Whew! It's a lot of work isn't it? I for one need a break.
Here's a tip for move-in day. Plan your goodbyes to your parents someplace
off campus, like a familiar restaurant chain or at a local park. I know it was a big moment when I said goodbye to my folks the day I moved into my own lodge. It's nice to be away from all the commotion and have the moment to yourselves.
