School Goals.... Winter

[emberleo]

Okay, I can't handle this. I'm freaking way too far out. I have the help I need when I can surface enough to breathe and ASK for it, and that's great, but I simply can not handle the prospect of going back to school in late August. I can barely handle the prospect of late September.

January, though, that feels do-able. The deadline for that is October. I'll not only be sure they have all my letters and transcripts, but that gives the GRE folks plenty of time to send my scores, and I can sort out my taxes and funding options as well, which are still overwhelming me right now.

I'm ashamed that this is still so fucking hard. I hate this about myself. And I'm afraid that everyone will be so disappointed in me putting it off another quarter. But I just need the breathing room.

Besides, my summer job doesn't end until October, and I have that trip out East to deal with as well, so maybe it's just.... better all around.

Sorry, my incredulity for funny's sake doesn't shine online the way it would in person.

Picture the first part being said with like the high-lilting valley girl speak so that everything sounds like a big ol' question. :D

Oh, I got it - no need to apologize.

I just was expecting something more like "oh, poor thing" or "are you sure this is the right thing?"
