"Most Likely to Succeed" Burden
So, being voted "Most Likely to Succeed" causes pressure on students, and some schools are even discontinuing the practice of superlatives all together to keep from stressing people out. I seriously don't remember who was "Most Likely to Succeed" from my high school...actually I dug out my old yearbooks and looked...THOSE PEOPLE BETTER HAVE SUCCEEDED...if they haven't I'll be sooo let down. [/sarcasm]

Looks like I got lucky and just won "Best Personality."
 Wait... does that imply something bad about the way I look???

The people voted most likely to succeed from my graduating class ended up working at Starbucks and Long's Drugs. Hilarious.
