Thanks everyone! Raising the glass of bubbly… And thanks for the chocolate cake, madbean! I think it’s time to open a USC virtual lounge…

sequoia - I know what you mean about an adventure that’s a little too extreme. I watched the movie a couple weeks ago, and had a tinge of worry. But then I asked S if he’d like to go pick fruit in Eastern Washington this summer/fall, just to get in touch with a different kind of life, and he was quick to say no. Relief!

puzzled - I so appreciate the recommendation for Where There Be Dragons. I’d just recently read a bit about it, and it’s good to hear from someone with first-hand experience. The spring thing is definitely weird, but at least at USC my S will not be behind when he starts, thanks to their generous AP policy. He’ll have 24 units if all goes well next month. His school doesn’t have AP classes, but the kids self-study for the exams, and he’s taking 3 in May.

cc411 - thank you again for all the support you’ve offered our little wannabe Trojan family this year. I have to say that this is the forum I’ve enjoyed the most - lots of incredibly nice people. It’s so helpful to hear from veterans like you and Georgia Girl when we have questions.

Oh, and when I said I looked forward to meeting the moms, I realized I was leaving out the dads. Yikes! I don’t think there are many regulars who are dads, but I do hope to meet them too, especially Groovy Geek, whose D had a similar college list to my son’s.

Cheers, everyone - it sure feels good to finish this chapter!
