Yes, I agree-- it's why I asked. DD seemed totally unfazed that the dean of the Honors College was treating her 14yo self with deference and knew her by name... was introducing her to the NAS-member dean of undergraduate research, etc. etc. at the preview/open house last month. She doesn't see how remarkable it is, because people have always sort of 'noticed' her like that. The only thing she really notices is that sometimes her peers seem unreasonably resentful or jealous of her, and she can't figure it out because she didn't "do anything to them."


So yeah, I can see her going "Oh, yeah-- that'll be cool. I guess." I know she'd love it while she was doing it, and all, but 'excitement' might be overstating things at the outset, YK?




LOL about the apartment sublease. grin Kids!!
