Let's talk stress...
Not the biggest fan of it...
Where is this stress coming from?
The terrible disease of (pause for suspense)
Oldness!
(pretty sure it counts as a disease)
being old, growing up, what ever you'd like to call it, scares me.
a lot.
how do you turn this:
to this:
funny thing is I've been so excited for it my whole life and all of the sudden,
(let's say Saturday during the ACT,)
it hit me that I'm old.
Maybe not like OLD
But I'm going to be applying for college in a few months!
Well, try as I might, I couldn't shake this stress.
I slept on it, and at church I realized I'm the oldest in my Sunday School Class now!
Yikes!
It kind of slipped for a few days until my dad showed me this:
You're probably thinking: so what? It's a guy climbing up a building!
This was filmed at USU one of my 3 main choices for college.
Seeing this just made me think more of that stress.
So I need some MAJOR input here.
BYU, home of the Cougars, has been my choice school my whole life.
Both my parents went there, both my older sisters go there, and I've just grown up loving everything about it. I could probably talk all day about why I want to go to BYU: majors, friends, art programs, etc.
Never in my life did I really ever want to go anywhere but BYU
until this year where other colleges started interesting me.
USU is my second choice.
Not sure if I desperately want to be an Aggie
but USU has certainly taken an interest in me
and I have a slight interest in some of its programs.
Downside? They have some pretty mean sports fans
and I don't want to be a part of that...
SVU (for those who don't know) is a small LDS college in Virgina.
It is GOR.GE.OUS.
Look at it! It just makes me sigh!
It has some wonderful programs as well.
It has two major downfalls for me at the moment:
Distance:
I'm not sure how far away from home I want to be on the first year of college.
The two other schools are within in the same state SVU is clear across the country!
Arts/Sports:
Going to a small college outside of Utah;
if you are good at something here, you're great at it there.
And if you're great at something here, you're the star there.
I don't really want that...
Anyway, any suggestions anyone?
Help on this topic would be very much appreciated.
I would go to a closer university first, just help get used to college life. Then dive into SVU if that's still an option and you still want to go there.
ReplyDeleteI survived going away for school and so did your mom. So, if you want to go to SVU, go for it. But, if you want to go far away for school, how about BYU--Hawaii.

ReplyDeleteobviously. you can stay with me:)I always thought I wanted to go here, and then senior year, i thought that other colleges would be fun too...but no. Stay with your heart, and with me! Be a cougar:)
Pray, babe. But don't stress about it now. You'll drive yourself crazy. You still have plenty of time. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your help! It really means a lot [:
