check out the dates for "Princeton Previews" on the admitted students website. if you register before the deadline, the university will match you up with an undergraduate student to stay with.

And I'm going to the college that PtonGrad beautifully and poetically described. Unbelieveable.

At some point during my past two years at Princeton, my dad (an alum himself) came to visit. As we wandered through the junior slums and Blair Arch came into view, I mentioned that it was too bad that, after one lives in such a beautiful place for months at a time, one no longer notices the beauty. My dad smiled and said "I never took it for granted. Not once. Even my senior year I would look around constantly and think 'I can't believe how lucky I am to live here.'" I felt almost ashamed. How can anyone lucky enough to go to a really great and beautiful school like Princeton take it for granted like I have?

Thank you for this post. Here's to not taking it for granted.

^^^did you really take it for granted or were you just too busy to notice

it seems to me you were loving the beauty of the school (not taking it for granted) once you had time to relax and look around
