Thanks, everyone, for your comments! Funny how you come to think of some of your fellow CC-ers as “friends”, even if you don’t know their name, location, and sometimes even gender!

D and I talked about this last night; I think she will take your suggestions to heart and come up with another topic. One thing she told me which I didn’t know before is that the common app specifies subjects to write about - shows what a neophyte I am regarding this stuff. Did I write an essay to get into college? No recollection whatsoever.

Now let’s see if she actually carries through with the plan to get started. Planning to write over the summer is one thing; putting pen to paper (or fingertips to keyboard) is quite another.

Thanks again, wise friends.
