Miley Stewart

Dear Miley,

Good for you!  You chose your friends’ dream over yours!  How thoughtful :) Although I can’t really suspend my disbelief enough to accept the idea that you and Lilly both got into Stanford, I’m sure am glad all that effort you put into your school work while being a world wide pop sensation really paid off.  And you are so right, you don’t get another chance to go to college with your best friend.  It’s not like people go back to college in adulthood.  And that degree from Stanford will be really useful considering you probably won’t probably won’t get another movie offer by Steven Spielberg now that you turned him down.  Selena Gomez, look out, Tom Cruise needs a co-star!  
I really hope you and Lilly don’t change at all in college so that the sacrifices you are making are totally worth.  But let’s be honest, I am totally the same person I was when I graduated high school.  I don’t have new friends or a new outlook on life or new anything.  I’m basically a 17 year old stuck in a 22 year old body.  And it’s not like Stanford it that good of a school, I’m sure it won’t challenge any of your beliefs.  Come on, it’s not like you are going to Harvard.  
You are so giving; sacrificing your stardom to be with your best friend.  It's so important to disregard all your own dreams and desires for someone else no matter the cost.  I am a really crappy person, I don’t even have the same best friend as I did 5 years ago!  But I appreciate the value you put on education.  I hope Selena, that other Miley, the Jonas Brothers and JB will follow suit.  Forget the fame, School is Cool!
