Lol...same here! My daughter claims it's her long hair, but she also seems to do most of her choir practice in the shower. Great acoustics in there!
Sounds like hypo's going to take it right down to the May 1 deadline! Even after my daughter made her decision, she's still been saying things like, "I'm going to miss you", etc. I think the reality has sunk in that she'll be a long way from home. But, she also says she's really looking forward to it and she has no trepidation or second thoughts about her school choice. I actually think she's having a harder time dealing with the transition than I am (right now, anyway). The whole graduation season is hectic, too. She just told me this morning how stressed she is with everything that's going on...prom, AP tests, honor student dessert, senior banquet, blah, blah, blah. It all seems to accentuate the "leaving the nest" situation...lots of mixed emotions.
Where does hypo really want to go? If she wants Barnard and you can make it work, then I'd just try to help her feel good about that decision. Has she pulled out that pro and con list again, or is it just down to the financial aspects now?
