She texted me the other day to say she would be flunking out of college in about 4 minutes. I didn't think any amount of encouragement would help so I didn't even try. Turned out she passed her Geology mid-term and can save the freaking out for something else. I would love to go back to the time when failing a test was the end of life as I knew it. I don't mean to belittle the stress, I guess I'm just jealous. As hard as life is for her (and you) right now, enjoy the practice. As far as you not being around for a while, the speach should be a peice of cake for you. As long as you can speak english, you should be ok. You seem to have no trouble expressing yourself. Have fun w/ all this, don't freak and enjoy the ride. My daughter is experiencing her first college mid-terms and freaking out.
