saddle]

I wish I wrote my emory supps better instead of rushing for scholars program 😭

[rare kettle]

I felt really good about all my supps but that was at the expense of my entire Christmas break. I literally had half a day off and that was only because my mom forced me to see my family on Christmas day.

[plain coral]

Idk yet but im considering the dual degree engineering program

rn im kinda looking at like
major in neuro behaviorial bio/human health/psych
minor in ethics/predictive health

[thick abyss]

SICKKK

[plain coral]

Pre med go brr

[thick abyss]

Location doesn’t matter then at all

[plain coral]

Yeah

[thick abyss]

Im just worried abt business recruiting

[plain coral]

Valid

[thick abyss]

Cause like they probably target Atlanta a lot more

But I’m gonna go to the admitted students webinar on Saturday

And ask my friend who did the Oxford to business thint

[plain coral]

That sounds like a good plan

[thick abyss]

I decided to apply to cornell bc a gas leak ruined my vacation

[plain coral]

I also got sprinng admit

💀

[thick abyss]

So thanks ruined vacay!

[rare kettle]

Wtf...

[thick abyss]

Honestly not the worst thing

[plain coral]

Which idrm since i graduate at the same time as everyone else

Its just annoying cuz my roommate would alrdy have been there for five months

[thick abyss]

I just don’t get what the point of spring admit is

Bc all the kids need housing

[rare kettle]

Maybe limited resources for the incoming freshmen? Not to mention that at least some people drop out by then.

[thick abyss]

I don’t think not gaurenteed means that they don’t try to place y’all together

[plain coral]

Like my social anxiety gonna spike needing to force myself into alrdy established friend groups

[thick abyss]

If we both end up going, you’re hanging with my friends

[plain coral]

Its gonna be hs all over again
