[quote=Anonymous]I gave her some of the FUN stuff for college (not utilitarian stuff). Like if you can get her to choose any room decorations now or "collegey" gear. I wanted her to get excited, since the application process is tiring and stressful. I also gave her two college guides with sound advice, written in teenspeak. Here is an example: "The Her Campus Guide to College Life: How to Manage Relationships, Stay Safe and Healthy, Handle Stress, and Have the Best Years of Your Life." The summer before going away, I noticed how often she read that book. I think it reassured her, without her having to let me know what she was worried or felt uninformed about.[/quote]
