<p>I sent my application in today, now Im scared that I could have done things better, ugh! And now i get to start on scholarship essays, which are harder, does the vicious cycle ever end! I cant wait til april. Sorry this thread is kinda pointless.... I was just bored, and procrastinating, and wondering if anyone wants to chat...</p>
<p>I feel ya man. I finished sunday.</p>
<p>"ya man" makes me think of jamaica, lol
I really need to work on my essay instead of clickin around CC</p>
<p>I'm finishing up my application now...</p>
<p>have fun,if ure finishing now, then y are u chatting, get back to work! (advice to myself)</p>
<p>I finished everything this morning, and then I went to Staples to make copies of everything. It cost something like 20 dollars for 5 applications (Brown took up a quarter of the pages). Then I went home, read everything over, and dropped everything off at the post office. That cost 20 dollars, too. Why am I telling you guys what everything cost? I'm becoming my mom...;)
Anyway, I felt so weird walking home from the post office. Now that everything's out, I feel so helpless, but it's good to have gotten everything over with. :)</p>
<p>KountingSheep987, what kind of scholarships are you applying for? Any ideas for a scholarship for someone who doesn't do anything really special?</p>
<p>I just sent mine in :) I agree, it is so relieving to get these applications done. Only two more left to go!</p>
<p>well right now im applying for one at Upitt (where i dont wanna go) but im also applying for a society of plastics engineers one but thats cuz i wanna majo rin chemical engineering, maybe one cuz im jewish, and a women in engineering one

<p>I finished my app :).</p>
<p>I gotta do one more but I really can't muster up the motivation to start the essays, lol.</p>
<p>Done with everything except for that stupid "Why Penn" essay!
I don't even care that my essays suck anymore...</p>
<p>ive got a closing paragraph left on the crappiest essay of all time
ill edit in the morning and send it in, who cares a bout UPitt...</p>
<p>haha hao, i'm stuck on that exact same essay. Mine is gonna be so crappy and generic.</p>
<p>i dont really understand how there supposed to understand who the applicant si with this question its like "some guy ( i dont remeber who) once said people should act like citizens of the world, not beings of an hour or inhabitants of a village, what are some qualities of a citizen of the world is it a universities responsibility to make ppl citizens of hte world and what are dangers of being one" i think ive said citizen of the world like 50 times in m essay, and itsux and ive got about 688 word s out of 750,a nd a headache...</p>
<p>haha, use the word 'denizen' instead, it's so much cooler</p>
<p>lol yea it is</p>
<p>glad to know I'm not the only one putting off writing that essay. I went to the penn forum to see if people were having the same problem. this one thread was filled with posts like, "If you can't write this essay, then maybe you should reconsider your decision to apply to penn!!!"</p>
<p>good im never gonna finish this last paragraph, i cant look at it anymore</p>
<p>btw, where do you go to school in MD? I know some people in Rockville.</p>
