Ok. Maybe it's not that funny. But I wanted to grab your attention. Here it goes :
Have you seen the remakes of the American Pie series? The god-awful straight-to DVD renditions, the ones without the original cast or humor, completely devoid of any developing plot or character intimacy? Take this one scene from American Pie Beta House : Some fraternity guys chilling on the balcony talking about girls - they never talk about studying. I mean, come on, who goes to college to study? - when they see a beautiful blonde walking across campus. Dramatic military music starts playing in the background, and the shirtless jock stands up and announces, "All right, boys, two clicks north." His buddies aim their launcher and shoots, and the water balloon lands right on the girl, who, of course, is wearing a white shirt without a bra. Upon this scene my best friend turned to me and said, "Dude, I can't wait until college," in which I replied, "me neither." This, of course, was back in my freshman year. Surprisingly, this is how a lot of my friends still view college. Even my little sister says she wants to go to college to party. I just don't have the time for this immaturity anymore. I have already spent eighteen years of my life, close to a third which I wasted away sleeping and watching crappy comedies. I learned a lot in high school, sure. I learned which chemical reactions took place to heat my school. I learned which Native American finally got pissed off and said, "We've had enough. We want our land back," and started a bloody war. Heck, I even learned how to ask for directions if I ever got lost in Mexico. But college promises more. Not just new material from text books, but experience away from Mom, chance to meet new people, and an education that I can't get anywhere else. I want to be successful, to be able to send my hard working parents on a vacation for once. I want to make something out of myself, to love my job, to be able to proudly tell my kids about my life. College will make this possible. That's why, more than anything, I want to go to college.
This was thrown together in a really short time, so feel free to tear it to pieces.
