[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]<<It's a very American concept to 'find yourself' 'be happy'...and if it's important to you, ok. But that's not what I care about. I care about prestige and I care about marketing myself. >> To some extent, your age is talking. When you are fifty, you will be in a better position to decide if prestige is more important than happiness. I think you will find that the former does not necessarily lead to the latter. Understanding who YOU are, and what YOU want (independent of your parents and culture) is a worthwhile pursuit...but it may take more growing up for you to realize that. I wish you well , I really do.[/quote] Like I said, what floats your boat but your values arent universal. You assume that happiness should be the primary goal to the exclusion of prestige but why can't I be happy in prestigious Stanford? [/quote]
