How did you hear? (eg letter/phone/owl): Letter
How do you feel? Amazed, simply amazed. I'd built up so much tension about it that when I finally read the letter I let out everything in a weird sort of shriek/shout that confused everyone in my house :3 So pleased!

How do you feel: really disappointed, mostly because a friend did get an offer (different college and subject though), who consistently gets a lot lower marks and spent a lot less time on his application and test. It came as a real big surpsise he did get an offer and made things a lot worse for me.... :s-smilie:
