Is it normal to fear this is all for nothing?

Since middle school, everything ive done is so that i can get into a good college. I work my butt of at school and take all honors courses, but i fear that this will all be for nothing and I won't get that dream job or dream college. If I die tomorrow I will have done nothing but prepare for something that never came. I want to do something with my life, and even though ive won awards and done volunteer work I still feel like ive done nothing

    Life is a gamble. Just do what makes you happy. Don't work hard for something that doesn't feel right to you just because society expects you to do great things. Balance between "work and fun" is just the way The Man gets you to compromise. Unfortunately it isn't simple, just weigh your options and make the most.
