Today, I got denied from UNCG. I feel like I could just die from sadness. I don't know who to talk to or what to do because the hurt is so deep. For years I have dreaded the moment when the email pops up on your phone or your laptop, and you see your future right there in that tiny box. I did not prepare myself well for denials, but I really don't think that there is anyway to prepare yourself. I feel so stupid. I feel like I let everyone down, including myself. I know this isn't the end of the road, I still have more schools, but this determines how competitive I am, and apparently I am not enough. All of these years of feeling like I don't fit in or am not enough, or trying so hard to change who I am to be an SLP type of person wasn't enough. It feels like I will just never be good enough and it simply sucks. I don't even want to find out about my other schools because I am sure they will be just as bad as this one. I am sorry this was such a depressing post but I needed to say it to people who understand. I know that this doesn't determine my worth, but it sure feels like it right now. In 5 years it won't even matter, but it feels like the whole world right now. After all of my hard work, and effort, I am simply not enough.
