Alas Cornell is not my dream school

Cornell is in the middle of nowhere. It took us 4 1/2 hours to get there, with about 3 hours of mooing cows, pastures with occasional red barns, and horses (and ONE person that we spotted outside in the three hours). The "town" surrounding it is nothing more than a multitude of restaurants with the occasional off-campus dorm or frat house.

I'll admit the college itself is pretty. However, the town is so small, Cornell students comprise 2/3 of it. And it's 4 hours away from CIVILIZATION. Not from like... cities even. From PEOPLE and NORMAL LIFE. All Cornell has is COWS.

Absolutely unacceptable.

I did get really really comfy pants from them though.

The bastards don't look at the sat writing section. AH HOW I HATE COLLEGES THAT DO THIS. They should look at it. We had to take it. WHY DON'T THEY LOOK AT IT?!

Stupid colleges. Just my luck... when colleges look at the 3-part sat score, my score might have qualified me for scholarships or something, but OH NO not a 1460... that's not even a 1500!!!!

During the duration of my visit, I was like.. well, this is nice.... look how quaint... GOD I WISH I WAS IN NY OR BOSTON

I think I would rather give up Cornell's ivy leaginess just to have a city nearby.
