Sorry the formatting was off! Not sure why that happens but thanks to puja314 for the review and head up about it!
"Riley, we've visited at least eight different colleges, if not more. Why don't you just make a decision?"
It's the speech she'd heard at least ten times since the day Maya accepted her scholarship.
"I don't know Mom. It's where i'm going to be l bing for the next four years, it has to be perfect."
"Perfect is not going to cut it anymore sweetheart, you need to choose."
"Mom, it's not even December yet, I'm fine."
"It didn't take Josh this long to decide."
"That's completely different"
"And how's that?"
"Because, he's a boy. Besides, Dad has practically shoved NYU down his throats since the day you guys moved here. He came for an interview when he was a junior, do you think he ever really questioned where he was going to go at all? Did he even look at anything else?"
Realizing she was fighting the wrong battle, Topanga quickly switched back to their previous topic, "Do you at least have an idea of where you'd like to go?"
"I told you already, I like Johns Hopkins and I really like West Virginia Wesleyan"
"Riley, you can't base your college decision off of a summer visit to a desolate campus with a cute tour guide."
"That's NOT why I like it! I'm serious"
"It's so far away though."
"It's my choice!"
"What if something happens and you need to come home?"
"Mom, it's West Virginia, not California. It's only seven hours I could get in a car and be home before the day had even ended; it would be fine."
"Well you better start figuring that stuff out"
"Like I said mom, it's only NOVEMBER, I'm fine. I've got it all under control. Now can we please talk about something else?"
I know it's a really short chapter but I think this part should stand alone
