Help? If possible.
This year I am reapplying to grad school. I'm applying to all the schools to be admitted into two different programs: the Creative Writing MFA and the English MA. I feel like if I don't get into the former I probably have more of a chance with the latter. So far, the schools I'm applying to are:
Washington University in St Louis, University of Florida, University of Texas, New York University, University of Houston, Saint Mary's College of California.
I'm also looking into University of Michigan, Otis College of Art and Design, School of the Art Institute of Chicago, University of Notre Dame, University of New Orleans, Emerson College, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, University of New Hampshire, Rutgers University, City College of New York, The New School, Sarah Lawrence College, Syracuse University, Ohio State University, Chatham University, University of Pittsburgh, University of South Carolina, Vanderbuilt University, Goddard College, George Mason University, Hollins University, University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in Alaska, University of New Brunswick, University of British Columbia anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in Canada, University of East Anglia in the UK, anywhere that does MFAs in Creative Writing in any English speaking country such as the UK, Australia, or New Zealand, and English MA programs anywhere in Europe, particularly the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Poland, and English MA programs anywhere in the world, including Argentina, South Africa, India, China, Russia, and Egypt.
Um, so. The purpose of this post is to ask if anyone has any advice on any of these universities, any of these locations, any English MA programs, any Creative Writing MFA programs, any grad programs, getting into grad programs, writing portfolios, and stuff. I'm just trying to gather any info I can on the process of choosing and applying, as I have failed so spectacularly in the past.
So how 'bout that Buffy 6 comic?

I've been really upset about this. It's been hanging over my head for--well, years now, and whenever I think about it I just go into this spiral of self doubt and yeah, I haven't been doing well lately. I just can't tell you how much you, and the responses to this post, have made me feel so different about it all. I was researching and researching, but because I wasn't *talking* to people I still felt so lost. Now that I look at it I feel like I was *trying* to trap myself, because I wouldn't talk about it, I thought it was stupid to post about it, I thought no one could help me, I thought doing a post like this was really a last ditch effort. I really can't express how much better I feel now.
ILU KITA.

You have crazy brain sometimes, just like I do. It's always helpful to get outside it for a while. I'm really happy I could help in some way.

Exactly. It's really scary sometimes how much I *don't* do that. For one thing, I suck at asking for help. I'll be lost for hours and hours rather than stop five minutes and ask for directions. Why? Crazy brain!
