hpa10, I agree. I told myself that I was going to stop coming on here, that it wasn’t healthy to be so involved on a forum that considers anything under a 700 on the SAT to be terrible. That was 2 months ago. I’m still here. lol
I agree with hpa10, a few months back I tried to stay away, but its very much like WoW (World of Warcraft), I just feel way addicted, and feel empty and like I’m missing out on some happenings when I’m disconnected.
funny how accurate her description was for me too…and here I thought I was the only one…whenever my s finds me at CC again he laughs at how addicted I am to it…but its a great way to channel all the college app and kids growing up energy and angst. as a single mom it gives me someone to talk to about some of the challenges and I appreciate all the online support
cc makes me sad sometimes… i don’t nearly have the grades as everyone else… it gets annoying when people complain about 2350s… oh well… i’m so addicted
Well it’s good to know I’m not alone! While I’m somewhat mystified by my attraction to CC, I believe the pull centers around my nervous energy as my family enters into our college obsession phase. Rather than go in the other room and nag my DS who is a junior and should be doing something productive (shouldn’t he??) but is instead IM-ing and goofing around on the computer, I can distract myself here. And at the same time, feel like I’m somehow helping, tho I truly wonder how much what I do from here on out will improve things (I see how I could make things worse, but make them better? not so sure). Also, experts at our fingertips is very helpful! So I see myself hooked for the next year at least…
