Dear College Applications,

Whoever invented college apps had something against students. I swear. This person had it out for us.  In retrospect, we are begging these people to take $50,000+ a year from our parents bank accounts.

Not only do we have to write an essay that is supposed to separate us from the other tens of thousands of kids applying there, we have about a hundred other unnecessary hoops to jump through to attend their school. We have to write the essay, send in our transcripts, take the SATs which is a THREE HOUR LONG STANDARDIZED TEST, and for me and my fellow prospective art school students, PORTFOLIO. Which is 10-20 pieces of your artwork. I'm going a little insane to say the least.

Not to mention that most of this work is done on the computer. Which is the biggest distraction of your entire life.

I don't even know where this angsty story is going anymore. The entire process just seems ridiculous to me. But that may just be because I'm in the middle of it and it's going to drive me off the edge of a cliff. So,college applications, would it kill you to be a little more respectful of my mental well being? thanks.

Sincerely,

That really angsty ginger

PS-

I can't touch my toes
