and it's so easy when you're cynical....
From the Trinity Student Bulletin:
"Fall 2005/Winter 2006 High School Planner
Freshmen/Sophomores:
~Meet with your guidance counselor to discuss classes and available activities. (aka, have the guidance ladies tell you why you won't EVER have a chance of getting into college based on your apparent utter stupidity.)
~Plan which classes to take for the next four years. Challenge yourself to take more difficult classes. (if you don't plan ahead for your retirement fund now, you will DIE!)
~Join clubs and activities in your area of interest. Take leadership positions when possible. (you can either join a prestigious, well funded Trinity Sports Team!!!!!!!!, or one of those other, insignificant, underfunded clubs where all the non-athletic losers congregate. but of COURSE Trinity's proud of all of those....other...teams...
now what were they? oh! and shoving people out of the way and not listening to their opinions looks GREAT on college applications!)
~Start to build relationships with some of your favorite teachers, counselors, and activity advisors who can write recommendations and serve as mentors later. (sucking up gets you into college. suck up. and do it frequently. we accept money. stick it in the tissue box in the guidance office.)
~Talk about saving for college with your parents/family. (you know those two people who just bought you a new farari? ask them. they can probably BUY you the college itself.)
~Search for scholarships on www.fastweb.com. (for those of us not oh so lucky enough to have parents who wastefully throw money on us at our every whim, try for a scholarship. then maybe you'll be able to get into college using just your sheer willpower and smarts! imagine that....-_-')
hope you enjoyed that, cause i sure did. (wide, evil grin.....)
