Been debating ever posting this but need a pick me up after a particularly bad couple of days at work.
My oldest offspring will soon be donning a blue and white uniform as a varsity athlete at Penn State - University Park. Fulfilling a life long dream of competing for PSU. Graduating senior / to be freshman. Preferred walk-on in the sport. (Trying to stay somewhat anonymous, mostly out of concern of embarrassing my oldest child with my previous and future posts).
I could write a volume about choosing to walk-on at one’s “dream school” over accepting scholarship money at lesser schools. We’re not rich; the money would have helped. It wasn’t a consideration.
And I decided what better way to visit 7x a year than to buy football season tix (end zone & upper deck
). (Already was and still am on the wait list for wrestling.)
