Mitzi has learned to make allowances for Pippi-vision over the time they've known each other, expecting the conversation to turn to cute animals several times while her friend speaks. The fact that they only get side-tracked /once/ tells Mitzi that this is something she considers important.
Mitzi continues to listen as Pippi describes the trust fund and scholarship money that she's got set aside and Mitzi can't help but be a little envious. Mitzi had thought about college, but figured it just couldn't happen, since she didn't have the money, even if she had the SAT scores. Sure, she had a little bit of money /now/, after finding that lottery ticket, but that wouldn't last forever. Not with life and things happening.
So when Pippi says she's not going to college, Mitzi is about to protest and tell her friend not to throw this opportunity away. She's ready to give Pippi about twenty or thirty reasons not to walk away from this, but she holds her tongue for just a minute more, though her expression says she really wants Pippi to reconsider.
Which makes her look a little bit silly when Pippi asks her if she wants to go to college.
"Pippi, I'd /love/ to go to college, but I'll be working for the rest of my natural life to pay it off. Oh, that is, in between going to school, working and being a Titan. The only college I got accepted to was in New York, and the only reason I can stay in New York is because I can live at Titans' Tower for free and teleport." Mitzi says.
It's clear that she didn't exactly follow her friend's line of thought.
