Ever since I was very little, I wanted to go to a certain college. I was told by many that it wouldn't happen. They said it was too competitive and even if I tried, I would fail. I set out to prove them wrong. I tried and tried and prayed and prayed it would happen. Everytime I prayed I thought even more strongly that this was where God wanted me to go. After four long years of high school, I got accepted. Now, after all these years of trying, my parents tell me it won't happen. We can't afford it. I've filled out literally hundreds of scholarship forms. I've not received a single one except for a 7500$ a year scholarship from the school. This will no where near cover the 40000$+ a year fees. Why would God even let me get in, let me get SO close to fulfilling a dream I've had since childhood, then rip it away right from under me like a cruel childhood bully, laughing and mocking me? This is not the kind God I knew growing up as a Catholic child.
