Teen's social-networking site a hit with high schoolersMyYearbook battles it out with Facebook, MySpace to be the online place to meet www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/07/23/BUGU1R465P39.DTLI think she'll do okay: Not many teenagers raise $4.1 million in funding at the same time they're learning how to drive. Or attend a business meeting the morning before their senior prom. Or appear on CNBC and then return to school to take a calculus test. --------- Cook plans to study international business in autumn. The incoming freshman is already scheduled to speak before Georgetown's graduate school of business.

Thats great for her.
You know, sometimes I wonder, How the HELL did I end up at Georgetown? I did some things at school but nothing compared to some of my classmates. My grades were great but so were many other people's. I am not a legacy, nor did my parents donate a lot of money (and they never will, that burden will happily be mine) so there is nothing that makes me special. I know on the board we have read some pretty disgusting articles about kids doing crazy thing to get into college. I got in EA in December 2002 and (I love Georgetown, it was my first choice school) it seemed pretty easy.
Again, great she is succeeding, I hope she kicks butt.
