8.War started in our house in late July with a month to go before my first day of college.It was a battle of wills over what college I was to attend.Mom wanted me to attend a famous
(36)Cschool,and I wanted to go to a small writing college.Every night for two weeks,we argued,shouted and gave (37)D treatments until both sides went to bed with regrets.
It was mostly my (38)C.Since my junior year of high school,I had(39)Bat being a nurse.I took all the science courses,and even worked as a (40)Bin my town's local hospital.My (41)A was to help the sick and be superwoman to the world.
Yet,(42)Dgraduation and college neared,it all changed.Treating the sick was
(43)B,but not what I was meant to do for the (44)Aof my life.I could picture myself in hospitals,making rounds,and taking(45)C,but I couldn't picture myself happy.It wasn't the (46)A I wanted.
Then,I realized I had been creating and writing stories for as long as I could (47)D.I loved it,and writing was what I had been doing as a (48)B.It was going to be my career.And it had to be.
On August 1st,Mom and I sat down at the dinner table and I told her that she had every(49)C to choose where to spend her money,just like I had every right to decide where I wanted to go to school.If it was her choice not to (50)A any of my college education,then I would take a year off to work and earn money so I could go to the college I wanted.
Standing by my decision to be a writer had(51)D my firm belief to my mom.Finally we were at (52)A,and she decided to support me,which (53)Dthe world to me.
Before that time,I had never stood up (54)B my parents on any major decision.Choosing which college to attend (55)C me to become a separate and complete adult.I am now finished with my first semester as a Professional Writing major and I cannot wait to see what comes next.
