Today i was working on my Smith supplement (as I really need to send in my application soon) and one of the questions was whether or not I thought an all women college was still relevant in 2009?
The problem with that is, I don't. I honestly do not think that there is any need for single sex colleges and the fact that only women attend smith has practically no affect on my deep longing to go there. This is a problem because as you can imagine, a school that prides itself on being single sex probably doesn't want to hear how you think it's irrelevant.
My mum thought I should just say what they want to hear, and my dad thought I should write what I thought in a way that just flattered them. I don't know what to do.
The problem really is that I want to go to Smith so incredibly bad, which makes me over-analyze every aspect of my application. I am also afraid of the devastation/ embarrassment that would ensue should I not get in.
I am flawed in the fact that i become so determined and set on achieving something that I can think of no other possible outcomes. (Schmuco). And to make it worse I do not handle rejection well. It makes me bitter and self-doubting in a way that is truly unattractive.
What is a girl to do?
In the end I ended up not getting much work done on my application at all, and instead I went furniture shopping.
