"Hey, Sarah! Did I get any mail?" I ask my roommate as I walk in the room.

"Um, ya. Something from some company downtown. It's on the table," she replies.

I walk over to the table and pick up the envelope that she set aside from all her pen-pal letters. I look at it, hoping it's a letter from Cenica Records. I've been waiting for anything from them for weeks.

"Sarah, do you know what this is?" I say, trying to hold my excitement and fear in.

"No, I just looked to see who it was for."

"This is a letter from Cenica Records. Remember, the people I auditioned for to perform at their big party," I say as I see the confusion on her face.

She runs over, now understanding the importance, as I turn to open it. I'm so excited and scared, I'm shaking. I open the envelope with trembling hands:

Congratulations, Corinne. You

have been selected to perform

at our black and white

masquerade ball on

Please come by the studio by

Thursday, July 19, 2012

to discuss the details.

Sincerely,

Travis Cenica

I am barley able to finish reading the letter I am so excited. I am going to sing in front of people for money. Something I have never done before. I am so excited I am literally jumping off the walls. It's late, so I figure it's a good time to go to sleep. I need to calm down, though. Maybe if I watch some TV. I turn on the TV and flip the channels. I stop on ICarly because it's a rerun of the IGo One Direction episode. About halfway through the show I fall asleep.
