=( how much is scholarship and how much is the full fee to attend theer
why is it the money what matters. this is so unfair
omg do they want like 4.0 GPA and 2400 SAT 1 for more!? WTF
sharonnee: its 32,000 a yr and gave me just a bit...
how much are your parents willing to pay for you?
is tht the total fee or only tuition?
my family isnt that wealthy.... they can pay max of around 12,000 a yr otherwise they wil go kill themselves
the world should be under communism from now
aw true!!! nori shud cherish wat he has.....but...i agree with u!

about the edu part..
it seems like MONEY IS WHAT MATTERS IN LIFE to me
and if u dont hav it, bad luck. if u have it, go fuck ur life
why are you talking bad things about people with money? not everyone in the society can be the same
some people will be rich, and others won't be. that's the reality
did u read wat jenny posted about the...ppl hu dnt need financial aid get in schools more easily in some cases? oh well. life. haha.
im not saying rich ppl r bad.
i should just forget abt america
that country doesnt no longer exist in my life
why do u compare me with the rest of the world
because you're part of it. you know there are students out there who can't even GO to college because they can't afford anything.
sure sure sure. i shouldnt be sad. okay, ill be happy then
r u happy with what u have? i guess u r coz u can go
I got into USC but I cant really afford to pay 50,000 dollars each year because i've got siblings too.
I wish I can go, but if I can't, then that's it
I cant change the fact that I cant pay that amount of money for 4 years. so accept what you have
well Nori, I get that you're upset because money is the only thing that's preventing you from going to the states
but undergrad isn't everything. you can go to an affordable college, get a job and work and then save up money
and then go to grad in the states if you really want to. what school you went to doesn't really matter. it's about how you did at a school
and what your characters are
jenny thnx.... thats what viki told me before too. i knw undergrad isnt everything and understand what ppl say but it just sometimes
so annoying that what always makes me abandon my dreams is money
but your dream doesnt have to be achieved during the next four years of college. it's never to start pursuing your dream
whether its starting from grad school or when you're in 30s
haha, forgot to add that word in.
but it will be an important part of my life rite? i researched but jp society does not put much attention on art
and us have more oppotunities and choices
i'm sure japan has art schools.
if all doesnt work out, go to an art school in japan and work your way up in that school and then go to the us
they do but it is extremely hard to get a 'good' job after it
well do you think you'll get a good job after it if you're in the states? whoever has to hire you over there has to provide the gov't
ya but us has more choices.... and i also think this may be a good pt to give up art
proofs and stuff so that u can get a working visa. why would they go through all that trouble if theres a local student just as good as u
if you are giving up art JUST because you cant go to a us university for undergrad
then that's just fucked up. you said it was your dream. dreams arent given up easily nori.
no coz jp art skuls are dang hard to get in. their acceptance rate is lower than ones of harvard and yale and other us ivy league skuls
nori... i really believe that college is what u make out of it. and u can always go to a cheaper college, then transfer in last 2 years
ferniee: dreams and what ur good at r not always the same... somebody told me b4
eatbanana: for me, it's either jp uni or us uni... and cnt transfer from jp > us that easily
and so because of that you're just going to "give up"? you keep on saying jap art schools are so hard to get into. you didn't even try!
you're basically saying since you cant get into jap art schools, you have to go to the states
but since you cant pay for it, you are going to give up art
and jp art skuls r as expensive as the us art skuls
n jp unis dont offer scholarships
of course dreams aren't what your always good at. but the thing about a "dream" is that you try hard to make it come true.
it doesn't just happen to you. and sorry but what did you expect when you wanted to do art in college? art schools are expensive.
like music, it requires more than just academics, so it costs more.
all us skuls r expensive. not only art skuls
wait, so u got into a jp school? why not do that then? and what's so bad about starting ur career in jp neways?
nah i didnt apply for jp unis coz its process starts in november
not all us schools are THAT expensive. look at some public schools. some even have almost same tuition fee for int'l kids and instate
i researched skul with tuiton fee <12000 but they are all like.... none of them were famous
i knw fame isnt what matters but its important rite
and did you bother checking scholarships for schools whose fee may be above 120000 but still a good state school?
cuz, I did. and I got into Indiana with scholarship. how's that? it's a state uni, not really famous in korea
but it's somewhere I can get the education I want with the money I can pay for.
dont talk abt my bro u dont even knw him
n i hate when ppl just compare me with him.
don't worry nori. everything will work out in the end. just pursue ur dreams as much as possible regardless of ur environment ^^
haha thnx kawai.... honestly u really help me

(im not being sarcastic, im being honest)
why do we tlk on plurk whn we gt tlk on msn
coz i posted this plurk when u were not online lol
um, ppl. i was sorry for being so selfish... and thnx. esp jenny (i was really sorry) and kawai....
sry it sounds so cliche but im being honest
james, why do u criticize someone so much for a problem that we can all obviously relate to? u dun have to get in ur high-horse
stop typing for a while n let me read the convo
well like kawai said, don't give up on art JUST because of money. if things don't turn out the way you want them to right now
you can always change that later on, when you are able to support yourself financially
ferniee: ya i think i can persuade in my own way.
dont be a hypocrite. u know u dont think that way about ur own life james
ferniee: thnx a lot =]. i was sorry for just like splling everything out. i was really sorry.
i said congrats for the schoarlship. n nori.. why do u think us is the only place to acheive ur dream, n success?

dreams are EVERYWHERE
GUYS. CHILL. everyone's a hypocrite. everybody lies. THE END. HOUSE IS GREAT.
doesn't matter if he's a hypocrite or not. that's ad hominem. in the end, we're supposed to be constructive here.
and i dun think he's being very constructive
why james, do u sound so sarcasitc n bitter? its natural for ne one to seek sympathy in this sitaution, anyone woudl too
guys dont become too aggressive. i was just spilling everything out because i was just too out-of-control when i saw the email from saic
and it was my fault making ppl mad
but you can't always seek for sympathy. i'm sorry but that's how it is. you also need someone who can tell you shit.
nori, trn this into a positive thing, them givin u a scholarship shows tht u really hv thea bility, no matter where u go
and jenny, thats why, n im sure most people, treasure u as a great frnd coz unlike alot of ppl, u cn acutallyt ell ppl shit
james i can tell u were bitter abt not getting sympathy from ppl. but honestly thats cuz u dun ask for it
so maybe u should try something new instead of just bashing on other ppl
from me? no jenny i really meant it, ur the one of the few ppl i treasure
yeah james, everyone needs comfrt n frnds , esp coz this period is so hard on him
i shouldnt have spread so much sarcasm. now i see it everywhere! it haunts me! like IB.
its ok dude i cant apply to any of those top private schools cuz i dont wanna pay that much haha.
does it matter? someone else does. so why are u bitter abt it?
and u just have to make it worse
and why are u so bitter abt that? if it makes him feel better let him complain, cuz everyone else does
I feel like singing the "happy little working song" from enchanted..just to lighten up the mood.
james, i know where ur coming from. nori is just not getting the big picture. we'll all here to help push him into the right direction, not
lol, i cn visualize pattys intense look on her face. her frown > <
nori to b honest, is still abit too idealistic/pessimistic (tht combo does mke sense), james on the other hand, is too 'realistic'
ppl please dont just bash on each other. plz. it was my fault
nori i no u didnt mean to seek sympathy n play a 'innocnt ' role with tht cmment bt dnt mke it worse
more like, u cant handle seeing other ppl get what u cant have
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA . ♪.
THERE. I ADDED A MUSIC NOTE.
patty i think its enough for the day
I think ka-wai would be a good counselor.
patty ur getting confused! james is not here to refuse nori the sympathy that he never received. james is saying that it's an insult to the
ppl who can't afford to go to uni.
james, ENOUGH WITH UR PESSIMISM,
patty, ENOUGH WITH UR CRITICISM
i think jenny kawai n i can see where both james n nori are comin frm
james i forgive u cuz u own up to it
in the end, nori, i think that everything works out

i didn't get into U texas business college, but i'm going to take courses that will
so yes, lets end this convo,
help develop my soft skills that will help me succeed in business
nori u should delte the thread
hey i didnt gt into DUKE, its okay my dream dnst end there

thnx everyone
so, nori, i hope u REALIZE wt ppl said, n hope this convo does not go to vain

so much time spent on typing

hey my college yield list was 50 percent


i dont care
WHO CARES ABOUT COLLEGES TIME TO GAME TOMORROW
nori come game and you can take your mind out of it.
hahaha it must've been soo funny for jenny!! we're going lanning
yeah..I dont know what that means!
like, going to an internet cafe to own some hoes up
ill be the one getting owned lol how ironic lol
betcha we're gonna have fun. haha james that's really funny. like how rajiv's dad thinks that going to superbrand mall leads to drug usage
lol superbrand is pretty safe isnt it?
lol nori near superbrand =)
soda is bad for ur health!!!! lol
uh, it tastes good. as long you dont consume excess amount of it . i think its fine.
i dont think soda tastes good
*gasps* you health freaks.
coke has the worst taste ever
i drink soda only as a social tool. i would almost never drink it otherwise haha
omgosh. you guys are missing out.
root beer. Or root beer+ice cream= best float. Then when theres no root beer theres always fanta i guess...
i dont like the bubble-taste
i think they are great inventions
its like carbon dioxide in water
its the quantum physics of the soda world. Just when you think it can't taste any better...
but yes, floats are amazing.
is quantum physics really that interesting? i heard williams got addicted onto that
mr. williams? i thought he was a bio man all the way.
haha i didn't pick the particle physics option Paula and Adrian did. It's all really theoretical but i guess some people are more into that
i'm more into the practical stuff that can actually like make a change (make money)
floats are good, but i dont like physics
and the reason why he wants to become an engineer lol =]
lmao soda bad for u? its juz the white sugar in soda thts bad, whch u put into ur coffe e everymrnin
lol coffee tastes good, soda doesnt
better thn soda, i dont drink soda a t all, diet coke exception
i heard diet coke is even worse than the normal coke
then the name diet coke is ironic
no dude it is diet its just bad for u in other ways
haha jenny our group 4 was so.. successful
it was! very scientific too. burning coke and measuring stuff that was left
oh that weird black things on the dish!!!
HAHAHAAH yes! we got full marks@!! dnt diss.. haha
