Every morning I drive up 59, go to 45, spur 5 and park across the street from the rec building. I walk to the MD Anderson library and walk in the doors, take an immediate left and go to the tables near the vending machines and set up my laptop. I do whatever for a little bit, grab a snack, then head to class, be in the Ezekiel Cullen building for English classes, PGH for bagels, the auditoriums for history or poli sci, or the buildings a little further back for math/science. When traffic is bad or I feel like being different, I exit on Cullen and park at Robertson Stadium, which is where Dynamo plays and also across from the gym where there are other math classes and the math lab.

Enough oO?

Oh and the Bauer Business building, near the UC, has a Starbucks on the second story. You walk in, take a right, go up the stairs and u-turn, taking a left shortly. Starbucks CHEA.

.. I'm sorry, but I think you're confused.

A college is an undergraduate school that grants bachelor degrees, etc., and is not a high school as you don't get a degree in high school.

A university can consist of undergraduate and graduate schools, so a university can have one or more colleges within it... none of which include high school.

This is the case pretty much everywhere, so... unless you live on another planet, I don't think high school can be college where you live.

I walked this past Saturday. It was funny because I was almost LATE to my own graduation! They said I have to be there by 1:50 or else I can't walk and I drove up to the entrance at 1:46, had my friend parked my car, and ran like a madwoman to check in. Everyone was looking at me funny becuase my collar was falling and my hair was a mess... Luckily, I had friends to help me pull myself together just in time. Coincidentally, "just in time" is a motto at my student organization. laugh.gif

Thank you! Yea, I'm so proud of myself, too, though right now I'm stuck with not knowing where to go from here!

Thank you! I know you'll feel like you're on top of the world when you're walking across that stage when they call your name. Make sure you don't trip though! Or if you do, pretend you MEANT to trip! shifty.gif

Graduated from high school you mean?!? Right? Right?




Oh, I call it "college", but it can be used interchangably with university. Well, that is, I was enrolled at Bauer College of Business, which is one of many colleges within the University of Houston system.

And my friend goes to a high school called "College Park," but that doesn't mean she goes to a college. Your school is described as a secondary school, fool. A college is a higher education institution.
