Tassles and Titles

I've been nominated to apply for the President's Distinguished Graduate Award at my college!

...and I'm super nervous about it.  So nervous in fact, I'm nervous to even work on the application.  I'm starting it tonight.  I was informed of my nomination a little under two weeks ago, and the application is due in under a month.  The due date is smack in the middle of Spring Awakening's tech week and the finalist interviews would be right after the show closes, so I need to get the majority of it all done now.

I wish I knew why I'm so nervous about the whole process, considering I've become used to being in the public eye of the school's community for my leadership and co-curricular involvement.  I am extremely honored to even be nominated because CCBC has changed my life in so many ways that I'm grateful for.  Leaving with not just my degree but this award and the chance to represent the entire graduating class would be beyond amazing!  Any perspective/prayers/well wishes would be appreciated.

Well done!
You should definitely do that application NOW since putting it off will only make you worry more.
Either you will the award or you won't; what is truly awesome is that you were recognized and nominated.
Take this for what it is - an oppurtunity. Consider that you've already received the recognition for being amazing and now the application and waiting process is a life experience that you can chose to dread or enjoy.
Besides, it's good practice for the Tonys...
