Uggggh everything is so hard
Feb. 20th, 2022 04:58 pmI keep getting overwhelmed while applying to college. It's just so much and nothing feels like it's functioning. It took me months to finish what I thought was my application, but I don't think it was? And I was told I would get a Welcome e-mail, but I never did and now I can't move forward. And the dumb website keeps telling me my password and username is incompatible but then they use my username when trying to recover my account— so they obviously know it's me! It's so frustrating. I feel like Sisyphus.
And figuring out the student financial aid is a whole other beast I don't understand. I don't think high school prepared me for this, which is ironic since that felt like the entire purpose at my school. Is this supposed to be easy? How does anyone go to college when it's this difficult to apply?
Everything is too much. I need a break so I'm going to re-watch the Harry Potter movies. At least that won't be complicated or unfamiliar. I'm just wondering how I'm supposed to function in college when I can't even handle the application process. Maybe this is the hardest part and it gets easier after this?
