I sit in my room while the rain pitter patters on the roof. Its 7:30 at night and the sun is beginning to set but its gloomier than usual because of the storm. I slowly tear open the top of the envelope. I pull out the letter and unfold it. I scan over the entire letter until I reach the word accepted. I scream yes and start dancing around my bed. "I can't believe this!" I say to myself. I collapse on my bed on to my back and give a sigh of relief. I run downstairs and tell my mom I made it in while running and grabbing my rain coat and shoes and run down to the barn. I run to Brindle's stall. Brindle is my grand champion Morgan horse. "We made it Brinny!" I say excitedly rain dripping off of my arms into the stained shavings. I hug Brindle one last time then close the stall and run back to the house. I run up to my room and scan over the letter one more time. One of the sentences read "it is mandatory that you move because there will be private rooms for everyone on the yard." . Leave? Move? Leave my family and friends? What?! How was I supposed to do that? But I've also waited for this for so long I couldn't say no. What will I do. "Oh my gosh im so proud of you hun, you excited?" Mom asks. "Um yeah totally excited." I say unbelievably. "Whats wrong" she asks "um so i have to leave and I have to move without you guys because it's mandatory for us to stay in the dorms they provide." I say. My mom gasps. "You know what even if you do have to move you'll still have Brindle and we'll FaceTime you and visit as much as we can!" She says. Just for a measurement I live in New Hampshire and the school is in Nebraska. That a thousand miles away from home. My home.
"Ok night love ya mom" "love you too" she says kissing me on the forehead. I slip down into my bed and drift of to sleep.
