MBA application=marriage proposal

teresazlt

Applying to your dream school is just like making proposal to you lover

you watch his/her every move, and you ponder every hint he/she gives you

you begin to seriously plan the future of you two, including the incredibly exorbitant wedding

finally, you get the courage to propose

you write love letters and anxiously wait for his/her answer

for that simple answer you check email thousands of times,and  you toss and turn all night long

for those who are rejected, it hurts, and it damn hurts

but there is nothing to feel ashamed of

not every man could marry Marilyn Monroe; not every president graduate from Ivy league

you should proudly say: I loved you; I am still loving you, and I probably will love you forever

but you have to move on, and you have to go on to find the one who can really appreciates who you are

obsession will do you no good

for those who are admitted, it's absolutely wonderful you find your Mr/Ms Right

but marriage is far more complicated than love

it requires compromise, understanding and communication

you might end up marrying a school which is totally different from what you dated or thought

you might love him/her more, and you might also hate him/her more

but either way,you should at least try to make it work

Be the experience filled with joys, challenged, or obstacles,

it's our pursuit of happiness

it bears our sweat, toil, dream and faith

it will be appreciated,and it will be remembered
