Left deardaughter #4 at her new school yesterday. As an incoming freshman she has to pass a three week writing and thinking seminar before actually signing up for her classes. She was all excited on GTalk last night. Apparently they have some opera class that puts on an opera and everyone in the class can participate. This year it is Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, not exactly high up on my list of fascinating operas, but I suppose most colleges are pretty limited as to what operas they can actually do. Though come to think of it, I saw the American premiere of Shostakovich's opera The Nose at an American school and the Nose IS high up on my list of fascinating operas.
I digress, as usual.
I'm a little concerned about the whole opera thing and something about the girls in the dorm dressing up in costumes to go see The
Rocky Horror Picture Show. Also her boyfriend changed schools so he could be near her. Really this all seems kind of distracting when one should be concentrating on studying.
As a parent, I feel I have a responsibility to worry incessantly about everything.
