Why ?

An interesting origin ... The separation between Cambridge and Oxford ...
It was a storytale .... with all those greenaries ... but through decades ...
It's now filled with intense pressure ... or in another word ... intense happiness from challenges ...

Rumours spread ... wonder it is through or not .. as it is not the first hand infomation
You will be asked to finish 30 books in one weekend
Half of the candidates will drop out after the second year for Mathematics
You will only have 2 hours of sleep everyday

So why do you still want to enter this gorgeous kingdom , that is only suitable for genius ...
Why do you want to suffer for 3/4 years ...and yet you need to pay ex tuition fees ... probably half a million ...

Well ... reasonable answers are :
You will have the aura once you enter ... the fame to step on every corner of the world , or you will have bright future once you leave that kingdom , and you can enter prestigious company , working in high post as you have lots of contacts of future or current leaders from each countries ... Or maybe you would say that you could have the top brains beside you ... so you will be polluted by their wisdom .. and so you will find your true self in no time ... Or you will say that you will find the tradition of Mathematics or maybe other subjects differ from individuals ... you can enter Issac Newton's room in Trinity college and sit on his bed ... you could see how Nobel's/Fields' winner get their inspiration ... or even more you can think of ...

Cambridge is what you make .... but it's definitely gonna be a tough place to be ....
So will you even be happy when you get a conditionl letter ...
Because all those " reasonable" answers can't take you through the hard times ...
What will be you reason you have to get you through when you are in the kick out zone ... definitely not challenging anyway ... maybe you will transfer to another uni's hopefully you can still read the same year ...

So why? It's just fame?
Without your own reason ... you are just another idiot , following the trend ...
Every warrior has a name ... so every warrior has his own destination , direction ...
Without that spirit ... you will sink in crowd ... unable to find yourself ... dragging by darkness

So tell me ... if you know why you will like to enter the kingdom ... If you can find out ....
