I feel like my life is over before it's getting a chance to begin. I hate to ask it, but MMFB?

If it sounds like high school drama, that's because it is. I'm a senior, and it's hitting me that I'm not going to get to go to a good school. Plus, today was a rather daunting day. I got my ACT score back, and I'm too ashamed to tell my friends that I got the same score as I did the last time from like ninth grade, so instead of telling them I got a 32 I've been telling them it was voided.

I also got rejected by Coca-Cola Scholars. Of course, they didn't tell me why. I have over a 3.5 GPA, decent test scores (215 PSAT, 32 ACT), 200+ hours of community service, two sports plus clubs for extracurriculars, and I'm in the top 2% of my class in the most prestigious school in my state. What did I do wrong? I feel like I'm good enough, yet I clearly wasn't.

I wanna go to a somewhat difficult school (Tulane), but I feel like I'm going to have to settle for something less. All my life, I've been told that I've got all this talent and potential, and I feel like I'll have let everyone down if I go to a state school. I mean, I know it's not the end of the world, but it feels like it. I feel like I've earned better.

And to complete the high school requirement for relationship drama, my girlfriend's been distant the past month or so, and I don't know what the hell to do about it. I can't stand the idea of having to deal with her after breaking up, considering that we live in dorms twenty feet from each other. Makes life awkward.

Can someone, anyone, mmfb?
