three minutes later all of use were sitting around the dining table with the packet organized into alphabetical order

"berkeley" my dad handed me the first letter.

taking a huge breath i grabbed the letter opener and the huge envelope and started to tear it open.

"mommy?"

"yes honey" she was looking at the envelope like everyone else.

"I'm scared, what if i didn't get into any of them?"

"mare, you applied to almost every college that exists, i doubt you didn't get into at least one of them."

i took the contents out of the envelope.

"congratulations! on behalf of the berekely admissions staff, it is with great pleasure to announce you acceptance to berkeley as a music major starting fall 2016!"

"oh my god" oh my FÚCKING god.

"what is it honey? did you get in or not?"

i looked around the dining table at the faces of my huge loving family anticipating my answer.

"i got in." i whispered

"SHE GOT IN TO BEREKELY!!"

"MY BABY GIRL IS GOING TO BEREKELY"

"MY SISTER IS SMART ENOUGH TO GET INTO BERKELEY"

this went on for a while after opening the letter to berekely i opened brown,columbia, dartmouth, duke, georgetown, harvard, juliard, nyu, princeton, stanford, ucla and lastly, yale.

i got accepted into berekely, dartmouth, georgetown, nyu, ucla, and juliard.

me. average, works hard at her grades me. got into some of the most prestigious colleges in the world. to study something i love the most, music.

this is going to be a hella hard choice to make.

"WE ARE GOING TO CELEBRATE!" my dad said.

"yes gray, take mare to the grocery store and buy everything she wants for this congratulatory party." my mom said handing me her credit card.

"and invite bentley, he's family also"

i was beyond ecstatic.

grayson and i went to the garage and got our raincoats before getting into our parents car.

"mare I'm so proud of you for getting into all those amazing colleges." my brother said looking at me.

"oh my god gray stop i might cry." he laughed and then started driving to the safeway near our house.

i think 5sos will be introduced next chapter and if they're not it's going to be the one after that most likely.
