I was researching about RISD dorms, meal plans and stuff today. I don’t know why I am researching about it, I mean I don’t even get my admission decision for another week. I am really nervous about finding out if I get in or not. I feel as if I am more then adequate to attend RISD and handle their intense program. I just feel so frustrated because it’s like how am I supposed to express who I am as a person and an artist in three drawings, an essay, and my portfolio? It just seems impossible.

So I found myself looking through all this information about RISD for the past month more than ever – rereading every article, googling every single thing and question I have about the school. Reading reviews, reading forums and posts about other people who applied and why they got in or did not.

As much as I want to go to RISD I find myself upset when I read/look at anything to do with RISD. This is because I find RISD to be my absolute dream school. Everything about it draws me in (besides the price, hahah – can you say student loan?). I just feel like I didn’t think my application through enough.

I mean there is nothing I can do about it now. So I am just going to have to deal with the results no matter what. After I get this decision I suppose I will start looking up the other 9 schools I applied to and start researching which one fits me the second best compared to RISD.

Well, keep your fingers crossed for me.
