Parents of the HS Class of 2026 (Part 2)

Pretty good day over here. D26 now has a roommate group with 3 other students. She & the roommates/suitemates have figured out that D26 will end up with the earliest “pick your room” time, so D26 will end up being the person to pick the dorm & room and then the system automatically brings in the other people in your roommate group.

In the meantime, they’ve all now had a group video call together and they’ve been talking about all of the things that a parent would want their kids to compare notes on. Sounds like it’ll be a pretty multicultural group, which I am really happy about.

The dorm they’ll be in is suite-style, so 2 double-occupancy rooms will share 1 bathroom. The 1 bathroom has 2 sinks and long countertops for each sink + lots of bathroom storage. 1 of the suitemates said she’ll bring the shower curtain. I told D26 to offer to bring a Costco mega-pack of TP. :smiley: (you have to supply your own TP + clean your own bathroom in the suite-style dorm rooms)

For a short minute, they all thought that they’d be able to survive with 4 girls sharing 1 mini fridge. :rofl:

D26 seems happy and relieved to have made some connections already. I can tell that she’s getting excited.
