today i had my SSR interview. it went ok i guess. such random questions... "what ru most proud of? what do u want your professor to know about u?" i understand like college is a big thing and schools don't know about me or any other student. but the random questions... it all just really amuses/amazes me. i think most of this crap is overrated for the most part.
i think one person has given me an interesting/fun view on it: Greg.
i was talking to him and his theory is this: we're worrying our asses off over our grades and SATs and essays. so the best way to eliminate the stress is to do this: screw college and don't bother applying.
i was first like "LOLLERSKATES greg!" but then, i thought about it and it sorta started to make sense (i never thought i'd say this). i mean, srsly... when u apply for a job, ppl will look at the school u went to and be like "oh... that's good" or "interesting". but really, it doesn't matter where we go to College. it's more important what we do with whatever we learn in college. it seems like i'm speaking blasphemy, being an asian (indian) kid and not caring.
i care about where i do want to go, but its not like if i don't go to Berkeley or Harvard my life is gonna crash. but srsly... college doesn't define who we are. i have a few friends who went to UC davis and i know someone who went to USC. two of the davis kids, just finishing their undergrad, got pretty good jobs in intel and apple. the USC kid struggled to get out of undergrad. it seems really obscure, but yeah... it does happen. it doesn't matter that they didn't go to "good" places. they made do with where they were and what they had and got somewhere good. and the USC person? they're at Wisconsin State apparently, which sorta surprised me, but w/e.
meanwhile, i'll be stressing over my brown essays which are due in 22 days (thanks for reminders patricia)
