AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

So I literally just finished polishing and sending off a CV and cover letter for *mumblemumble*. It was horrible. You guys know weird and hung-up I get over love memes and the like; trying to flatter myself is approximately 3947534286 times worse. Approximately. Anyway, so I finish that, breathe a sigh of relief - and head downstairs to find SURPRIES GRAD SCHOOL APPLICATION PACKS.

Awesome, I know.

God, the thought of writing personal statements just makes me want to cry. And the REFERENCE FORMS. Even looking at them out of the corner of my eye causes me to die a little of mortification. So detailed!

I'm going to be here, hiding under my blankets.

YAY CV!!!

Erm. The only thing I can offer wrt the grad school packs is that some of them can use the same essay, tweaked a bit. >.> Not that I did this.

GO YOU.

I haaaaaate writing personal statements and cover letters and anything that requires me to talk about how awesome I am. (While not sounding like I'm stuck-up or bragging! And yet still making sure all my awesomeness is properly conveyed! And. Auuugh.)

Eee :( I have to compile a C.V. before I move away and the thought of asking people to act as references for me scares me SO MUCH!
