Hope you enjoy!

Finally! The weekend! It has been an exhausting week at school since there is just one week of high school left! Then the summer and then I am out of Forks! Good bye rain, hello sunshine! Now I don't know exactly what college I want to go to but I do know I am going to move away from this crazy wet weather! If I never see rain again I will be happy. Ok enough day dreaming, I have to get out of this bed and check the mail for letters from some colleges.
Ouch! Ah, nothing wakes you up like stubbing your toe on the door jam. That is soooo gunna leave a mark. Time for breakfast!
"Mom, Dad?" Hmmm no answer, I wonder where they could be. Mom usually makes me a huge breakfast on Saturday. Oh! Theres a note…
Bella,
Your father and I went out for the day
For our anniversary and we will be back tonight around 10
There is enough food in the fridge for the day
Have fun
Love mom
Oh god! I forgot their anniversary! Ihave to go get something for them. Well I guess I'll run to the store after breakfast but what to have, what to have? Yes pancakes!
I was in such a rush when I left for the store I almost killed my self on the drive way. I don't even wear heels or anything dangerous but I can always find something to trip on (hint, hint my on two feet).
These are the summer days when I really wish my ancient truck had working ac. I swear it must be 100 degrees outside and 110 degrees inside my truck!
I was surprised to see that Port Angeles was not that busy for a Saturday. At least now I won't have to put up with a lot of people. My total trip took about one hour and I found beautiful white roses, a glass blown vase, and a box of homemade chocolate covered strawberries for my mom and dad. I really think they will enjoy my gifts because a white rose was the first flower my dad gave my mom and it has a significant meaning to them.
When I got back home it was a little after one so I decided to finish reading Wuthering Heights for the millionth time. Hey, what can I say, I can't resist a classic!
Beep beep
New Text From Lee x)
Hey! Going to practice, did you check your mail yet?
Lee x)
Oh, yeah I completely forgot! "Gruuuu!" Whoa I guess that's my stomach's way of saying "Feed me! Feed me!" The mail will have to wait!
Even though I am worn out, I think I'll make roasted chicken, salad and mashed potatoes so tomorrow when me and mom go out to the furniture store, dad won't have to order out.
The smell in the kitchen right now is so mouth watering that if that chicken is not done soon I am going to eat all of the mashed potatoes!
Well now that I stuffed my face and cleaned the kitchen from top to bottom, I think I should go outside to FINALLY check the mail! Hmmm, bill, bill, junk, magazine, and WHAT?!
"Ahhhh!" Yes, I, Isabella Marie Swan just squealed! I, at least have a pretty good reason for my sudden outburst. I just opened my mailbox and inside found a letter from NYU, A.K.A the college I worship on a daily basis.
I was so excited I just tore the letter open instead of doing it neatly and calmly. I found out I got accepted to NYU hence the squealing. Now, to say I am excited would be an understatement because the letter almost caused a heart attack on my part.
I have never thought of myself as someone who would make it anywhere because I was always in the shadows. I was never the pretty girl in school or the smartest in the class and we all know I was never athletic! But I guess NYU saw something and I am so happy they did.
Lee right now, is my favorite person on earth! If it was not for her I would not have filled out the forms for NYU to even be considered! Now don't get me wrong, I absolutely and completely want to go to NYU but it is across the country. I was really nervous about the distance and me being alone but Lee assured me I would do great so I said "What the heck? Get me a pen!"
Now breaking the news to my parents was a wee bit different. They were very apprehensive about NYU but I re-assured them and they agreed to it even though I already mailed the forms. Hehehe.
Whoa, getting a little caught in the past now are we. Ok back to the present!
"Oh. My. God." I was speechless and I bet I look like a freak infront of my mailbox right now but I don't care. I am going to NYU and am going to become a journalist! Ok, first thing first, I have to tell somebody! I have to call Lee now! I would usually call my parents but its their anniversary so I shouldn't bother them at dinner. Now, where's my phone?
Ring, Ring, Ring
"Hello?" A very tired lee answered.
"Wakey, wakey, its only 9 o'clock!"
"Sorry. But some people have two hours of grueling practice"
"Oh pity party for Lee, but I have important news to share!"
"Oh! Spill!" That got her attention!
"Ok, well you should be proud, I squealed! But that is not even the best! I GOT ACCEPTED TO NYU!!!!"
"AHHHHH! Bella that's amazing! I knew you would get in!"
"Thanks. And thank you for practically filling out the forms yourself! If it wasn't for you they would not even know about me!"
"No prob. I am just so happy you got in! Oh. My…" the phone hit the ground all of a sudden.
"Uhmmm Lee? What happened?"
"AHHHH! BELLABELLABELLA!!!!!!"
"What Lee????"
"I…GOT…ACCEPTED…TO…USC!" Oh yeah, Lee has a passion is for film school and has made me be in a few films she made. Those movies were terrible but hilarious to make.
"OMG! Lee that's so good!"
"Yay! We are going to our dream colleges!"
"Yeah, we soooo need to celebrate."
"I couldn't agree more. I know exactly what to do. I am inviting the whole senior class for a party at my house for graduation/us getting accepted to our dream colleges."
I know what you are thinking, no way can the whole senior class fit in someone's house, but oh are you sooo wrong. Lee's parents are super rich so they own a mansion and the senior class for Forks High has about a little less than 90 students.
"As much as I hate parties I think I am with you on this one."
"Oh Bella, Mama's so proud!" Lee always wants me to party but I hate the attention so she always has to make me go. Lee used to say "One day Isabella, One day you will want to go." I guess she was right.
"Haha. Very funny, now onto something serious. What do you think my parents will say?"
"I don't know about that one Bella, but you have to stay strong and don't take no for an answer."
"I know, at least I have like, one hour before my parents are home."
"Yeah. If I were you I would relax before they come home and make sure they don't think it's unsafe or anything like that."
"Yeah, thanks. Well I think I should get right onto that."
"Good luck!"
"Thanks."
"Tah-Tah."
"Kisses!"
Call us weird but that's how we end all of our phone calls no matter what.
I think the best way to relax now is to take a nice hot shower. The hot water on my body relaxes all my stressed out muscles and is very soothing. I try to keep this heat for as long as I could but was short lived once I stepped out of the bathroom. Once I was done changing I heard the door open and my dad shout "Bells?".
"Up here dad! Hey mom, dad how was your day?" I wonder what they did today.
"Great! How was yours?" The BEST EVER CUZ I GOT ACCEPTED TO NYU! But I want to give them their gift first.
"Awsome! Wait here. I have a surprise." On my way running to my room to get their gift I tripped once and twice on the way back. Nice one Bella!
"Whoa there. Slow down. We don't need a trip to the ER now do we?" I knew they heard my trips, I mean who wouldn't!
"Ah dad, always one to crack the jokes. Now, here is your gift, I hope you like it." I really wanted the attention off me and I could feel my cheeks heating up.
"Oh, Bella the flowers and vase are beautiful and I bet the strawberries are delicious!" My mom was very excited for this so I can only wonder what she will be like when I tell her about NYU.
"Yes Bells, thank you very much." My dad truly was a man of few words.
"That's good because now I have really exciting news!" I couldn't contain myself any more.
"And what's that Bella dear?" My mom really had no idea why I was jumping with excitement.
"I GOT ACCEPTED TO NYU!" I practically burst right there.
"That is so great Bells, we are very proud." My dad shows little emotion but I know he is very proud and happy for me.
"That's my baby! I knew you could get accepted!" My mom always believed in me no matter what I did and I know she will miss me but be very supportive.
"I am so excited! In a few months I get to be in New York!" Oh, that was probably not the best thing to say…
"Aw, Bella don't make me think about that yet! I am going to miss you too much!" Now my mom was on the verge of tears.
"Mom you will do fine! We can call and email each other plus you guys can always visit, just call first." I knew I would have to re-re-assure my parents because I am going to NYU no matter what.
"Ok, ok, today has been very busy and we are very proud of you Bells but I think we all need to get a good nights sleep." My dad was defiantly tired and was trying to get to his bed at all costs.
"I couldn't agree more dad. Night, love you." While saying this I yawned to prove my point further.
"Love you!" My parents called at the same time which made me giggle a little before falling into a wonderful dreamless sleep.
What do you think? Loved it or hated it?
