Cotillion

[De6]

I would like to bring this post back to the top, because I need some help. As some of you know, I am involved in a Cotillion, which is sponored by Alpha Kappa Alpha. The young lady that raises the most money will be crowned and she will get the highest scholarship. This is my goal, but even if I do not win, I would like to place really high. There are 5 runner-ups and then, of course, the BIG title. Well, it is getting close to the time for me to make my debut. The lady who was supposed to be my mentor told me to my face, several times, that I was not going to win. Her reasoning for saying this is, because I am going against "rich" girls. I feel like some kind of charity case. I feel like she wants to say this, "Here is this average little girl that I took out of the ghetto and made her into something. Now all of my sorority sisters can look at what I have done and pat me on the back." It is really devasting, because I really respected her, but I must strive to prove her wrong. This situation is really crazy, but this is where you all come in. I know that you all do not know me, but if you feel that you can help me, please PM me.
