"Now I wallow in my self-pity."

"Dear Sarah,

Thank you for your interest in Preview and for your application for the position of Preview Guide. Although you have not been selected as a Preview Guide, we are pleased to notify you that you have been selected as one of the Preview Guide alternates. If a vacancy occurs, which does occasionally happen, you will be considered as a top candidate for the position.

As you are aware, we had an exceptionally large number of fine candidates for the limited number of positions available. Therefore, your position as an alternate should certainly not be considered as a negative reflection on your abilities. We are confident that you will find other opportunities within the university community to be of assistance to your fellow students. We wish you continued success in your endeavors at Illinois State University.

If you have any questions regarding your role in Preview 2006, please free to contact us. We will gladly schedule an appointment to speak to you."

So this is the end of my not-so-bad day. I have to say I'm extremely disappointed. I want to know why I am only an alternate--more than likely because I am a freshman. I hate being a young-on'. Now to finish my craptacular mood, I'm off to the showers. *sigh*

Sorry to hear you didn't get the job. Maybe you will step into someone else's place.
