Hi! I’m an international student applying for college at the end of 2019. I want a huge pack of scholarship, but I’ve not achieved a 1520+ SAT and 8+ IELTS, and with a big project this summer and hectic writing, I’m fully booked. The problem is at this damn time, someone who is like a really good fit for me, like a kindred spirit, like has the same kinds of thoughts on things, like makes me smile so much talking to and thinking about him, just entered my life. I don’t intend on us becoming a thing, but we are already so close in such a short time and daily talking is now a habit. I try to limit it to an hour a day, but like my mind is kinda stuck on him. What should I do? It’s so rare and difficult to finally meet someone like him, but at the same time my goal… I balance, but I’m afraid that if I’m too greedy for the best of both world, I’m gonna lose both.
I just want to make sure I am reading this right. So you are a junior trying to get a 1520+ SAT and want to receive a lot of merit money or scholarships plus you have a lot going on. At the same time you have met a great guy that is competing for your time? I think you can have both worlds and not lose both but it takes a lot of balancing and prioritizing. Life is to be enjoyed. If he makes you smile and you enjoy his company grow your new relationship while still checking off the college to dos. Good luck!
