    Hi Chris! Did you attend Morrison in Taichung?
    By the way, thanks for the encouragement.
    Came at a great time. Especially with decisions coming!

    But just like Vivek said! Please don’t overwork yourself!

    Six words. Can say. A lot.

    And Chris, what on earth are you doing up at this ungodly hour. Its 2:15 AM! We don’t mind waiting a couple of extra days for the decisions! (At least I don’t)

    @Bhaskar – I realised my mistake exactly 4.2 milliseconds after the page loaded after I clicked ‘Post’. I posted a corrigendum in a flash. smile
    @rfong – Aye, I know that. But no harm in berating a college student for a messed up sleep cycle is there? Personally, I’ve got a strict 11PM-5AM thing going for a while now. wink

    Dear Vivek, how about catching on some sleep?

    Thanks, Chris. Though I’m still waiting to hear if I will be admitted to MIT for next fall, this post still means a lot if I don’t get in.
