The Admission Letter

There are moments in life that make you think "Oh snap...this will determine my entire future."

For me, the very first time I had that moment was when I was waiting around for the school of my dreams to let me know if I was admitted.

BYU.

I remember the sleepless nights, the constant need to google search "what are my chances of being admitted to BYU", the countless prayers, and the constant crying (maybe the last one is just because I'm an overemotional girl)...but still.  I tend to worry about everything and anything, so this was a complete overload.

Then the time came.  I refreshed the admissions page every two seconds for four straight hours.  My friend Zanna found out and I still hadn't.  My heart was beating so fast.  What if I didn't get in?  What would I tell my parents and friends that had all expected me to get in?  2 hours and 20 minutes later (jk I have no idea how long it took) but basically...what felt like an eternity later was when I saw the words "Admitted" pop up.

I could not believe it.

I screamed and jumped and cried and smiled and oh my word I was happy beyond belief!  I called everyone and their MOM!  Those overnighters I had pulled to finish homework had paid off and the Lord had granted my greatest wish...okay well one of them!
