The phone vibrated in Jessica's hand. An email. An interview! Her heart did a little flip. She felt a lightness, as if gravity had lessened. She was going to show them what she could do.

She laughed out loud, a sound that she barely recognized. She felt an urgent need to share the news. She called her parents, her voice bubbling over with excitement. She wanted to shout from the rooftops.

She started to plan her interview outfit in her head, envisioning herself in each ensemble. Her energy seemed to fill the room, bouncing off the walls. She felt absolutely unstoppable.
