Jorie Haywood's senior year of high school is going precisely according to plan: she's taking all the AP classes she wanted, she's the backstage manager of the school musical, and most importantly, she's just waiting for an acceptance letter to her dream college: the University of Florida. Nothing can ruin these last few months.

That is until she gets waitlisted by UF.

Embarrassed by her failure and anxious to correct it, Jorie throws herself into a competition designed to encourage student involvement in local government to attract the attention of college scouts. If she wins, it might be enough to get UF to reconsider their heinous error. When the musical gets shut down due to a lack of funding, it provides the perfect project topic.

Jorie's motivation morphs into a frenzy to win by any means, threatening to drive away her project partner and best friend Wesley who doesn't understand the urgency -- after all, she's been lying to him about her admissions status. It doesn't make it any easier that she's pretty sure Wesley likes her, and she's starting to think she might like him too.

Feeling overwhelmed by all of the balls she's juggling, Jorie starts to worry about what will happen if she lets any of them drop, realizing that maybe her priorities aren't what they once were. Maybe part of growing up means that your goals for the future change.
