The tears started to flow as I felt my dreams disappearing. “We are sorry to inform you that you have not been accepted to Berklee.” So many thought came to mind. “Why didn’t I get in?” “Who can I talk to?” “Why me?” “What am I going to do?” I stopped thinking, and disappointment in myself settled in. “You could have done better.” “You should have practiced more.” “You should have been more likable.” Other voices filled my head, “They don’t deserve you.” “You are talented.”
I wiped my eyes, looked up and saw those kind voices were my friends.
