You guys remember the scholarship I applied for? The big one for studying abroad, that I was going to use to go to London next semester? The scholarship whose app I spent weeks working on and agonizing over? And then months on edge waiting to hear about?

I just got an email from them.

I didn't get it.

I've already had a long day and a long week, I've been fighting a migraine all afternoon, and now this.

We're going to try to scrape together the money somehow, but it's a lot of money and I'm not sure we can do it. I'm not ready to give up, either, yet. But... damn it would've been nice to get the scholarship. That would've paid around 75% of the cost.

I'm not really sure whether to go off and cry now, or start taking stock of stuff I can sell on eBay. The latter would be more productive, but....

Yeah.

You've probably already thought of this, but just in case...

quite often there are generic scholarships offered by groups with names like 'the anglo-american friendship trust' n other such worthy titles. It may be worth scouring the net to see if there isn't one of these type of scholarships you could apply for.

I'm sorry to hear that, hon! Hopefully you can either find another scholarship (or a couple. There are some you can get more than one) or get the $$ together.
