<p>No one tells you how hard it is to be 17. And then they make you wait. Commiserate here.</p>
<p>Anyway, I applied a couple places EA and I figured commiserating directly about our anxieties would be better than another chance thread.</p>
<p>I did a few EA as well.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>I know you feel! I’m sitting here praying my butt off :/</p>
<p>I’m so distracted, burnt out, and checked out. I thought this was supposed to happen after getting in, not submitting</p>
<p>i literally check my app status almost every day for my 7 EA schools
i feel like my senior year won’t start until i find out</p>
<p>Lol. When people hear I’m a senior, they always ask if I’m “excited” about this entire process. o.O </p>
<p>Uh… no, it’s actually extremely nerve-wracking and at times feels pointless. ;P</p>
<p>simultaneously empty and pivotal</p>
<p>Totally. Applied ED to W&M, and i’m very, very stressed. I find myself counting the days.</p>
<p>@MoreAboutNothing I visited there last weekend. Absolutely loved it! Good luck!</p>
<p>Thanks! It’s totally gorgeous, right? I visited in mid-September after being obsesses with Davidson all of junior year and totally fell in love. And at least their results come pretty early. I’d hate to be waiting 'till the 23rd of December like some of my friends are.</p>
<p>“Senior year best year evahhhhh” Seriously?! This year has been the most stressful year of my life :(</p>
<p>tell me about it. my life feels like a slow-moving train wreck without even touching on my admissions anxiety</p>
<p>unenlightened, I know what you mean. This year is not fun. The fun will start when I graduate. </p>
<p>December can not come fast enough for my EA decisions >.<</p>
<p>How are you all coping? I know I should be out going about business as usual and trying to have some fun, but my personal life is not going well right now and
I’m in a serious funk.</p>
<p>I’m just living and doing what a senior must do. My course load is crazy this year, i’m drowning in it, college apps are like an extra course, it’s crazy.</p>
<p>I’m just tired -______-</p>
<p>But I hope that you get out of your “funk”.</p>
<p>
All. The. Time.</p>
<p>I have much more work this year than I expected. :(</p>
<p>And hearing/seeing so many of my peers getting acceptances already stresses me out even more and gives me more anxiety.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I’m also waiting on my decisions too. One for EA and one priority; here’s hoping for a non-ruined holidays :)!</p>
<p>P.S. There’s no use in being so nervous, after submitting your application it’s out of your hands to control if you’re accepted or not; just stay positive, I’m sure you’ll all get in!</p>
<p>Re: Being tired</p>
<p>This is actually my life. Every single day/lesson is a struggle against my heavy eyelids to keep my eyes open. And I have to keep maintaining high grades in case ED falls through… so exhausted :(</p>
