Listen,  I have always wanted to do something with my life it's just that I find myself wanting to share my voice, be able to influence others to be better and I just don't know how and then you have these celebrities that are the same age as me and when you look at them it seems like they have the world at their feet and the impact they have on people's lives is just mind blowing. 

The other day my best friend and I were watching song covers on YouTube and it gave me an idea.

My name is Ophelia Stone

I'm eighteen years old. I currently live on the 8th floor of a dormitory building and until last night, I was your typical freshman student at UCLA, struggling to balance academics with her social life.

How could I possibly be any different overnight ?

Well It started with a video of myself singing Harry Styles' "Sweet Creature"; the daughter of the CEO of Wyatt Records found my cover and sent it to her dad.

Then things happened and now I'm just trying to process the fact that I had just received an email from his Secretary, Julie,  stating that they wanted to sign me as an artist.

I know- it sound ridiculous, stuff like this only happens in the books but then again this wouldn't be the first time someone got scouted from YouTube.

I was being asked to drop by their office and that they were going to send a few people to come and pick me up by the dorm I was staying at. 

Julie had asked for my address along with my number so I gave it to her via email.

Luckily I had no morning classes for today so I didn't have to worry about not being able to show up for class- I had to make sure that I was inside the campus by 2 pm or else I'd be late for my sociology class.

Around an hour later, Julie had called to tell me that the car was already waiting for me outside and that she was waiting for me inside.

I rushed outside my tiny dorm room and took the stairs - I dressed a bit better than I normally would, considering the fact that I live in t-shirt and sweats.

I did my makeup like how I normally would on a regular day.

I was able to get out the building within 5 minutes and saw the black van in front- the door flew open and a girl in her early 30's was gesturing for me to get in.

AN: I know it's really short but it's gonna get better I promise :)

Disclaimer: idk if there really is such a thing as "Wyatt Records" I just made it up for the sake of the story.
