I have received confirmations from UoS and LTU that my online applications have been received; UNSW inconveniently required me to snail-mail a few documents directly to their office, so I expect to receive their confirmation *soon*.
And now I wait.
And as I wait, I start to question. And doubt. And FREAK OUT.
What if they don't send me an offer?
What if it's not my top pick?
What if I didn't apply to enough schools?
What if they don't like the format on my CV?
What if they don't reply at all?
What if I forgot to upload an important document?
What if my personal statement wasn't awesome enough?
How do I hide it? It's quite simple, really. I've trained the rational side of me to take over my body language and facial expressions so's to maintain a convincingly calm and collected outward demeanor.
Of course, once I've been sent an offer, I will be able to get the ball rolling with my student visa, international phone, health insurance, and living arrangements (you know, the fun stuff). But none of that can begin until I have a confirmed destination. SIGH...
Pray for patience. I currently have none.
Stay tuned for more updates as they happen.
