You Tell Me

       Today I've had my fair share of disappointments. I was nominated from teachers, counselors, admin, etc., for NSLC. For all of you who don't know what that is, it's the National Student Leaderhsip Conference. It's of a pretty big deal.
#1 Let Down of the day. I can't go. No money, no time, no patience.
       I've got anxiety bad, but I was willing to fight through this to go to Washington, or New York. But my parents wasted no time giving me a straight no. What they say is "You're the third Fike to get an invitation from them. It's not that big of a deal. You can't go. You'll just keep getting more, don't worry bout it." UH....excuse me?
        What about this am I supposed to learn from? You tell me.
