my friends are going nuts applying for college.. it's everywhere i turn. i guess i'm watching from a safe distance. why is there a stigma about community colleges? it's not like slacker school... it's college, the same classes as anywhere else, but it's cheap. and close. i've known too many people who got straight a's in high school and went away to college thinking they were hot shit.. then they flunked out. i don't want to be a statistic. i'm not hot shit. i know i'm capable of getting into college, i'm automatically accepted into a uc since i'm in the top 4% - the "eligibility in the local context" thing. (or i would be, if i had taken the required subject tests.) but i'm not ready to get away from it all, i want to work at kvhs, i don't want to pay rent.. i don't want everything to change.
