"Filling out the FAFSA!"

As my senior year continues day after day after day,
more and more responsibilities pile up and cause the days to turn gray.
Filling out the FAFSA was an addition to my task list,
but I never expected the application would be full of twists.

I started the application in the beginning of January,
and, unfortunately, I treated it with an attitude that was airy.
Every day would pass, and I would say to myself,
"Tomorrow is another day to start," as I piled up tasks on my shelf.

January passed and February started without any notice.
I finally realized this was something I could not continue to dismiss.
My family and I sat to finish this application once and for all,
but we soon enough noticed we hit a brick wall.

Our tax forms were not completely filled out,
so I could not help but feel a sense of doubt.
Therefore, we found it difficult to answer all the questions
and I wondered who could provide me with suggestions.

I rushed to my guidance counselor to see if she could help,
and she assisted me with all my questions and told me not to yelp.
Thanks to Mrs. Harle, I was able to finally complete it,
and because of her, I didn't throw a fit!
