The following morning I have a text message from dd. She has been cut by DEF and " I can't talk right now, I'm too upset." Well of course I am worried, so I try to call her but no answer. Finally during a lunch break, she calls to tell me that she is thinking of dropping out. She still has 4 houses but " DEF is where I really wanted to be, snif, snif." What about ABC, I ask. Oh yeah, they are still there on her card. Good Lord, I say to her, stay in, you are still on their list, it will work out. Long story short (ha-ha) she hangs in there, accepts an invitation from ABC, goes away on their retreat and has a ball. The following weekend, I go up to see my dd. While in her dorm, I spy her little notebook that she had during rush. She and I are looking over it and on the first three days she had listed ABC as her "OMG they are awesome, I could so see me here, etc" What happened, I asked her. Here you are loving them and suddenly you are wanting DEF? She just smiled sheepishly and admitted that she was wrong. Yes, I wrote down the date! Anyway, please hang in there PNMs! If you still have options, please don't overlook someone just cause you have formed an opinion based on hearsay. You will find your match, you will make friends, and you will have a bond that will last your lifetime. And moms...let your daughters find their way. You have raised them well, they will make the right decision for them.
