in which i panic just a bit
I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned before on here that I’m applying to graduate school for graphic design, starting Fall 2009. It’s part of the reason I’m moving back East in the spring. The applications are due mid-January through mid-February for the schools I’m looking at applying to.
And I haven’t gotten past the research stage of it all yet. Umm… craaaaap.
I need to finalize where I’m going to apply. I need to contact people to give me recommendations. I need to think of a freaking third person to give me a recommendation. I need to fill out all the applications. I need to somehow come up with the over $300 for application fees. I need to figure out what the hell my portfolio is going to look like. I need to redesign my resume. I need to finish my website. I need to apply for financial aide.
I need to stop the panic that is building right now.
Crap, crap, crap.
Why did I wait so long to start this process? Oh, right… because I decided like a month ago that this was something I wanted to do.
Ugh.
And if after all this panic and all the work I have ahead of me, I don’t get in anywhere… I’m going to be devastated. Graduate school is so much more competitive than undergrad. I got in everywhere I applied for undergrad and got to choose, but that likely won’t happen this time around.
Crap, crap, crap.
Someone make me stop panicking!
