Well good morning everyone, and if you're thinking, why is a 20 year old waiting for acceptance letter? Well, like you know, I live on a farm. I had to take a year off from school to help out with the farm. Which is doing really well now. Even for my mom, she helps out getting local fresh food. Milk, and other dairy products from our farm, vegetables, from local farmers market and farms. Other things like that. But we make it work. Usually now the mail comes, and I still hope I get atleast one of the college/universities get back to me. I am usually the one who gets it. I walk towards the mailbox, once I get to it, and open it. I flip though to who gets what. I find one large envelope, and I see its addressed to me. From university of London,which Ivr always wanted to go there my whole life. Well since I remember going there when I was 10, my aunt and uncle live there. Part of me wants to open it right away but the other half wants to wait until dinner time.
             ~~later that day~~
"Hello I'm home!!" my mom yells after a long day at work. "Hey mom, how was work?" "You know, the usual, people talking loud, trying to get stuff done at the restaurant." "I got a letter from University of London today. I want to open it when we dinner tonight." "Okay, honey." edges usually like this when she gets done with work. Yet only working part time and being a manager. "Hey dad."  I said. "Hey Cathy, where's your brother?" "Oh he's been sleeping for an hour." I said. "Wake him up please, and help him get ready for dinner." Mom said. I nodded and went to my brother. "Cathy said that she has a letter from her dream university." mom said. "Well, okay. I hope she goes there, not only has a father who wants her to go. But I would like her to go back to school, even though it's in a foreign country."
     ~~Dinner time~~
I brought my letter with me and having Luke on my side. We sat down and either having dinner first or opening my letter first. "Your mom and I are happy for you even if you don't get accepted." "Thanks dad." I start to open the envelope. I statement to read and I began to cry. "I got accepted! Into my dream university!!!" "Congrats Cathy!" "Thanks guys."
You four started to eat dinner, picked up the dinner then put Luke down to sleep. "I have to let the Hayden and Ali know!"
