<p>as in not climbing mt everest or snorkeling off the coast of hawaii or living it up in las vegas?</p>
<p>we are human beings
we have free will
why are you worrying about college and not enjoying yourself?
more to the point, what is the point of this all, money doesn't correlate with happiness unless you make under 50 k a year. and none of us are ever really happy anyway so why bother with the rat race.</p>
<p>I could ask you the same.</p>
<p>Because I care about my life and my future.</p>
<p>for teh lulz.</p>
<p>no seriously, i just like pwning nubs at everything. its why I try so hard, so I can gain pleasure from owning others. also i like learning, solving the questions of life. the theory of everything.</p>

<p>i personally do it out of inertia because it is the only life i have ever known and it is the only life i shall know</p>
<p>college confidential's theme is grey like the grey bleakness of high school life</p>
<p>with occasional yellow for exciting points like getting into your colleges
and blue for when you get rejected</p>
<p>Everest and Hawaii cost a crapload of money, and I care not for Vegas. Age prevents me from being recognized as an adult, so I can't really travel much. I like learning, too, so it's not as if I'm wasting my time...</p>
<p>Oooh, and one more thing, I'm actually "really happy," so I dunno where you're getting at with that. Mebbe I'm not "one of you?"</p>
<p>after i get into a good college (check), get into a good med school, and get a good job, i'll go live it up in vegas.</p>
<p>happiness = a temporary chemical imbalance
it's the time between when you solve the problem and when you find the mistake
it's the time between sisyphus's stone being at the top of the hill and it falling to the bottom
you have to work to be happy and then the negative feedback mechanisms in your brain take it away from you and leave you wanting more so nobody is ever really happy</p>
<p>Vegas sucks.</p>
<p>True story.</p>
<p>I'm here so I can make more than 50k a year. :)</p>
<p>Because I want to get into a good college which will give me the best education I can get in my field where I will be happiest. Sure, things will happen, but I will have alot more happiness in my given field with a great educational background on it than if I were to go to the community college to get my degree and know little to nothing about my field.</p>
<p>First off, I snorkel/surf/body board off the coast of Hawaii every week, and I'm still here worrying about my future and putting a lot of effort into getting into a good college.
Second, I'm doing all this so that I can make a difference; that's been my goal in life since 6th grade.</p>
<p>you're lucky. i wish i lived in hawaii :D</p>
<p>procrastination</p>
<p>I should be playing Pokemon right now.</p>
<p>because I'd rather not be doing homework</p>
<p>...because.</p>

<p>And anyway, why are YOU here posting this instead of going to Hawaii? Not like we all don't have enough money to buy ONE plane ticket. Just go?</p>
