<p>Is anyone else as amazed as I am at how fast September went by?</p>
<p>How is everyone doing on their applications? Have you sent any in yet?</p>
<p>I have everything organized and just have to finish working on my essays and my activities list. :/</p>
<p>It’ll all move really quickly, until January. Then it’s hurry up and wait!</p>

<p>I should probably ask for recs soon!
It’s already October? Yeeshhhhhhh. I thought I had more time.</p>
<p>Terrible isn’t it? Luckily, I asked for my recs before school even started. Now, all I have to worry about is finishing up my essays. Hopefully that won’t take me too long.</p>
<p>Almost no progress, lol. 
Except studying for SATs and doing other sutff.</p>
<p>:(…</p>
<p>Ack! I need to write my supplemental essay! </p>
<p>Why does everything go by so quickly?!</p>
<p>Time is not moving quickly for me at all. It has been dragging since, like, ninth grade when I first got senioritis… and now it’s just unbearable.</p>
<p>Haha i agree with applicannot. I think October is going to fly though…QB deadlines, my birthday, Halloween (BEST HOLIDAY EVAR). It’s my favorite month by far</p>
<p>Lol, time is going by really quickly. I haven’t sent in any apps, though I finished most of my writing. Waiting on some essay feedback before I send off my early action apps (MIT and Chicago). October will be gone in the blink of an eye. I’m enjoying sr year so far :), but I’d like to finish all of these applications so that my part of the process is over and I can focus on other things.</p>
<p>Ju_liaa: Yes! Halloween is awesome. And October really is one of the best months. </p>
<p>I HATE supplemental essays. They’re a wonderful shot for the college to get to know what you’d bring to them personally, but boy do they get on your nerves sometimes.</p>
<p>I hate October. It is the month with no personality. Nothing happens in October (and I don’t like Halloween). I have finished my University of Pittsburgh application and expect a response in the next few weeks. I am waiting to hear from QuestBridge, in which case I have another grueling deadline to meet (I also have some stuff to do by the 12th, but I need a break; it can wait until Monday!). I also have an overnight experience at the George Washington University, an information night for Rice and Chicago, and a bridal shower. Hopefully October will be like bam, bam, bam. At least I can do NaNoWriMo in November to make it go by more quickly.</p>
<p>@Mare_Crisium- I’m having trouble thinking of a topic. I want to do something light and amusing to counterbalance the seriousness of my common app essay, but I just haven’t found the perfect idea yet. I’m considering conlanging though, since that can be pretty amusing.</p>
