I love when we have so many members who are getting their interviews at the same time - it feels like a party when person after person reports back in with an 'approved'! Good luck, everyone - I'm sure you'll do fine!

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

I'm still not nervous... I wonder why? I don't get nervous very often though, so maybe I won't! I always THINK I'm going to be nervous, and then in the nerve-inducing situation, I'm actually calm, cool, collected and confident. Let's hope the same thing happens on Friday morning!

I just sent Hotel Dauphin an email, asking whether or not I could extend my check-out time on Friday. I imagine I'm going to want a nap afterwards, since I'll be getting up at the equivalent of 2:30 AM, thanks to my body being on West Coast time...

It's so awesome that they have computers with internet in every room though. That's a MAJOR bonus. If I have time, I'll write up my review right then and there. Unless I'm denied, in which case I might just jump out the window. :lol:
