<p>@Princetondreams- lol! I meant any school, not anyone. Since I wrote this is in case of very sleepy state, I made a typo!</p>
<p>@mysticgohan- Yes I do. Like you said Indifference curves are nothing but a set of curves which measure the “indifference” i.e responsiveness of the consumer to a particular object. I know that.</p>
<p>And again the girl. Yes I do accept that I am biased against her. But probably that bias is due to how I was treated by my peers, including her. And yes again perhaps my cynicism against this system arises by my experiences at school. I was mocked, made fun of in front of the whole class. Even teachers joined it sometimes. Of course I took it all in a sportive manner, not bothering about what they thought of me. But deep down it did hurt me that I wasn’t accepted how I was. I had a habit of asking whatever came to my mins to the teachers, my peers even didn’t spare picking up on me even on this aspect. I didn’t have a usual school life like almost everyone has. I wasn’t accepted by the people around me. </p>
<p>I do know a lot of people are made fun of and even mocked, but there’s a limit to everything. After all mocking me so regularly that even a 1st grader knows me by that name what my peers would use to mock me, now that is crossing the line. Still I took everything in stride and talked (acted a lot of times) to people, including that “girl” I talked about earlier. Certainly I am not jealous of her topping the class, as I said I don’t believe in marks. After I finished my school I joined a college. At least the mocking isn’t there, but there’s hardly someone whom I can talk to about my interests. Others talk about movies, tv shows, that’s there mutual interests. Although even I like movies, I am nerdy and somewhat obsessively interested in academic subjects. Tell me how many people I have around me that I can talk to?</p>
<p>This is why I want to come to US. You guys are in Columbia and Caltech, that’s the kind of crowd I want to be in. </p>
<p>Sorry for venting but well you guys pestering about the “girl” made me bring all that out…</p>
