Hey guys,

thanks for all the support and help, you are really great! If you haven't heard from schools yet, don't worry that can also mean you are accepted. I just heard some gossip about a physics student who didn't hear from stanford at all so he just assumed he was rejected. In September then he got curious and called them about why so and they just told him "oh, sorry about that. Well, if you want you can come next week and start right away" :-) I don't know if it is true, but people from there told me...

Anyways, rafi, all communications between the universities and me has been via e-mail. Sunxcat, I haven't heard anything from them since the weekend. Do you know how it works with visiting days and international students? I can't believe they would be paying for a flight from Europe. Also, how important is it to attend this meeting? I would really like to meet some people there before the semester starts and everyone is busy with work but it is a 15 hour flight and a 9 hour jetlag...

The funniest thing is that my mother is more excited about going to grad school than me :-) She invited all her neighbours and they got totally drunk on sparkling wine and planning a holiday in california :-)
