<p>I know! :confused: I'd just put home since the campus address may change, and they can always use your princeton email if they need to send anything important.</p>
<p>Why is your campus address going to change?</p>
<p>Because you don't stay in the same room for 4 years. :p</p>
<p>Oh, duh! But I thought you'd have to renew the plan every year anyway?</p>
<p>Chichi, you're an army brat? (I am too.)</p>
<p>Well, former army brat. My dad retired two years ago, but we still get the same medical/dental/cheap-Roxy-and-Polo-from-the-NEX benefits. I remember having to deal with going to 11 different schools in 13 years and living in cruddy military housing back in the day...</p>
<p>retired dad -- check.
Tricare -- check.
tax-free polos -- check.
11 schools -- check. (yes, that exact number for me, too)
3 high schools -- check. (how Pton adcom made sense of that still mystifies me)
assigned to trailer park as temp housing -- check.
started facebook group for us brats -- check.</p>
<p>(Last one's a hint. ;-) Join up.)</p>
<p>I have fond memories of freshmen week... Responding to the ubiquitous "Where are you from?" question with a randomly chosen one of the following:</p>
<p>"Everywhere."
"Nowhere."
"I don't know."
Unsurprised but raucous laughter.
"Please don't ask; you'll regret it."
A weary enumeration.
"The Continental United States of France."
"Earth."
"I'm from New Jersey now."
"When do you ask?"
"Might as well be from your imagination, given how hard you've been hitting the liquor."
"The swamp."
"Originally?"
"Alpha Centauri."
"Athens. No, not that Athens. It's close to Florence. No, not that Florence." <a href="That's%20a%20joke%20on%20northern%20AL%20towns.">i</a>*
"Born in California. Lived there six weeks."
"No, no, where are YOU from? Then I'll just tell you if I've been there."</p>
<p>It is, at least, an icebreaker...</p>
<p>^ :D , yeah that would really jump-start a conversation!</p>
