Post 34: The Quintissential Colleges

Through the maelstrom of high school, there is one common goal: get into a good college. The two quintessential colleges, or in understandable terms, the two colleges whose acceptance to is so greatly desired, are MIT and Harvard (top and bottom images respectively).

Both Boston-ese in origin, one stacked high with monotonous red brick, the other an endless wave of lustrous metal. Both beautiful in its own way. Walk the empty halls and hear the whispers of noble prize winners resonate, inspiring you to work ever harder to reach your goal of being accepted. The decadent sound of a lecture, pages turning, erasers squeaking, pencils scribbling away. The hectic panic moments after checking if their own answer was correct, each arguing as if a mandate from a higher power was given which insured that their own answer was the only one correct. In the green lounge, laid sprawled across a cushion, keyboard clacking with fury compose the greatest papers our generation has to offer.

Here resides the greatest minds in America, in the world.

Truly, this is the epitome of glory, the definitive sense which encompasses all that is desired in a college. Truly, these are the two quintessential colleges.
