It hurts to come to grips that I won't ever quite fit into this white collar world in which I find myself, despite my sometimes-desperate efforts to do so.

But it breaks my heart to think that I ever felt like my family wasn't good enough. I'd take them over any of this prestige if I had to choose. In a fucking heartbeat.

hey, i don't know what's going on...but...

I def don't associate MHC with "pretige". Sure, the name sounds fancy, but that's about it. I certainly don't come from a prestigious background... i'm a first generation student, and i don't pay for nearly 1/4 of the cost of the school because i'm so freaking poor.

Honestly, I don't know why you feel you need to have to fit in with the white collar.

cheer up my darling. If i wasn't going to be so freaking busy this weekend with Take the Lead i'd suggest we get together for some coffee at the dirty. Sunday night maybe? as a study break? I feel like i haven't talked to you in forever.

Nothing's "going on" per se. Something was absent-mindedly said that struck a nerve in me today, and I think I have a serious bout of homesickness/inferiority right now anyway. This post is from a culmination of stress and personal uncertainty, and it's not made to cause anyone to question what I think of them. I respect everyone here, I promise, no matter where they come from ( ... )

yah, i can understand where you are coming from. At the same time, i also kinda think that as a first generation college student, I recieve sooo much more support and love from my parents because of the fact that i am realizing a dream they never got to experience... vs those parents who went to college, and then push their kids and stress them out to do well, and come out as they did when they went through it all. in that sense, we are soo much stronger than those who have parents who went through college, because we were so much more motivated to do something we had no push from ( ... )
