I was young and impatient once, too. It was back before we had the internet, and writing and stuff. Sorry, we old geezers do go off sometimes. How about this...
Volunteer with whatever rescue operation you wish to adopt from. I did dog rescue for 15 years and I know we always needed help. It would be a perfect way for you to show how much you know and how mature you really are. It's much harder to think of somebody as a know-nothing kid when you are working beside them. Also, since most highschools require volunteer work for graduation these days, you could be killing two birds with one stone. And take to heart what Ms. Lawrence said, in both writing and speech; if you sound more mature, you will be perceived as more mature.
Best wishes on you quest.
