Everyone always says, “Oh senior year is soooo easy! You get to sleep and do nothing!” My response to that? B.S. Not only do I have absurd amounts of homework, but I have college applications on top of that! I have to fix my essay, possibly construct a portfolio, find scholarships, APPLY to scholarships, and worst of all, choose what colleges I actually want to apply to. Gosh, we’re in high school! How do we know what we want to do with the rest of our lives?! Maybe I want to go into law, maybe education, maybe art, heck, maybe math! I have no IDEA. I’m still just a kid and I don’t know what I want to do. My parents say they support whatever decision I make but I know that my dad wants me to go to his Ivy League alma matter and my mom says I don’t have to go to an Ivy League and then tells me to go look at Cornell! I don’t mean to sound like I’m whining or complaining; I really just need an outlet to get out all of this stress. And so far so good.
Oh and on top of all of that, I’m sick. Lucky me, eh?
