I keep on running for school positions and I think it’s gone out of hand. I already have some things for next year that are set and stone and not gonna lie, its great and satisfying. However, the more I run for, I get this weird adrenaline rush that can’t stop until the session is over and the winners are announced. But with all these positions that I have attained, what ‘am I trying to prove? That I’m a good speechwriter and I like to lead and help others? Sure, that’s the main thing - that I like to help others, get to know them and what not, but that’s it. I really need to sweat this stuff out because nobody is going to care if I was such-and-such for this unnamed club. Plus, school elections aren’t even fair. Elections aren’t even fair. Poor Al Gore. And Poor Samuel Tilden. Damn, nothing is really fair in life, ain’t it?
Yes. No. Maybe so.
I still have time though. I really want to run for a model congress position because since the 10th grade, I’ve had so many great ideas on how I can better change the club and they are so close to just bursting out of my system to the point where I want to scream to my advisor, “LISTEN TO MY IDEAS BECAUSE THIS CLUB ISN’T REALLY GOING ANYWHERE – IT’S BEEN THE SAME STUFF ALL YEAR!!”
Even, for an Amnesty International position... Oh god, I really need to stop and see a shrink.
This isn’t just for college applications either. I love what I do. I just haven’t had the time to spill it all out which is the suckiest part.
Other then my aberrant propensity for running for school elections, I’ve been surprisingly well. BH and Ruthie are the ones seriously keeping me sane. And I love them for that (especially BH, but obviously there is a good reason for that…) Without them, the government probably would’ve caught me by attempting to add an amendment to the constitution about God-knows what.
84 days baby!!!!
