A large and prestigious boarding school in Andover, MA. The school has needs-blind admissions and all are accepted on their own merits, not ability of parents to pay.
The school is huge: five different residential clusters, with five different Disciplinary Committees. In recent years the new Head of School has led a charge towards Political Correctness. So the most popular campus pastime is playing “I’m not privileged.” This is ironic at a school that only accepts one of eight applicants and has nearly a billion dollar endowment.
The school emphasizes that students have to be “Nice.” This is offset by faculty who barely know the kids. It’s the same old “Sink or Swim,” School that it’s been for 250 years, with a new Politically Correct face.

Get the Phillips Academy mug.She is not that jealous, well, it depends. On the type of girl/woman. Now that i think of it, naw, she is not jealous. She used to be very, very, extremely jealous but had a mysterious afflatus in her dream one night that suggested that in ideal conditions with an ideal partner there would not be any reason to be. She might be naive though. Sex is easy, sex is cheap. Flirt is easy, flirt is cheap. If you don't take care of your partner's needs they might be inclined to accept an offer. And thats that. Would that be the end of a relationship for her? Ask her, how do i know.
Phyllis went out with Ron. When she came back from the bathroom there was a tall, black-haired, pale-skinned, voluptious woman standing next to him, her breast almost touching his arm. They were smiling, laughing, gesticulating, grimacing as if they had known each other for a long time. Plus their voices were really low which annoyed her the most. High-pitched voices reminded her of theatre thus fake, not real, acted. But Ron and the woman were so calm, too calm, Phyllis couldnt bear the sight. She didnt know what to do. She tapped Ron, looked him in the eyes and was shocked to see them all dreamy and high and..happy! Then she looked at the woman. She was smiling, really friendly, she didnt reject Phyllis' eye contact and held out her hand. At that moment Phyllis turned away with tears in her eyes realising both Ron and Phyllis had fallen in love with that woman.

Andrew is a beautiful person inside and out, he may have a rough time through life and be a little tough around the edges but hes is one amazing guy, you know those kinds of guys, that you have to break walls down and dig holes in the ground for, he's one of those guys, and I'd give anything to hang out with him. He's musical, and talented in many different ways. Makes the sunshine in the darkest times, and goes through things just as everyone else does, but he pulls through and gets right back up, not staying down.
