Discussion Expressing my love for college apps
I wanted to express my love for the college application process and how beautiful it is. While this is not the year I'm applying, just watching all my friends and classmates deal with these stressful situations is truly breath taking. The multiple elements of this entire process is what truly makes it one of the most important parts of life and I just wanted to express my love for the entire application process.
Watching people break down under stress and handling that stress, constant shit talking and gossiping among classmates, close friends and enemies is like watching a hollywood movie play in real life. The mixture of emotions the day the acceptances coming out, hearing who got in, who got waitlisted and who got rejected, it's like a listening to Tchaikovsky play in the background. Witnessing friends back stab each other, people go beyond limits to do whatever it takes to get in and even being astonished by the amount of money some kids will spend just to perfect their essays.
It's really a beautiful experience and I think it's the defining moment of adult hood as all the flaws with the application process are just the start to a harsh reality of real life where there are so many unfair things but nothing can be done. It's really exciting as it's also similar to a battle ground, where the strongest will survive, similar to how in the application process only the best of the best will get in. Like even though the application process has its flaws it's just the definition of how the smartest and most prepared will get in, while everyone else is cooked even though that is the unfortunate truth. It's just fascinating and I do acknowledge the many flaws but it is just interesting to note and see especially analyzing the emotions of people who got in or rejected. I honestly just find it really exciting because you can really witness human nature and all the bad/good things, even though there are a lot of flaws with the process I think it's just really exciting and breathtaking.
Edit: Let it be known that the u/ThatOneMonkey32 is a fraud and needs to be exposed. He has been lying that he got into stanford, doctoring messages and going by the name of Jason Hyung. I have a full dm with this dude and hes honestly just a creep. Just want everyone to stay safe and be careful of the weirdos on this subreddit.

See, the phrasing here might make one think that this was written by AI. However, AI can only draw off of information or ideas that already exist (remember how chatgpt cant generate a completely full glass of wine). Therefore, this isn't AI-generated because no one in the history of the would has ever expressed any sort of positive feeling about college applications
