\"\"Senior year. Oh goodness gracious, I seriously never thought it would come. I\u2019ve been waiting my whole life to apply to college and get into Harvard (yeah, I know dream big right?) and now that I\u2019m here I\u2019m not only very nervous but also somewhat balking. I mean where do I start? First of all, since I\u2019m a huge procrastinator and only visited a few schools during the spring, I\u2019m going hard on college visits this month. I sorted out all<\/em> of the college mail I got during the past year (pack rat problems, I know), and only kept mail from colleges that I was interested in. From there, I sorted them by location, prioritized them by selectivity and ta da! I had my college visitation list. So next week, I\u2019m going to visit some of my top schools (and those with the most awesome mail \ud83d\ude42 ). I\u2019ve also decided I am going to overachieve and finish my college apps by October\u2026or well, I want <\/em>to. Let\u2019s just say my senior year is going to be ridiculous; I still want to take one more SAT in October and some subject tests in November. Did I mention I\u2019m also getting ready to die with the hardest classes I\u2019ve ever taken\u2014hello AP Chemistry\/Calculus\/European History\/English\/Spanish and accelerated physics all at the same time! Yay!! I\u2019m praying my guidance counselor is ready to be my crutch during this entire process because I\u2019m going to need help. My parents both went to college in Italy and so nobody in my family really knows what to do\u2014let\u2019s just say it\u2019s interesting being the firstborn in a family of immigrants. I\u2019m just as thrilled for the second half of senior year as I\u2019m nervous for the first half though. Prom, friends, graduation\u2014I can\u2019t wait \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
