I told my friend how I had 2 speeches done and an idea for a 3rd and the requirements for the AA and BS Psychology classes on a flash drive. she said " Wow your ahead of the game for sure."

I know that's a positive comment but IMO it's a silly one. Being literal&serious what "game?" IMO College isn't a game! It's something to be taken VERY Seriously. I also think it's great I'm "ahead of the game" with 2 speeches done and the AA/BS Psychology stuff on a flash drive. What are your thoughts on the comment? Yes it was a nice comment and I liked it etc. but just wanted to know if maybe some of you viewed the comment slightly how I view it. Kind of silly way of seeing it but that's just how I am LOL!

Naa, it's not really silly. "Ahead of the game" is just a common saying, it doesn't mean he thinks that the course is actually a game. Anyway, if you think about it, everything we do is a game in some ways.

I got better at coping with life in general when I started thinking that way. :)
