<p>Great idea, Oi. Think about your capability to navigate a complicated application system--with huge success. Take a minute to realize what a great skill you now have. You get a cyber pat on the back from me, that's for sure.</p>
<p>That skill is now one of your tickets for future success--and for your ability to take your family with you as you rise to the top. You can use that skill to make the most out of your JMU experience (internships, study abroad opportunities). You can also use that skill to put some boarding school opportunities on the table for your sister (maybe). Even the best social workder wouldn't have that skill.</p>
<p>Learn skills, master skills, then use them in unexpected ways.</p>
<p>You will be Golden before you know it!</p>
