So, I qualified for a nine day program at any of the nation's top ivy league colleges due to my academic success. I feel pride just coursing through my body because this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. It cost about $4,000 I need a chaperone because of my physical limitations and my dad doesn't support me at all. Because of his fiance. And I'm trying not to lose my head but it's hard not to when I earned a chance to gain knowledge in my career of choice and possibly get a $20,000 scholarship and yet "it won't benefit you in any way..." guys. I can't handle things right now. I've been going through a lot of episodes and I feel so burnt out but I want this so bad.
