Spring is just around the corner (though it's hard to believe because of the weather) and that means... application time. Never too early to start working on it.
So I signed up for an "application writing course" at school. I hope it's going to pay off but for now I'm just scared to death.
I've sent applications to the art academies for three years now without even getting through to the interview, but each year I convince myself I have a better chance than the year before. This year I have actually been told I might have a chance and that scares me even more.
But the thing that scares me the most is the text that has to be sent in with the application - apparently it's extremely important and has to be perfect in order to get you through to the interview. So in addition to tearing my hair out because the photos of my work turn out awful, and I'm stuck without any new ideas, I have to dig deep into myself and define what my work is all about and put it into big fancy words - though not too big and not too fancy, just big and fancy enough to make me seem interesting but not pretentious.
To sum it all up - I'm working on my applications, I'm scared to death, stressed out... and in need of a miracle.
