Goodnight

Sleep tight, NSA person that has to read my blog posts. You're the only thing getting me pageviews, so thanks.

I'M SO BOOOOOOORRRRRRREEEEEDDDDD I'M SORRY


Soooo you may have remembered that I was hoping to do student council next year? I changed my mind. Let me tell you why.

At my  high school, student council is divided into four sub-groups lead by the three executive officers- president, vice president, and secretary- and are as follows (in order of importance and involvement): class representatives, spirit committee, activities committee, and video committee. The committee members apply for positions and are selected by the executive officers. I was hoping to join video committee, what with my plans of producing movies and studying film making in college I need to get as much experience as I can. This year, however, they decided to remove video committee from student council and took its biggest responsibilities and stuck them with the much less qualified spirit committee.

 Video committee has been traditionally a smaller committee, so it's a little understandable why it was removed and placed off in the back, but it still plays an integral role in the school and should not have been separated. It's also true that this year was very lackluster as far as videos go, especially in comparison to last year. Let me demonstrate:
                                                                         This Year...



aaaand last year...








So it's really clear that this year's committee done goofed, but because they are losing the small amount of talent that they have they are only going to get worse and worse next year and in the years to come.........



I should just do a daily cat GIF. 

5-20-14

The worst part of the last days of school is that there's never anything to do. As an industrious student a.k.a. a nerd I always want to be on top of things, so I'm always trying to work ahead. It's gotten to the point where my parents yell at me for doing too much! For example, I'm trying to start my summer reading that was assigned today. In my defense, it is East of Eden by John Steinbeck, and it is hella long. On top of that, there are a TON of assignments and I'd rather get a head start while I have my school mojo going for me and get sucked into summer laziness/lack of time. My parents are lucky that I'm spending my time doing homework when I could be on drugs instead. They should be proud!

5-20-14, or the last day of Seniors

Today was the senior class's last day of school at my school. Starting tomorrow, I'm officially going to be an upperclassman. It's really strange to me how quickly this year has gone. I know next year is only going to be faster, scarier, and more stressful. I won't miss the majority of the senior class very much. I didn't know too many people in it, and many that I did know I didn't like. Really I'm only going to miss 2-3 people, and I'm dating one of them!
It'll be great to be among the big bad seniors starting tomorrow, but at the same time, I don't want to be one just yet.
