Going to New Orleans

Congrats! :clap_1:

I got accepted to Tulane Law, found out just yesterday. However, I have kept it all to myself and my mom and dad. I am ready for it though. Hey, I can just jump on I-10 and I will be in Sowal in not time.

CONGRATULATIONS bsmart! When do you start? We are very proud of you! Our little bsmart is growing up! Seems like just yesterday we were reading your first post on SoWal. Now you're off to Law School! :clap_1:

Congratulations bSmart. Now let the fuNN begin. :clap_1:

Yes, we really encouraged our daughter to go to our alma mater, Tulane. I think she would have also enjoyed being such an easy commute from SoWal. She also had an academic scholarship. But it was sort of hard to turn down the opportunity to go to MIT. Socially she would have had more in common with the Tulane kids. They study hard and party hard.

I'd be a little nervous about her being there now, though ... NOLA was sketchy (crime-ridden) before Katrina, although someone told me that most of the sketchy people have left.

Thank you all! I will start in August 2006--whoa! that's this year, I am really nervous and excited about it. I have never lived more than 30 miles from home before!

My brother has been trying to prepare me for some of the stuff I'll see when I go this weekend. He said its definitely not pretty. He's working in the ghetto right now. I'll take Mrs. LL's camera and I'll post some pics when I get back.

I heard they have almost a zero crime rate now.

You'll be fine! Besides, you have all your surrogate Mom's on the board. We are only a post away! You'll make a great attorney!

Please do, LL, I'd really like to see those. I saw just started bus tours through the area a week or so ago. I have mixed feelings about that... Though if it moved people enough to help in some way I'm all for it.

Yes! And in return, we'll be asking for free legal advice! :lolabove:

New Orleans is one of the Funn's favorite stomping grounds! :clap_1:

LL, I believe I saw at Walgreens a disposable digital camera, (like those Kodak disposables) if you wanted to take a disposable and not risk taking Mrs. LL's 35 mm. Of course, I may have just dreamed that I saw one, sometimes that happens to me. ;-)

I'll be armed. And if that doesn't work, I'll run them over.
