Eh…I have a CC acct but not a facebook. :p</p>
<p>I’m a straight A student and I got a 2100 on my PSAT (I’m thinking it’ll go up a lot by the time I get my first SAT results Thursday…and by ‘thinking’ I mean ‘PRAYING’) but I definitely agree with the people before who were saying how inferior CC makes you feel. I’m such an overachiever…I researched the Ivy Leagues in 5th grade to decide which college I wanted to go to. I decided on Cornell and have been aiming for that or obviously any of the others for so many years now. I’m so happy to have a site full of other obsessive perfectionists!</p>
<p>^
- 2100… that sucks. And PSAT only goes up to 240
- Ew Cornell? That’s as crappy as like, Duke, or Uchicago.</p>
<p>I’m just messing with you, don’t worry.</p>
<ol>
<li>When you go “I’m bored on this Spring Break night at home” and then you decide to go on CC to relieve boredom.</li>
<li>When CC becomes one of the ways you procrastinate because you have Senioritis.</li>
<li>When you go on CC as a way to keep yourself entertained while waiting for your boyfriend to finally get online.</li>
</ol>
<p>…I just did all three of those, haha.</p>
<p>When your nightmares involve finding out that your parents use CC as well.</p>
<p>^ Haha yeah. And they discuss their D or S’s performance and you realize they are talking about you.</p>
<p>you know you’re a CCer if you checked this thread for the third time already.</p>
<p>you know you’re a CCer when you check every 10 secs if someone has replied to your thread…</p>
