Conversation:

A: Check this out. I just got accepted to grad school.

B: That's fantastic. What a great feeling that must be.

A: That's for sure. I'm walking on air right now.

B: Well, you worked really hard, so you deserve it.

A: Thanks. When I show my dad, he's going to be ecstatic.

Notes:

被录取可以说"be accepted to"或"be admitted into"

"walk on air"表示“洋洋得意”或“飘飘然”。

"You deserve it."表示“你值得拥有”，或者“你活该”。

ecstatic形容高兴，心情好。比excited程度深。
