"Applying for Colleges"

With the months passing quickly I had to get my college applications out soon.
I procrastinated with it so much I felt like it wouldn't be done until June.
Now all my friends already got accepted and I hand't even applied.
I told my father I had already, but of course I lied.
Then finally I decided it was time to stop delaying it.
It had to be done and waiting made me a nit wit.
After applying for my first college I realized it wasn't so bad.
In that one night I applied for 5 colleges and that made me glad.
Finally applying took so much stress off of senior year.
Now I couldn't wait for the results to appear.
The waiting seemed endless but it had only been a couple days.
I couldn't wait to hear back so the stress would go away.
Only two weeks after applying I got 3 letters in the mail.
Seeing them I was nervous and almost turned pale.
I opened the 3 and they were all acceptances,
I was so happy I could barely speak a sentence.

  1. I really like this poem and I can totally agree with the process of applications being very stressful! Congrats on your acceptances!

  2. Waiting this long was pretty foolish, but I'm glad you're not as stressed anymore. Congratulations of course for getting accepted into college!
