Some of the applications for scholarships are ridiculous!! Some I haven't bothered to apply for because I fear my pen will explode.

Cheers for an easy scholarship! Still, it's a good thing that not all scholarships are based primarily on luck.

I have been putting off the whole applying for scholarship thing for so long now. Yes, some of them are pretty long. =.= I bet the scholarships during the beginning on the year was easier to get then the last minute ones XD

I agree  Applications do take a lot of time.. In my case it just got my hopes up and took a lot of my time. It is kind of depressing when not many recognize your achievements just because someone else is even more amazing!

I so agree with everyone that waiting around for replies suck. My biggest annoyance was I once recieved a response for one
and was told that I was chosen as an alternate, so if someone else screws up then I'm qualified to get the scholarship.

Yeah, it is tiring to fill out those never-ending application forms which repeat the same questions over and over again. I like the idea of this scholarship because it's simple and it's straight to the point. Unlike the other scholarships they have a minimum of 10 pages to fill out! And the worst part is that when you have to write an essay or paragraph on a question they give you, you have to either print it and paste it on the lines provided or put it on a type-writer or something. It's such a hassle, but I still do it anyways because scholarships are worth the going back and forth and tumbling around in circles! Even if my fingers can barely move from writing for 3 hours, I would still do it anyways even if in the back burner of my brain, I really want to fall on my bed and sleep! If it helps my post-secondary finances, it's worth the pain and fatigue!

Well, here's to quick cash! That is, if I win. I must have applied for a million different scholarships and I haven't heard back from any. The ones that aren't over yet are hard to wait for! Hopefully my luck increases because this is seriously disheartening.

this way is so much easier to win some money for post secondary, filling out those applications and writing essays started to drive me crazy.
