Fallen into Place

Many parents begin worrying about sending their children to college as soon as they are born. Kids, on the other hand, find their own time to begin considering their options. And, those options are plentiful, with private, public, in-state, out-of- state, liberal arts and technical schools all among the mix. It is not surprising that some teenagers would rather visit their Facebook page than begin thinking about life after high school.

But choosing a college does not have to be painful. It can actually be exciting. Approaching the matter openly will make the process rewarding and successful. A visit to a school guidance counselor early in their high school career can help students begin to plan for the future. The sooner students start looking ahead, the better their options will be when they start making choices.

Yesterday I went to tour my college once more. I leased my appartment for August 1st and can't wait till I get to move out of my parents house and into my appartment and finally become a hairstylist! I'm glad I finally have a plan for after highschool; and even though I may have chosen Facebook over searching for a college a couple of times; things have still fallen into place!
