I love prefrosh - go class of 2012!!!!
"You guys think you have tough choices! Ha! Listen to this... I got into Harvard, UPenn, Yale, Brown, CalTech, Stanford, MIT, and Dartmouth. Unfortunately, I somehow got denied from Cornell, which I really liked, but I was in all likelihood overqualified. This was unfortunate."
I think its funny that people think that they are over/under-qualified to attend an institution of higher learning.
It is in my opinion indicative of the greatest ball droppery that the Ivy League and all other "top-tier" schools are guilty of. These institutions are all meant for higher learning and really getting an education. However a whole ass load of people just see these places as ways to further their own self interests while being allowed to be lazy.
While I have been in college I have encountered only a few types of people, most of them really shouldn't be here:
1- The kid who doesn't study/try because having a cornell degree will help write his own ticket. Studies have shown that GPA does not matter for non-technical fields (people who arent future lawers, doctors, engineers, scientists)
2- the kids who are all about pwn-ing the prelims (tests) and do not care about the actual material covered. Super uber common and really lame because these people go to great lengths to cheat or just cram for the test just to forget it later.
3- The kids who are all about partying- really? that didnt get old for you? I mean im all for drinking but doing it 2 or 3 times every weekend just gets boring. let me give you a basic run down of what happens:
first you get your hand marked at some lame frat, then you go inside and find that it is hot as balls in there because they have approx 300 people in there, get some shitty beer, get drunk, hookup, repeat - idk me personally, im all about drinking alone in my room, listening to some miley cyrus, jerking it and then crying to sleep- but thats just me.
4-the kids who are all about the political importance of the latest hip candidate and how he will change everything- i hate you
5-stoner kids, mostly fit into 1 and 3 but use pots and cracks to get high on life
Im really just saying i do not understand why people spend all this money to go to college if they dont even like learning things.
I suppose i didnt think out a valid argument, just pointed out some people who i dont like
but still... i dont like them
suck on that!!
