<p>Congrats,
CaliforniaCutie!</p>
<p>I hope everyone takes the holiday weekend to try to relax a bit. Yes, this is a stressful time for HS seniors, but gosh-- a thread that started as an attempt to wish you luck and a happy holiday season quickly became another battle over the ivies admissions procedures. Please, please, relax. For those of you whose apps are all in, there isn't a lot more to do, so stressing won't help. But yes, that comes from the parent of a college freshman-- I am not in the current sweatbox. But I have been in your shoes. It gets better, I promise.</p>
