|Lifestyle| Graduate School Bound: American University

9/30/16

I finally decided to take the plunge and apply for graduate school!

I've been on the fence about this for many reasons, but I kicked my own ass out of the rut that I got myself into and applied. I applied to the American University for their online International Relations Masters program, emphasis on U.S Foreign Policy and National Security.

Yikes much?

Quite honestly I'm not too confident in myself. I just feel so underprepared because my undergraduate degree was so broad and so open-ended and now I'm focusing on something so specific with no previous work on it.

It's crazy. I'm nervous. WTF am I even doing and will this even be worth it?

Also there's so much additional stuff I need to do in order to apply:
-take GRE (why does it cost so much to take a quiz??)
-buy a new computer
-figure out finances
-figure out my life
-adult properly?
-survive?

Fake it until you make it right?
