Do you have a Son or Daughter heading off to college this fall? I do and if you randomly ran across this article I must share that my baby girl, Alexis is a freshman at the University of Missouri also known as Mizzou, in Columbia this fall. Many of my friends have children her same age and one of them sent me the most amazing article pertaining to children that were born in 1990 and will be our future College graduating class of 2012 that is assuming they actually graduate in four years. The article was a real eye opener for someone my age considering that the majority of the poled young adults thought Watergate for example involves something to do with water.

Naturally, it made me feel rather prehistoric until I realized it confirmed that I still know quite a bit more that my daughter...WHEW! I will only share a few of my top picks on the list as one in particular hit home for me in a huge way considering Alexis had some editorial control over the pages of her yearbook allowing her the freedom of expression in a unique fashion on one page.

Check out my top Picks from the list that Class of 2012 grew up thinking.

It was said that Jay Leno was the ONLY Tonight Show host while they were watching late night NBC as well as Gas stations have never fixed flats but they do serve Cappuccino and I might add I have four within walking distance of my home. Another quite interesting fact is that they have never known Telephones that did not have caller ID and did not know that IBM ever made typewriters.

Beauty is something that Alexis knows quite a bit about because she has grown up with a mother that has always been a slave to fashion, trends & beauty. It would seem only logical to that she would need to make an everlasting fashion statement on the pages of her yearbook. Thus my favorite pick from the list is that "Girls in head Scarves have always been part of the social scene".Girls with HEAD SCARVES???
Yes! So picture a photo of my daughter and her best friend Bre adorning such fashionable head scarves on the pages of the Parkway South 2008 High School yearbook forever. You can only imagine the stir when those books arrived at the homes of young adults and parents alike stating that they had no idea that head scarfs were any type of trendy fashion statement.

So for all of you doubting Thomas'out there please take a look at the list that was published by the Beloit College in Wisconsin validating one of the hottest trends for those styled down girls born around 1990...Head Scarves.
