I have tried everything, I even saw old movies like casablanca and one flew over the cuckoo's nest grin, but nothing is working. the mind again slowly drifts back to eras and match. I feel like a guy with BPH who cannot find the loo sticking out tongue

jdgu; i know its easier said than done...but pleeeez be patient; we had a forum member last yr name "uphill"..had lost all hope, but matched in his/her 2nd choice..credential almost identical to yours. blve me u r not the only one checking ur eras inbox..there r lots of us out there doing the same thing and it is undrestandable. imagine if we couldnt share our thoughts and feelings in this forum..so let out some steam and dont give-up hope dr. justdontgiveup!!! good luck
btw; u mind telling us how many prog u applied 4

thanks dayzee, i know i need to be patient and everything but it feels like life is stuck in a pause mode. Just feel like yelling 'Get the ball rolling guys'. More than anything it is the uncertainty of the wait which is getting on my nerves.
btw the amount of programs i applied to is 110.
