| sooo... im really tired of IB. especially with this EE comming up. ive been trying to look for topics and i found a forum on Facebook. they are quite interesting. not to mention that they all sounded really smart and they're all in places like Washington DC, princeton, yale, head of their department jobs, doctors, etc. amazing people. excluding me. i am also going to fail my IB philosophy because i have two papers due by thursday and i dont even know how to write them. not to mention there's gonna be an exam sometime this week (swanny didnt specify) and im not really sure i grasped the full concept of budhism. maybe i'll just go ask the seniors. the question: was IB really worth it? right now i'm saying no. but to everyone who graduated... however much they WANT to say "no it wasnt it was hell dont do it" they have to admit that deep DEEP down there it was actually worth it. sucks really bad. to sum it up: you know when you're an IB student when... -u say the same sentence over and over again, not realizing you've said it before. You say the same sentence over and over again, not realizing you've said it before. -The Sun is too loud. -Trees begin threatening you. -You can see individual air molecules vibrating. -While writing a TOK paper, you begin to actually understand the material. -You explore the possibility of setting up an IV drip of espresso. -You wonder if brewing is an essential step in the consumption of coffee. -Things become "very clear" -You begin speaking in a language that only you and Channelers can understand. -You believe that if you think hard enough, you can levitate. -You say the same sentence over and over again, not realizing you've said it before. -You heart beats in 7/8 time. -You and Reality file for divorce. -You have great revelations concerning Life, the Universe, and Everything else, but can't quite find the words for them before the white glow fades, leaving you more confused than before. -You discover the aesthetic beauty of school supplies. -You begin to talk to yourself, then disagree about the subject, get into a nasty row about it, lose, and refuse to talk to yourself for the rest of the day. -You can spell "Baccalaureate". -"I.B., therefore I B.S." -"IB has an honor code?!?!" -"Friends" and "fellow IBers" are interchangeable. -You go to bed at 3AM and think, "Oh, it's an early night!" -Your favorite saying is "If I get a hundred on every test for the rest of the year..." -Social life? What's that? -You've fooled yourself into believing that colleges actually care whether you're in IB or not. -You try to wake up fast enough to catch yourself sleeping - and succeed. -You talk to yourself in the 3rd person. -You write sentences on multiple choice tests. -It's okay to fail, so long as you are not alone. -You frequently catch yourself saying "What?? We had homework??"
