If you’ve looked at my Twitter and Instagram feeds lately, read the blog in the past couple weeks, or even talked to me in the past two months, then you know that I’m currently in the middle of the college application process. The college process is seriously unlike anything else. When people say senior year is hard “in a different way,” they’re not kidding. I never knew what they meant by that until I actually went through it all. Last week I submitted my first round of applications and I think I’m finally experienced enough to shed some light on the process for all of you. As hard as it is to juggle everything in your life during the five months that comprise first semester of senior year, you learn some very valuable life lessons from it all.
Time Management is a serious thing. I always thought I was so good at managing my time until senior year rolled around. Turns out, I had no idea what managing time even meant until this year. Juggling homework, SAT prep, filling out college apps, college essay writing, blogging, and my extracurriculars has been quite the trip, let me just tell you!
