SIGH…

I’m really starting to stress out over all the little things I did wrong when I first submitted my Stanford app, such as putting down “Piano Level 8” instead of “Piano for 6 years” (not that it’d matter either way). As for the all-important essays, I’m starting to tell myself repeatedly that I made many many errors in them, so that I actually have to go back and reread some of them to persuade myself that “Hey, things aren’t so bad!” (except when I read one of my essays and began stressing out over having used the same adjective in 2 successive sentences - something else that probably wouldn’t matter).

When I turned in my app on October 31st I told myself that I can forget about the Stanford app for 6 wks and relax. I was clearly wrong.

Even if it’s a reject, I want to at least find out, try not to cry about it, and move on. And if that is the case, I hope I’ll at least be luckier for HYP.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU

LET’S HOPE WE ALL GET IN :]
