We know that most of you are putting the finishing touches on your November 1 applications and we are doing the same for OUR part of your applications. We are also still meeting and greeting colleges, reading your essays, short answers, and quick email questions, and generally feeling very stressed about the amount of work that needs to be done.
If you find that you are so full of angst about what has to be done that nothing is actually getting done, I recommend a very brief and energizing distraction. Here are some of my favorites from the past few nights:
1) "Test out" the Halloween candy that is in the pantry for trick or treaters.
2) Contemplate your Halloween costume.
3) Organize your email inbox.
4) Think about what you will be Thankful For once Thanksgiving finally rolls around (hint: that your Early Applications are in).
5) Fold some laundry. At least you will feel that sense of accomplishment that seems elusive with so much to do!
6) Revel in your Marshmallow Roast victory.
Okay - your time is up. Back to work for both of us!
