Of all the things that I have done in my life, nothing prepared me for looking for a school to attend for graduate study. I thought it would be so easy. Pick a school, read about its accreditation, and then apply. However, there is more to it than that. From financial considerations to various academic considerations there is always something else to choose. Take me for instance, I have thirteen universities that I have chosen to apply to for graduate study. Some are Ivy League and some are not. However, they all have one thing in common. It is so damn hard to find any information on their websites that relay useful information.

I never thought it would be so hard to find information about application to a university for graduate study. Dates, required documents, and anything else I need to find is so hard to get to. I go from one page to the next searching for the final link that will lead me to information paradise, but it never comes. I gather bits from all over the websites and I do have the necessary information eventually, however, it takes time. I guess you could say, the struggle is real.

Don't get me wrong. I am excited to go off to graduate school and live my life as a true-blood adult. However, its so damn hard to get there. I am excited about going, but I am also dreading going, as it marks a new chapter in my life and the lives of my friends and family. I will hold responsibility on an unprecedented scale and not have any time to practice my responsibility. "Don't worry", people say. "It'll be fine", others chime in, but I don't really think they believe it.

They know just how to get you to stop thinking about it and get you to let go of everything. Personally, worrying about something is frustrating, but it can help you in the long run. So I guess I'll just keep on worrying.
