And... Submit!

Dearest Darling Readers,
Salvete! Happy Halloween!

How fitting-- the traditionally scariest day of the year is the day that I finally complete my early college applications.
These applications have been hanging over my head for months-- I faced some difficultly not writing the apps themselves, but actually bringing myself to write them. I strongly dislike the unknown-- this 1.5 month waiting period may kill me.

But finally, as I sat here listening to the incredibly talented Michael Giacchino's LOST and Star Trek scores,-- after a few attempts, realizing that some schools let you send the common app before payment and others did not-- I have released my request to attend four colleges.

If I get into a certain one of the four, they are the only applications I needed to send. If not, the process repeats, only it is multiplied almost 3x.

I just want to get into college... is that too much to ask?

Through the entire college process, I started to regret doing some things I did-- thinking, if only I had worked harder in this class, I would have a higher GPA and would have a much better shot of getting into x college.

But alas, (earwax!) it is too late. We shall see. And I'll be sitting over there in the corner until the fateful December 15 comes around, when my heart might actually beat out of my chest.

I apologize for the probably numerous grammatical errors in this post. I feel like the past few days have been full of nothing but essays.

Also, on the note of Halloween, my current area of the country has been ravaged by a very strange snow storm. Honestly, the prospect of snow completely freaked me out. 12/21/12 anyone? Some nearby towns have actually *cancelled* Halloween. Spooky.

My left eye keeps on twitching. It's really annoying.

Enjoy the holiday, no matter how limited you may be!

Valete,
Geek
