That's so sweet thank you. Sorry, I've been neglecting this site a bit. I've finally a read it and I think your descriptions are wonderful as usual. I also doubt there will be much chance of your characters turning into 'mary sue' characters with this kind of theme:) which was mine only real issue with 'Heal Me'
Sorry to hear you missed out on a scholarship. I'm not sure what country you're in but is there the possibility of getting a degree there and perhaps studying overseas later for post graduate work? You may appreciate the experience more at an older age anyway. What ever happens, you have a fantastic command of English and I'm sure options will open up for you later. Best of luck.
