In the college admissions game, all the hard work boils down to one
thing: big envelope or small envelope. Getting a big envelope, full
of forms and promises and maybe even a bumper sticker in the mail from
a certain school typically means you’ve been accepted. A small
envelope? Better luck next mailbag.

Emily Ballard is a high school senior. Those who thinks that means she
can kick back and enjoy one last year of high school can count
themselves sorely out of touch.
The high school senior is always torn between the present and the
future, and Emily is no different. While caught up in the high
school everyday – the early hours, the everyday high school drama, and,
of course, the essays and tests – college and the real world loom
large.
