You shwood kids are smaaaty pants

I don't know what my issue is, but lately I have been disappointed with the intellectual level of the students at Drexel. I know it's because I am with all of the Design kids during class and Drexel makes special "Design Courses," because they feel as if us artsy kids cant handle the real material and that we didn't make it to Drexel because of our grades...well I did. It's really hard finding interesting people here, really hard. It bothers me that the average for a physics midterm was a 68 and it was easy as shit, well thats because no other school requires physics apparently. It also bothers me that everyone in my English class just does not know how to write. I am just...disappointed.

With all of this said, I am thankful for the education I received at Marshwood for the very first time.

Have a fabulous night

We teech reel gud heer. Me thinx dat you smaht two.

But, i would say, you are not the only one hwo is mildly shocked by the ease of college. I hear it more often than not. Here is a great article about how high school actually creates this let-down for college kids.

College really is so easy. I have basically no work, all my tests are cake, and I don't even have to pay attention in class.

My vending machine just gave me a free king sized bag of peanut M&M's and I'm so happy.

Why do you think people love it so much? A little hard work scattered between the easy stuff, endless fun and (few) obligations.
