<p>Today I was opening a door that said "PUSH" on the bar and thought it had an A in front (AP USH). I was like, "History? What? I loved that class!"</p>
<p>I must have school on the brain. Has anyone else had embarassing geek moments like that?</p>
<p>Well, I was with my sister and her boyfriend, driving somewhere, and during my stay with them, I was entirely quiet and well, my sister decided to bring up the subject of colleges:</p>
<p>"Didn't you say you wanted to apply to Wellesley? Why do you want to go there?" And then, she continued with other remarks that highly irritated me because of their fallacy and ignorance. I refused to acknowledge any of her statements and at some point, she angered me so much that I practically screamed that I'd find out more info. at home to attest to my knowledge... (and this, Reader, was after questions about USNews Rankings and things about prestige and others and ahh!!!!) to which her boyfriend responded: </p>
<p>"Wow Ella, you were so quiet and now, you're so passionate!!" </p>
<p>:mad: :eek: :o :rolleyes:</p>
<p>I got so involved in a debate the other day I was having with a friend about whether .9~=1, that I started arguing really loudly while everyone was watching :(</p>
<p>no. that's why i come to cc. so i don't have strange academic outbursts :D</p>
<p>I was telling my friend about how funny the SAT II Chinese thread was and he just stared at me.</p>
<p>My worst "CC dork" moment came during a break at the June administration of the ACT. My friends and I were all taking the test, and we had just gotten done with the math section. While we were discussing how we each felt the test was going, I made this really funny joke about missing my TI-89. There was complete silence for a minute, and I had to explain to them that it was a calculator and what functions it had that a TI-83 didn't. After another pause, I explained to them that THEIR calculators were TI-83s. Needless to say, my joke was lost on them, and they still sometimes joke about my "calculator with a name."</p>
<p>CC is unhealthy. :(</p>
<p>Since stumbling upon this site one day, I feel like every high school decision I make is going to affect my college admissions.</p>
<p>Should I go out for lunch or stay in? What if I go out and I'm 5 minutes late, I'll get a tardy, it'll show up on my transcript, oh NO!! I better stay here :( ...and of course all my friends are going out. That kind of thing.</p>
<p>I've gotten over it now, but I think it's ridiculous how competitive this site makes you feel.</p>
<p>Yeah. I mean, I'm not even in highschool and I'm already worried about which broken rules will show up on my transcript. It's unhealthy in a way lol.</p>
<p>I like this thread:D Keep posting... I wish I had a funny embarrassing story to tell to but I don't :(</p>
<p>LOL Shadow. Good stuff.</p>
<p>LOL shadow although i wonder what the joke is. tell me let me see if i'm "cc" enough to understand it lol.</p>
<p>LOLLOLLOL SHadow!! you dork :)</p>
<p>I don't have reality dorky cc moments but ...I often have dreams about cc. about moderators warning me about language, and getting banned and stuff. DoveOfPeace!! You pop up in my dreams so much. And also, people on cc all against me, and everyones debating about stuff and they all blame me for it.. And after I wake up, I can practically hear my heart pounding with fear that I might get banned..</p>
<p>When I hear the letters "DD," I think of a mother talking about her daughter, not a bust size.</p>
<p>lol with the guys in my grade .. you will never forget that DD is for bust size</p>
<p>Lmao!!!!!!</p>
<p>The worst thing about it is that I can't remember the joke! I guess the trauma of the rest of the test must have banished it from my mind. :( I guess I'll never know if other people who have heard of TI-89's would find it hilarious or not. </p>
<p>PS. This is my 400th post! Life as a CC dork rocks! :D</p>
<p>I feel like I'm the source of information about college in my circle of friends now. CC has turned me into a freaking walking career/college center.</p>
