Waiting Forever

So, I know it's only May... I'm really, absurdly early to the waiting game for this year's application. But, I just can't wait >.> I figure now is as good a time as any to remind myself and everyone that might read this: I and everyone else will wait forever and ever and ever and ever. Then? You wait some more. The application came out at the beginning of November last year, then a month to the application deadline, then waiting for your SASE and number, then wait for the interview list, then if you get an interview, wait for the interview, then you wait for your new status, then if you get alternate, you wait to get upgraded, if you get shortlisted, you wait to get your placement, then you wait to leave. That sentence is ridiculously long and awful. It's almost as awful as all that waiting is. I promise, it's awful with the waiting... But what else can I do? What else can anyone do? Wait and wait some more. There are no other options.
