Just checking in to say that my dear son has mailed in the “yes to USC SCA” form! I’m very happy that he has decided and feels really good about this adventure. I’m also looking forward to meeting the CC USC moms at some point, and maybe even some of the students, with any luck!

Now we need to figure out what happens between now and January. Suggestions are welcome! The list so far:


be a game tester for Nintendo or Microsoft (reputed to be an awful job, but strangely appealing to a gamer like my S who is intrigued by the idea of earning a weekly paycheck)
go to a language school in Mexico (S studied French, but wants to learn Spanish because he’s crazy about certain directors - like Alfonso Cuoron)
go to University of Alaska and get some GE’s out of the way (“Into the Wild” is one of his fav books/movies, so he’s interested in Alaska. Mom is interested in him living in a dorm instead of a bus in the wilderness, hence the U of A idea)
some sort of internship, but he is not ready to move to LA in order to do that, so it would have to be in Seattle.
maybe NOLS or some other sort of adventure travel program


I’ll keep you posted…
