Sydney received a letter.  It was an admission letter from one of the colleges that they applied for.
Hey, I have some great news to report today! You seem cheerful. I'm all ears. What happened? I applied for admission at a state university and just received an acceptance letter. That's wonderful. You've worked really hard on your academics and it's paid off. I'm happy that my efforts have been rewarded. Now I can continue my studies at a reputable higher education institution like this one. I'm happy you're doing well. I still haven't received an acceptance letter.
