The rest of the message was fine, obviously.其余的信息是好的，很明显。 Little bit cheeky there, I don’t see why I should be made to feel so bad that I’m not applying to the有点厚颜无耻的存在，我不明白为什么我要作出感到如此恶劣 ，我不会运用到 University of Chicago 芝加哥大学 . 。 My good friend Meredith Spoto ‘07 will be going there next year, though, so I guess I can’t stay too angry.我的好朋友伟迪斯波托07年将持续存在明年，虽然，所以，我猜，我不能停留太气愤。 I have lots of fondness for the place, they didn’t need to twist a dagger in my heart about my not applying, though.我有很多好地方，他们没有必要捻一把匕首在我心中对我的不申请，虽然。

This message reminds me of another question I always have: I wish there were a better way to notify schools of a noninterest.此消息使我想起了另外一个问题我一直有：首先，我想有更好的方式来通知学校的一个非利息。 Unless it is no expense or trouble to them to maintain files like this, I expect they would appreciate it too… maybe some sort of ‘common app kill switch’ which would inform them all that you no longer were considering their school.除非它是没有任何费用或麻烦，他们要保持档案喜欢这个，我预期他们将会非常感激太…也许某种'共同的亚洲浆纸杀开关' ，其中将通知他们的一切，你也不再考虑他们的学校。 Was there such a general purpose notification to solve Early Decision confusions?有这样一个通用的通知，以解决早日作出决定的困惑？ I guess this is a pipe-dream for the future of 100% digital admissions.我猜想这是一个管梦想，为未来的百分之一百数码招生。 Oh well…哦，好…
