Chapter 72: Harvard Admissions Meets Freaks
Although the middle school where I grew up is private, it has been difficult to attract good students because it is far from downtown San Francisco.
This makes Zhang Xiaokai, who is far smarter than children of the same age, very lonely all the time, with a kind of meaning of seeing the mountains at a glance, and almost no decent competitors from the lower grade to the upper grade.
It's different at Harvard.
Recruiting the world's top talents and accommodating them all on this campus, not long after the report ended, he met a group of strange underage alumni, who were not friends for the time being, and some of them had only met once.
For example, in addition to her roommate named Ge Jun, there is also an international student named Cai Hoxi, who is also Chinese, only 18 years old, but she has already received a doctorate from MIT.
I got tired of staying there, so I went to Harvard University again, changed my major and continued to study for a doctorate, and it is said that I can earn no less money from doing projects than from working outside, and I want to stay at Harvard University and find a job as a teacher.
These things were told to him by Ge Jun, because Cai Hexi went out to communicate, and the little guy had been living alone in the dormitory for three days, thinking about taking care of the "junior brother" Zhang Xiaokai, so he introduced the basic situation in the dormitory.
Don't look at his young age, his mental age looks more mature than Zhang Xiaokai, he originally thought he was already very perverted, until he met a freak who was the same age as himself, but had already begun to study astrophysics, and wanted to win the Nobel Prize in physics before the age of twenty.
Looking at it this way, he felt very ordinary, and even wondered if the admissions office of Harvard University had taken pity on him and saw the book he had written with Mr. Stewart, which gave him the admission qualification, because they asked about it during the admissions interview.
Daddy Zhang saw that his son was adapting well in school, and he had already taken little Patrick and Terrence on his return journey.
still drive back, but this time there is no need to hurry, ready to take the time to see the beautiful scenery missed along the way, ready to drive back to Cleveland Ranch in four days, or it will be too wasteful to throw a brand new big G here, Zhang Xiaokai has not been able to get a driver's license yet.
Harvard's dormitory is much more comfortable than the dormitory I lived in during my private middle school, although it is not large, more than a dozen square meters, at least there is some privacy.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Xiaokai lives in the women's dormitory building, and I don't know why this is arranged, most likely because he wants the older female genius Cai He Xi to help take care of them, you must know that Ge Jun was only ten years old when he first entered Harvard, and the men's dormitory building may not be allocated.
Every time I go out, I always meet a lot of girls, and last night I even saw a female student walking around wearing a bra, which is really different from the middle school days.
According to Ge Jun, ordinary adult students play with adult students, and they play by themselves, and their words vaguely reveal the meaning of looking down on the IQ of ordinary Harvard students, and they look a little underwhelmed.
Zhang Xiaokai was successfully pulled into a group chat with only twenty-two people, and added notes according to the regulations, because he had written a book, which was about to be made into a movie after publication, which made the little geniuses from all over the students feel very cool, and the welcome was quite sincere......
The little guy has nothing to do, almost all the admission procedures are taken by Ge Jun to complete, the course has been selected, and there is still a new student admission welcome ceremony before the official class time.
On the third day of Zhang Xiaokai's arrival at Harvard.
His roommate Ge Jun woke him up, stood on the edge of the bed and said, "You missed the entrance ceremony perfectly, but that doesn't matter, if you feel sorry, you can attend again next year." Help me make a tough decision...... At noon, we went to eat Chinese food, and I chose two of the four things of Kung Pao chicken, mapo tofu, fried chicken, and green vegetable soup. ”
I couldn't sleep last night, and I chased the drama until midnight, Zhang Xiaokai was still stunned at this time, and he had a feeling that he didn't know where he was.
Stretching his waist for more than ten seconds, he then told, "We can order four dishes to eat together, and now I'm very hungry, I'm sure I can eat them, and the entrance ceremony is really over?"
After looking at the phone, it was already 11:35 p.m. East Coast time, and I really overslept, got up calmly, and was stunned for a while before I said very Buddhaly: "It's a pity, I was looking forward to the entrance ceremony." ”
"I thought you were going to attend, or I could have woken you up and reached the best time of the day to eat, so don't bother, it's more fun to have a party in the group chat in the evening.
You can wear whatever costume you like, and I advise you not to choose the demon department, there was a guy who was almost purified last year, did I tell you that there is a little guy in the seminary who comes from a cathedral? because he didn't have a cell phone to use, he didn't join our group. ”
As soon as he got up, he heard the little guy chattering, Zhang Xiaokai was a little depressed, got out of bed in despair to change clothes, and asked: "Disguise yourself as Halloween? But don't be a demon or other characters, right, it sounds more interesting, my family has never been Halloween." ”
Ge Jun nodded: "My family too, so this kind of opportunity is rare, maybe you can go to a party to sell the book you wrote, and newcomers must introduce themselves, this is the rule." Wait until there's a medieval round table party next month, and I'll send you a link to the clothes, so it's best to buy the right size for you in advance. ”
"So you have parties every month?"
"No, if someone runs out of pocket money, it will probably cause the party to be canceled and turned into some less expensive party, such as a picnic on campus, and whoever has more pocket money will buy more. ”
“…… I forgot that you haven't made any money yet, and these past few days have given me the illusion that you're twenty years old. Zhang Xiaokai couldn't cry or laugh, feeling that he had chosen the right choice to come to Harvard University, if he had gone to Duke University at that time, life would definitely not be as interesting as it is now.
Ge Jun is very mature in other things, but when it comes to money, he is very desperate, his pocket money is controlled by his parents to death, and he even has to be approved to buy books, so he can't save money at all.
We went to the restaurant to eat together, the taste of Chinese food is more authentic, it is the taste that Zhang Xiaokai likes, he invited guests, and in return, the little guy is willing to help clean the bedroom for three days.
Then he went to prepare the clothes he would use for the evening, the price was not a problem, he still had a total of more than 57,000 US dollars in his card balance, Harvard University provided a full scholarship, and it didn't cost much to study.
chose a set of Batman's clothes, which cost more than 150 US dollars in total, which is decent, Zhang Xiaokai has never worn it, the number of customers in the comic store is far more than he imagined, the weather is starting to get colder, and it will not be too hot to wear today.
I haven't cut my hair for almost a year, Ge Jun is going to get a haircut, and he also goes with him, so he simply cuts his hair short, and his long hair looks too childish.
When I first came to college, I adapted quite well, and during the charity donation activity, I took out a $100 bill and threw it into the box.
understood that he had met a local tyrant, and his roommate Ge Jun was envious and a little heartbroken, when he graduated, the school only gave him a certificate, and he didn't give any bonuses......
