Frustration Abounds

How To Handle A Discouraging Professor?

Today I went to my Japanese professor to ask her about my application for the JET program.  When I walked in I said the standard greeting  which is  respectful way to say excuse the interruption when entering some one's office.  Without looking up from her desk she had a smile on her face and replied for me to come in and sit down.  Once she looked up at me her face turned into a frown and she said "Oh it's you.  I was expecting someone else." 
I continued anyway informing her that I was beginning my application to the JET program and I asked if she had any of the past participant's statements of purpose that I could review to get an idea of formatting and content.  She told me she did not understand my question and I had to explain again that if these former student had been accepted then obviously they had an understanding of what was expected.  She told me that she would not let me copy some one's work.  That is not what I wanted to do.  Obviously I would not cheat or copy anyone else's statement of purpose because it would not be MY statement of purpose.  She began to berate me about how I was not equipped for the position, and that she thought that I would probably "offend MANY Japanese people" because I did not understand Japanese culture.  I politely asked her if she would at least review my application and tell me what needed to be done.  She told me she would, but that she would not recommend me.  I then asked her if she was going to go out of her way to give me a bad recommendation.  She said "I want nothing to do with your application."  This interaction was very disheartening.  Am I really equipped to go through with this dream, or is it just that a dream that I am not qualified to fulfill?  How do I go about proving myself to someone who is so pivotal in the application process for this program?
