David's William and Mary application supplement
David made this collage when he was 18, as part of a W & M application. The assignment was to submit something that represents who you are. I thought it summed him pretty well. I particularly like the amusing basketball picture and the poem. The tree is one on Fowl River where Terry, David and Micah spent an afternoon swinging over the water and dropping in. And I like the cloudy Costa Rican surf and the Behind Blue Eyes part. And the all-american muscle. I liked it all, as a matter of fact. David decided not to go to W & M, which was a tough decision because he sure loved those doors on the Wren Bldg.! Talked about them all summer that year - big, solid, wooden doors that have been there for a couple of hundred years. He's getting ready to graduate from University of Texas in a few weeks and is glad he ended up going there. William and Mary has been around for almost as long as any other college in the country so it'll be there if he decides to go to graduate or law school, I suppose. (Not to turn everything around to be about Mom, but I am very upset that she moved right down the street from W & M and would've absolutely loved to take a history course or two but never got the chance.)
