Just browsing and found this article about an upcoming
Deal or No Deal Contestant.
http://tinyurl.com/yrkyr7
What caught my attention was the one comment after the article:
I just want to say that I really admire this girl and her
dedication to the game of dealing. Just the fact that
she would go out of her comfort zone and admonish
all previous goals, just to win some cash makes me
shake with excitement. Without this girl in my life,
I would probably not have decided to quit school
and devote my life to trying to get on this show.
Howie Mandel, if you are reading this, please
consider me to be on your fabulous show. I am
a vivacious, spontaneous, lively, and rambunctious
young college student who would love to
be considered for deal or no deal, the story of my life!
How's that for ambition? It may just work.

How does one admonish one's goals? Or is that just boredspeak?

I would say consider the source. The article says she is in the School of Communications at Murray State, and I didn't pick up that she had particularly "admonished all her goals".

Hey, I have a niece who goes to Murray State and a nephew who just got his degree after about 6 or 7 years there. Go Racers!

Don't all degrees take 6 or 7 years these days?
I know several people who went to Murray. I think it's probably a pretty good school with nice size classes.
