stress times 10

dear College,


you, my friend, are stressing me out. big time.
like i havent even started you and you are stressing me out.
im still in high school!! gimme a breaak!! 
seriously though
everything about you is stressing me out.
rooming, where to go, if i will even get in, being poor so i will need a job... 
the list goes on and on
please, can you just be a little bit simpler?
that would be greatly appreciated.

okay so college? sorry i just love blogging about it a lot lately but thats all that has been on my mind!
its stressful. like my essay? seriously?? i cant write to save my life, let alone my college career!! also, i need to be smarter. i try and i try but i just fail. gahh especially at the ACT. also, why cant all the dorms just be one man dorms. that would make my life less stressful. i mean wouldn't it make everyones less stressful?? yeah, i think so. also... cant they make the application process start like at least next semester?! i feel like i am already starting college next MONTH and its not even second semester yet!! ahhh. stress. i also already know i am going to have major withdrawals. okay so there are a lot of things that i will NOT miss about high school but there is also a whole bunch i will miss sooo so much. i cant handle it. i am getting depressed thinking about it. i need ice cream. 
now.
ha, i have a feeling i will definitely be gaining that freshman 15 :) hahah...

ok. this was my life story when i was a senior. the college application process was my scariest moment of my life. So you wanna know what i did? i most definitely prayed about it. So you wanna know what i did after that? i thought.... i need to research all this stuff about college, because i really wasn't completely what i was supposed to do about life. so i went to the career center and i stressed about whether i should go to byu or asu or nau or what. so i prayed more. and i saw that at asu i could live at home, and could possibly get a scholarship, and i worked super hard to get good grades first semester, and i got a scholarship. I just felt like i should go to asu! don't ask me why. So just get good grades. I think you have to ask yourself if you're happy where you're at... because seriously, i miss everyone at byu sooo bad, but i LOVE being here, I love going to school for free, and i love what i'm majoring in!! (oh ya, about that... just do what you like. whatever you're good at, or whatever interests you). So what you need to do is 1. PRAY, 2. get good grades, but don't stress. like really- that will kill you!!!! 3. Go to the career center and apply for scholarships! like legit! it's not even nerdy to go to the career center, so do it.
There's my story. hehe i love you

ASU scholarship...thousands of dollars.

free home-cooking...thousands of dollars and good-tasting enjoyment.

free room/bed/etc...thousands of dollars.

freedom...PRICELESS.

BYU = freedom. Freedom = priceless. Thus, BYU is the correct choice. I'm looking forward to seeing you up here.

college is sooo stressful! but, i would DEFINATELY go to utah or idaho! i would die staying home! it's not so bad once you get up here it's the starting to come up here and preparing to come up here that's freaky! just pray heavenly father knows what's best for you. and i agree with kaitlyn research everything!! they have hidden scholarships everywhere! get them!! also, i would live in helaman. i like the people better there. but, then again i stayed in heritage and i LOVED LOVED it. soooo much! i liked that i could eat anytime i wanted! but, the cannon center is DELICIOUS...most of the time! and don't worry about like roommates b\c i went random and loved it and i met my best friend doing that! no stress- jesse mcartney.
i love you!!
