July 29, 2021 12:20am I just finished applying for the college I've been wanting to go to ever since the 8th grade "K-Arts" but there was only one problem, I would have to move there. Which it South Korea. Well it's not much of a problem moving there because I have the money for it from the three jobs I have, but it's more of a problem telling my parents! I just turned 17 and what parents would let there 17 year old daughter move all the way to South Korea, that's not even old enough to buy a house?! So I guess I would have to wait till I actually get in to tell them. I'm sure they'll be proud I got in to the college I've been wanting to go to, but not proud I'll be moving and leaving everyone behind.
The next day I got to hear from the college, they accepted me!! I was so jubilant, like you wouldn't believe it. I was screaming into my pillow of excitement because I didn't want to be loud. But I guess I still was. My mom comes into the room all curious, asking me what happened. I guess I was to surprised and excited that I forgot about them and that I would have to tell them. So I just sat there silently and thinking what I would tell her. So I thought of something fast. I told her " there's a sale going on at H&M." I said with a nervous voice and a slight smile. My mom smiled and said "shout, I would be screaming too if I found out there was a sale at my favorite store." Then she left me room and closed the door behind her. When I realized that I would have to tell my parents, it just ruined my whole mood and put me in a depressed moment, when I was done being depressed, I thought to myself "I'll wait till dinner to tell them."
A few hours pass by and my mom calls me for dinner, I enter the kitchen and go straight to the sink and wash my hands before grabbing a plate. I put my plate of food on the table getting ready to sit down. I thought I would wait a few minutes before telling them so I could think of how to tell them. 17 minutes go by and I thought it was time. I get ready to open my mouth but no words came out. I guess I was to scared to tell them, that's why my words got stuck in my throat and won't come out my mouth. I know I'm gonna need to tell them someday, but I guess today wasn't the day. When I finished with dinner I go to my room and saw I got a message from the college and I prayed they didn't change their minds. I clicked on the messages and read.
