At around noon, I received an e-mail from Clemson that said, among other things, "You have what it takes to be a Tiger, and we hope you’ll choose Clemson." This didn't really make sense to me since I hadn't received an offer yet. In addition, it included a link to submit my deposit. This was somewhat amusing and somewhat frustrating. Either they had accepted me and I just hadn't been notified, or they had sent the e-mail in error. I even checked a couple hours later to see if they sent one of those "oops, this wasn't meant for you" e-mails.
The mail always comes at around 2:30 or so. I was outside doing my gardening when the mail finally arrived at 3:45. I finished cleaning up and checked the mail, and inside was a big packet from Clemson. That could only mean one thing... ;) I've been accepted! WOOT!
I'm a natural worrier, so even though it may have been ridiculous, I was kind of worried that they wouldn't accept me. Although Drexel accepted fewer students than Clemson, Drexel is ranked #86 and Clemson is ranked #64. So anyway, I'm relieved to have been accepted. :)

"You have what it takes to be a Tiger"?? Why didn't they just say, "You're Grrrrrrreat!" Lol.
Oh, and congrats...but I already said that over email:)
You're like a retired old granny by the way. Outside gardening at 2:30 in the afternoon? Jerk.
Dude, 3 comments? Spit it out!
I'm making food! Not flowers. That's not granny. Besides, I make up for it by working at night or on the weekends or something.
Don't forget to add that you're officially on in-state tuition as well :)
