I really feel like I need to share my scenario with all of you here and the dilemma I'm facing.
I'm from a really small town and well life has been kind of hard on my mother and I (my mom is a single mom) since my dad left us when I was young and everyone in my rural town is home schooled. The thing is the closest thing to a doctor in my town is this guy who just does research and doesn't really practice medicine (he's more of a professor). Our town is so small that everybody knows each other this doctor has a grandson who has been quite competitive with me (he is the only other boy in this town) ever since we were young lads. It's almost as if I was born here just to be this guy's rival. Now it just so happens that we both wanted to be physicians since we were young and everything has been a competition between him and I ever since we've met.
The thing is the doctor who is in our town is like my only real father figure ever since I could remember. And even though I know he doesn't think of me like that I still view him as such. It just pains me to see how much more he values his rotten little grandson when the guy could barely even care about his grandpas well being or love for him. I know this guy is just doing this to show me up, because he knows how much I care for the love his grandpa has to offer. His grandpa has been keeping up with our studies and progress as individuals and knows we both want to be physicians and I know it would mean a lot to him if either of us get into medical school...
The thing is he's kind of an older guy and nobody really rises up and out of this little town and he would really love to see us both be one of the only people who could hold the title of M.D. All I know is I have it in me to be the very best, it's just I feel like his grandson is always plotting against me and every encounter we have is always like fighting an uphill battle. He's such a bully and I know he would make a terrible physician just from his personality and people skills. He's stated multiple times he's only in it for the money too, because he knows he'll make more than me someday anyways. So my question to you sdn is, how can I be certain that I can make Professor Oak proud? It would truly mean the world to me and it wouldn't be too bad if I got into a better school than my life long rival. I know once my rival and I make it out into a university (he applied to all the same ones I did. I know... my mom is a bimbo) that he will probably be there looming over my head, I know he will do everything in his power to attend the same university. Again, all I want is to make Professor Oak proud so that I can finally know what it's like to be loved by his kind and gentle soul. It's all I've ever wanted.
Please, any advice would be great...
