By the way, I’m talking about schools in general (to someone possibly unfamiliar with American ones), and my Catholic schooling in particular. Anyway, even though I’m in college, where anything goes, I still value a little cleaning up for the start of the school year… hence my recent decision to get a haircut.

would be much more clever.

Are we still talking about colleges, Jordon? Oral Roberts or somewhere else? Or did your dad just like the sixth-grade flashback?

here’s a database of nerdy limericks.

Aargh I can’t stop thinking in verse! I was getting upset that my “Are we still talking about college” line didn’t scan.

But that’s not the kind of nerdy link you can post and not add a contribution. You’ve got to come up with at least one yourself. :-)

Finances are never fun, and they don’t get any easier after college. You might check out some frugal living blogs for some ideas on living on the cheap. I only wish I had the discipline and skills when I was your age – everything I know is through experience.

@Kate: Parents usually give their kids a haircut before they start school, at least to make them look presentable after the summer. Some schools require students to have certain hairstyles. I just got a haircut because I couldn’t remember the last time I had one.
