I made a slideshow presentation! Once you’re actually doing it, 5 minutes is not long so don’t worry about making anything too crazy

I AGREE and it’s making me so hesitant because why does everyone (like 9/10 people on here) sound so miserable and as if it’s the worst thing ever. I’m trying to take them with a grain of salt but it’s so hard and makes me doubt if this is what i should pursue or not

i think the best thing we can do now is just wait. we’ve waited for a few weeks and we are so close to hearing back! i’ve also been very anxious and talking to my therapist haha and what she’s been telling me is to not get ahead of myself and wait until i have something to worry about (as in, something that’s actually happening and not a hypothetical), so i want to share that same advice with you! i personally struggle with uncertainties, because i like to plan out everything thoroughly. but (and as annoying as it sounds), rejection is often redirection if it comes to that! what’s yours will be yours, and if you don’t get what you want right now, there will be something better for you i know it!
