A Much-Needed Reminder

This is a blog written for the New York Times in which a mother looks at the humor of the college search process. If only I could see things from  her point of view. I've visited two colleges, and I've got three more over spring break.
 For some reason, it's beyond stressful. Maybe it's missing school constantly. Maybe it's straining to know every detail about a school. Maybe it's the pressure to live up to expectations, or 'reach my full potential', or whatever you want to call it. Maybe it's that this is the first very real, very large decision I get to make. It's about my future, and my money, my education, my faith, my friends, my life.
Okay yeah. Maybe I do need to chill.
