college applications are sucking my soul out of my eye sockets. and it's only september.
The problem with having only overachievers as friends is that you constantly feel as if you are slacking off. No, I have not started my college essays yet. No, I have not finished filling out the Common Application yet. And frankly, I have no idea what to tell these people to make them think that I am going to be a wonderful addition to their school. Yes, it is September. If I were at a public school, said list would not at all be a problem and I could enjoy my month by wasting my time cheerleading at football games and gossiping about the popular girls. Applications could wait until a time when I would have time to work on them, like in November before finals crunch time. But I chose to go to Conserve School. I have no free time, so any work on college applications takes place while I am:
A: trying not to fall asleep late at night
B: Brushing my teeth
C: Getting up at Ongodly Hours on weekends before starting my homework.
The saddest part is that my closest friends are shocked by my so-called procrastination. I'll freely admit that I did no college work over the summer. At Conserve School, not starting your applications the week that you get out of your junior year is considered procrastination. Someone help me. Or at least, take a large blunt object, hit me with it, and make sure it blinds me temporarily. Then at least I would be able to write an essay on overcoming adversity.
