One of the best resources for college bound students in North Carolina is CFNC.org. CFNC’s tag line is “helping you plan, apply and pay for college” and they do just that. Students can register for an account by their freshman year in high school and they can track and keep their records organized, get notified of scholarships and grants they are eligible for; when it comes time to apply for colleges, they only need to complete their personal information once and the site will keep their ‘master’ application that they can then send to universities.

Anyone who has a college bound student knows how expensive it can get to apply for college. This is just to apply mind you, not the cost of attending college. There are tests that you have to pay for, and believe it or not, you have to pay to apply. The whole process can get quite expensive.

Thanks to NC Governor Easley, some North Carolina families can breath a little easier this holiday season. The press release below declares this week College Application Week. That means that between November 12-16, 2007, students can apply to most NC Colleges and Universities for FREE!

Today is the first day of NaBloPoMo, National Blog posting month. That means I will be posting everyday for the next 30 days. What do I get?

Well nothing but the satisfaction that I finished something that I set out to do. It kind of sucks that NaBloPoMo is in November, the kick off month to the holiday season. I managed to post everyday in November of last year, but boy, did it get hard around Thanksgiving! I had to resort to cajoling my daughter to blog for me just so I didn’t skip a day, including Thanksgiving Day when I usually spend all day in the kitchen and all night devouring what I cooked up. Yeah, I have lots to be thankful for

There is still plenty of time left, so if you want to get started posting everyday, go and sign up for NaBloPoMo.

Not that you even noticed, I’m publishing this post at midnight because I’m staying up until then to monitor another post for another blog. Right now, I just realized, I am flitting between seven blogs! Then I go and sign up for NaBloPoMo. Yeah, I know….go figure!

Just say Luciano and most opera lovers will immediately know who you are talking about. Say Pavarotti and even non opera lovers will know who you are talking about.

The world mourns the passing of of the great tenor, Luciano Pavarotti. Say what you will about his weight, but there is nothing more sexy or attractive in a man than one who has great talent and passion for his art. To one of my early crushes, whose  voice has kept me company many a night whether I had been happy or sad, thanks for the memories.
