			<description><![CDATA[ You know what feels right for you Meg. You&#39;ll make the best decision and everything will work out as it should.
<br>
<br>
And I agree with Holly! You tried, which is a lot more than most people are brave enough to do. I think you&#39;ve accomplished a lot, regardless of what
happens in the end.
<br>
<br>
Just make a decision and then make it happen. No matter what you choose. ]]></description>

you, b/c it&#39;s up to you, but I also know it helps to hear what others think sometimes.
<br>
<br>
Regarding Berklee - there&#39;s this guy we know who didn&#39;t graduate from there and he did okay. ;)

But regardless what happens, you have stepped out and taken on a major adventure that most people would have been too... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Bah, ok. Serious Rant:
<br>
<br>
It sucks that all this is coming right after such an awesome vacation, but I am finding out that I may not be able to finish at Berklee. In fact, I may be out
of here in a month.
<br>
<br>
Berklee raised their tuition 7% and changed their student loans so that I would have to pay off interest while I am still in school. If that isn&#39;t scary
enough, I also just found out that I have maxed out my borrowing potential already. And nobody told me. I don&#39;t... ]]></description>

Thanks for your sympathy, guys. We just got two more e-mails from the school administration, begging us for more tips on budget cutting. What a sad situation
our education system is in right now. :(

It just bums me out that these kids won&#39;t have what I had. And honestly, if I didn&#39;t have orchestra and choir and theater in high school... I would be
