<p>Once upon a time, long long ago, Psycho<em>Paroxysm walked onto this psychotic site called CC which regarded college and admissions. Psycho was considered very achieved and intelligent at Psycho's school, but this totally refuted that. Psycho started feeling dumb.
Psycho</em>Paroxysm was dead shocked and overwhelmed, for the "CCers" were talking about academics in their LEISURE TIME. They were going insane over a 2390 SAT I score and freaking out about 3.9 UW GPA's. And one kid thought his chances were ruined when he received an A-.
Then Psycho_Paroxysm found out they were part Dracula, for many of them only slept 5 hours a night. They droned away during the late hours studying and worshipping colleges.
RSI, TASP, they chanted. (Psycho never knew such prestigious programs existed) Then came the usual ritual of praying to the college gods and worshipping Harrrvaarrd, Princeton, Staaannfooord, and the like.
They're insane, thought Psycho. How the heck could they have any fun being academic drones?
Then came the strain of intimidating 4.0, 2400, I-cured-AIDS kids. And that was totally overwhelming.
So the days passed on, and the CCers continued worshipping the college gods, offering them achievements, and sacrificing their sleep.
And before Psycho knew it, Psycho became a part of it. What used to be so insane was now so normal.</p>
