So from what I gather, you're upset because your friends look down on your high expectations? That's completely ridiculous for your friends to think you're a wanker who thinks too highly of himself just because you want to go places. If you have the will, you can go wherever you want in life. Thinking that having high aspirations makes you a bad person is pretty backwards. I think the problem lies mostly with your friends. People will try to pull you down to their level, because it's a somewhat natural tendency of human beings to want what others have, and, if they can't get it, to pull those other people who have it down to their level.
Now, granted, being conceited isn't a great thing. I've never noticed you being more conceited than average, but I don't know you all that well. What I do know is that it's bogus to just assume that what "he" thinks is right. What "he" thinks is not necessarily even close to being true. Again, it might be a case of jealously rearing it's ugly head. From what I do know of you, you have a lot of things to be proud of, and a lot of things going for you. You're smart, cute, and funny, and seem to have an educational drive that I wish more people had. If someone has an issue with all that, then fuck them (not literally) - it's not worth destroying your self esteem because someone else is a little jealous.
For argument's sake, though, let's say you might be a little arrogant. I don't think so, but let's just say that. Arrogance can be easily rid of by just being a little more self-conscious. If at some point during the day you find yourself acting a bit full of yourself, just stop, and remind yourself that modesty is the answer - at least in public. To be honest, being "full of yourself" is not really that bad internally, at least in my opinion - it's much better than being overly critical and down about yourself (although from your post it seems like you have a bit of that going for you, too). My point for this paragraph, though, is that it's kind of absurd to even jokingly say it's "an hero tiem" when, a. your basing everything off the words of another person, and b. even if his words are true (which they most likely are not), arrogance is an easily reversible trait.
Don't let the words of some jerk get you down, even if that jerk is someone you've considered a friend in the past. If he can't live with your high aspirations, it seems to me that you don't really need him dragging you down. If that's elitist, then so be it, but it seems more common sense than elitist to me. Surround yourself with friends that let you succeed to the best of your abilities, and push you ahead when the going gets rough, not ones that let you down and tell you how horrible of a person you are. You are NOT a horrible person. You are not detestable, nor are you an asshole. There is nothing wrong with you, but there seems to be something wrong with your friend(s). Why are you like what? Smart, funny, and cute? I don't know, but you can consider me envious.

Sorry I can't give any decent advice. But I know you're not a detestable person or an asshole and I don't think there's anything wrong with you.

well, i dont know what ur expectation is.... ur not trying to be the first gay pope, right:)?
but, yeah, i know how u feel. sometimes my friends said that to me, too. but u know what, i realize that these high expectation are not meant to be said. they are meant to be proven. so, i think u should stop talking bout it, and start proving it. its better to lay low and back with a 'bang'.

Well I think you're a pretty awesome dude, and people who look down upon you don't have their head screwed on right. If you wanna go high places, then I reckon you can, and the only way to get there and to believe that you can. So if you have high aspirations, keep on believing you can get there
