I applied to a bunch of schools cuz i was lowk scared but now im just collecting the acceptances to see lol

honestly i know im cracked but im questioning if its all been worth it. grinded my asssssss off the last 4 years. i sacrificed so much of my sleep and social life for my academics and ECs, which I love. but i effectively have no friends. I get along well with people but here I am as a senior with acceptances to where everyone wants to be - but no friends to go with prom with. it sucks, i have more time as a senior but everybody’s social groups are already established. im social, and i make friends easily, but I just haven’t had the time the past few years to establish those deep connections where you hang out with friends on weekends and shit like that, yk?but now that i have more time it just kinda sucks seeing what you missed out on. but at the end of they day we all have 24 hrs, what we choose to spend it on is important - for me, i just chose work and exercise over social

not trying to get advice on this or anything, but for the underclasses out there aiming for stanford or harvard, yall should know the sacrifices you’ll have to make

i’ll try to respond to comments as they come up if there’s questions
