College Applications

College essays and resumes
filling everything out feels like it will take days.
All the information has to be filled in
finishing them early so the fun can begin.

Writing down all my clubs and communtiy service
after sending the applications out I will be nervous.
Montclair, Hartwick, STAC, and Ramapo
were will I choose to go?

College essay is done,
using the common app so I'll only have to fill out one.
Deciding which scholarships to apply to
figuring what i have to do.

Now its time to send the applications in,
let the waiting begin.

Senior Year

Back to work and back to school,
time to close up the pool.
Setting alarms and packing everyones lunches,
meeting up with friends and talking in bunches.

New classes, new teachers
we discussed while sitting in the gym bleachers.
"This year will be a breeze!",
my friends said with ease.

Senior year is not all fun,
the college process has just begun.
Applying for the SATs hoping to do better,
waiting for that acceptance letter.

Juggling school and work can be a pain
while studying and getting everything done, trying to stay sane.
Waking up everymorning and fighting the urge to hit 'snooze'
Senior year is a battle I will not lose.
