Help Alex Study Abroad

Hey guys. My name is Aleksa, but in America I got a name Alex,I guess it’s more international,and I loved it. As you read I went to America for one semester of my senior year and it’s not enough to say that these 6 months have been the most magical ones I ever had! For the first time I had friends, I was going out and having soulmates and someone to talk to, I have learned soo much about American couture and I experienced so many different emotions. I was in an incredible school with the best,most supportive people! I loved and have met so many Americans from different schools and social areas. I know that Americans are always complaining about their neighbors, school and stuff but believe me when I say that in America EVERYTHING was perfect for me! I had extremely high expectations and my mommy was always telling me not to expect too much so I don’t get disappointed, but I couldn’t help it...even with extremely high expectations, America reached them a hundred times!
I came back to my country...bad school system, the most anti-liberal country, mean people, poor standard, expensive life...etc and seeing my parents struggling with money again after this time I was away, made me realize I want to go to a better country that can actually give me the future...I was applying for colleges for months, I put so much effort in doing SATs & ACTs and doing well in school! Since forever I knew I need to have all good grades because my parent can’t help me much with paying for college in America! And now after so many months of applying I started getting accepted into colleges...my friends are saying that I got great scholarships and that I should be proud! My parents are sad that they still can’t help me pay for it and even when I consider working how much my visa will allow me, I can’t save enough.
Making this page is the move I made from a desperate need for help. I am so tired of multiple breakdowns daily and of trying to figure out where and how to earn that much money. I feel SOO empty and devastated knowing that I won’t see my first friends I ever made if I don’t go to college in America...meaning that without Your help I won’t be able to save enough... Thank you for reading my story and I really hope You can send me back to fulfill my biggest dream of studying psychology in America. Thank You.
