Get the Laughing Academy mug."You know – Arcadia? The realm of the infinity? It's a poet's corner. This is the code by which we live our lives. This is the pact we've sworn all those years ago that turned us all from enemies into companions and wayfarers and travellers on the seas of Albion. It's not a cult or a religion – it's an awareness of your surroundings; you're not gonna force yourself on anyone and, equally, no-one's gonna force themselves on you. And it's about community and pleasure. It came from a whisper through the trees. It came from a crack in the pavement. It can also come when you open a bag of crisps, or when you kick a football against a goalpost. Even if I was winding you up, it would still be true, because Arcadia and the Arcadian Dream is so deep, is so true to our hearts... There have been Arcadian gatherings over the years, but I think the best is yet to come. It can be as powerful as your imagination can allow it to be. But, it can also be as dark and twisted as your soul... Arcadia encompasses the infinite, and that's why it comforts me."

Get the arcadia mug.Related Words
A school where the students think they aren't snobby but make the assumption that the only people who go to public school do so because they can't afford a "better" education and will only make minimum wage their entire life. CCA is mainly full of MIDDLE-upper class kids who think that everyone is jealous of all their money. However, as the definitions stated most students are on financial aid and don't have as much money as they try to act like. Juicy Couture and Uggs are not high class.
Due to the fact that they are conceited, CCA students fail to realize that most of them are not that smart. Those that are did not get that way from the school - they're naturally intelligent and supplement their shitty education by studying from various outside sources. Very little of what is taught at CCA is useful. I was a top student throughout my eight year stay at CCA, and although I could spout off history about the Mayans, had the map of China memorized, and knew a ton of Latin I didn't know West Virginia was a state until I went to public school. I received a much higher quality education and got a huge reality check when upon transferring realized what a f*cking spoiled brat I was.

Quotes from CCA students' definitions on this site:
"I agree with NoHatingCCA because, you all are just jealous that we can get a better education while all you dumb losers get to go to public school."
"For the people bagging CCA as a bunch of pompous rich A$$holes, I just want to ask that you make my burger nice and cooked through when you work at McDonalds."
"Does it REALLY bother you that we are able to afford Juicy Couture? I mean, come ON. How lame is that? No jealousy... LAME people."
"We might be higher-classed but that's not a reason to hate us."
...... And they truly believe they're not snobby. :3
If you aren't horrified by the above quotes, then you should remain at Cape Cod Academy (CCA). If you are and have considered transferring but are too afraid to be in the public school system although I loved it I would additionally recommend Falmouth Academy (as you may notice their page has no bullshit drama like this one). I have heard great things from students who transferred there and all the students I've met are extremely nice. No snobs at all - imagine that!

Get the Impact Academy mug.One of America's premier institutions charged with educating, training and inspiring leaders of character. Alongside the Army, Navy, Marines, and Coastguard service academies, the Air Force Academy is the Air Force's rivaling school for producing commissioned lieutenants for service to the nation. Among the top colleges in the country, very difficult to enter, and highly challenging to complete, yet reputable and prestigious to graduate from. Based on foundations of Integrity, Service, and Excellence with school pillars concentrating in Military, Academics, and Athletics. Around 50% of each class elects to be pilots while the other half sign up for various jobs that the Air Force offers.
Grads love it, students can't wait to get the hell out.
