As kids/families all around us announce college plans and acceptances...

We seem to be the odd ducks in that our HS senior still hasn't decided what he's doing. It's kind of fun, actually. (Although it is worth noting that Mrs. Fiji's view on that differs somewhat from me and Boy #2.) One thing we know for certain is that he will not be attending Virginia Tech -- because he didn't apply. That also seems to come as a surprise to a lot of our friends and neighbors. No angst at all on our side. Our second born has some very excellent options before him and we are excited about whichever path he chooses. It's just interesting to see the reactions we get when people ask about what he's doing. Anybody else have similar experience?

Not yet, but we may be in a similar situation in about 6 years.

You should have a kid enlisting into the military after college

Best thing that ever happened to my son was getting out of his comfort zone
