Where Can It Be Found?

Why?
When I told people that I wanted to go to Yale University, I got one solid piece of advice: "You need to find a way to stand out; you need to be special." I am a pretty ordinary person, so I had to do something to change that. My good friend suggested writing a circular/comic strip about something I am an "expert" at. So here I am. Any comments, concerns, or suggestions I'd love to hear: twinklletoez@comcast.net

...Today Our Hero Goes Tour Guide Critiquing...
The Tour Guides I Encountered
- Ms. Over Enthusiastic: Refuses to give any hardcore facts, only expresses her unconditional love for her school, wears a peppy smile that has got to hurt, and her voice goes up at the end of sentences.
- Mr. 21 Questions: Goes around the group asking where everbody is from and what their intended major is, acts as if he cares what everyone's intended major is, tries to make stupid jokes about your answers and lists past statistics about where the majority of the people on his tour are from.
- Ms. Billboard: Makes sure to point you in the direction of the bookstore, wears and carries only university clothing and items, and ends the long and grueling tour (which makes you hungry) in the food court and proceeds to describe her favorite dish.
- Mr. Perfection: Wears a happy and enthusiastic smile, answers all questions thoroughly, makes sure he can be heard, is tastefully funny with jokes that don't sound rehearsed, and gives out his email for further questioning.
