So, I'm visiting Florida State University campus today because my fiancee goes to school there (which she despises, for many of the same reasons I hated Florida State) and I finally realized why I hate Tallahassee so much. While I thought it was solely due to the lack of things to do, the people, and the fact that any sort of cultural anything worth a damn is absent from this place, I now realize that the main reason I hate it is because of Florida State University.
Now, I use to like FSU, but that only lasted a few months. I attended here for two grueling long years (before I went insane from lack of anything remotely interesting and ended up in the Army) and every second I was here I noticed more and more that nearly everyone who attends this school is a carbon copy of what Hollywood depicts as "cool". Now, while I can handle this to an extend it eventually wears on you.
For most of the males at this school, they dress in preppy-ish clothes and their whole purpose in life is to get drunk and laid. Great life goals. Even the metal heads over here are lame, as they'll even go and dress up in button up t-shirts and some fancy jeans in order to "impress the ladies". I just don't understand what could even be impressive about being just like EVERYONE else. I overheard a conversation between two guys today while sitting outside a class, it went as follows: "Yo dude! So I was totally smokin' some weed yesterday and I accidentally walked into my friends room as she was changing and saw her naked!" "Dude that's awesome! How were her tits????!!!!!1111111one"
The girls aren't much better. Many of then are the Paris Hilton copies their sororities want them to be, and even the ones who don't blatantly rip off her look, (which isn't that great to begin with) with all their bleached-to-shit hair and overly massive sunglasses, act and talk like her. The word "like" is more than likely one of the only words in their vocabularies. Here's a good quote: "Like, I was like, trying to, like, you know? Like, I was trying to, like, well, like, my brain just doesn't, like, do math well. And like, chemistry has a lot of math, Like, you know what I mean? Like, it's hard!" I'm not even exaggerating.
As for the school itself, it has claimed to the students that "it is running very low on funding, and therefore must lay off many professors and cut many majors all together." So, by cutting all this they were going to be able to save money so they can keep the professors they have left, and expand upon the areas of study still around right? Wrong. Anyone who walks through the campus can see what they're spending the money on: renovating (already nice) buildings. For ones building, the Library (which is one of the nicest buildings on campus aside from the medical ones), they're completely gutting it and putting in new stuff to make it "look more modern". What the fuck? You're firing people, cutting back classes, and whole majors, yet you're going to spend money to make something already nice "look more modern"? Is there something wrong with me, or is this actually fucked up? I just don't understand how they can claim to be broke, and then go and redo a shit ton of buildings that DON'T NEED IT. It's like the whole fucking campus is under construction. But hey, whatever right? It's not like they can't have more freshmen next year to make more money! Even though this year campus is already packed at about 7.30 in the morning and by 8-8.30 it can be hard to find parking due to the overflow of people. Oh, and before I forget. The sports programs funding has been cut too (even though this is their own damn fault for being involved in a mass scale cheating scandal involving over 300 people, I believe, including staff. Way to go FSU!)
Now what all this has to due with my hatred for Tallahassee is this: If it wasn't for the amount of trash this school imported, more decent people might live here instead of merely thugs, pretty boys, and whores. K, that's really all I have to say right now I guess. I think I'm going to look for food.
Oh, yeah.
