Climbing the Ladder


Dear Charlene,
We are sorry to inform you that you have not been accepted to the State University of New York, college at Oneonta.

I try to make my first step, but I fall down. I get back up and try again but the same thing happens every time. Why does it seem like I will never make it to the top? Would I ever be capable of looking back at the great accomplishments? Wake up! What was I thinking? I am intelligent, beautiful and talented. Very talented. As long as I put my mind to doing something, I know I can do it.

Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted as a Freshman student to Johnson C. Smith University for the Fall 2000 term. Because of your academic background and preparation, we feel that you will be as asset to our University. I need some encouragement. Knowing that I have something
