I can't even begin to explain how sucky of a month this has been for me. It's like the wrath of God is bein' poured out all over everything I do and think. It's like God hates me or something, like me and Him got in an argument and I must have said "bring it bitch" or somethin' like that because he sure as hell is bringin' it every second of every day. Let me see where this month began and where it has progressed...
February 25th - Nathan's Apartment
This incident didn't directly "involve" me, but it most definitely affected me. So, I live in Nathan's wing and he and I have a very close relationship like my gay mentor or something (lol), and when he said he was quitting and that he was leaving I just lost it. I mean, Nathan is
probably one of the most influential people I have ever had in my life. He was always there to talk
things out, to listen to my problems, to tell me when I was being absolutely ridiculous, etc. Finding
out that he wasn't going to be around anymore was just to much. He's obviously still here but at
the time, the stress and emotions that arose from it were very real and the effects are still existent.
March 5th - IJAS Deadline
So, I've competed at the Illinois Junior Academy of Science regional and state fairs every year since 7th grade (so three years total). Seniors that have competed as long as I have get a lot of scholarship opportunities from the organization and that's my ultimate goal. But anyways, in light of all of the stuff that I had to do then, and continue to have to do now, it's really been difficult finding the time to dedicate to doing a project and committing the time to work on a presentation. The IJAS Region 5 Fair at NIU is April 5th, a little under two weeks away. I've never been this close to a deadline and not had my paper done. I should be done with my display board by now.
March 5th - A Meeting with Big Bondi
Okay...if you're reading this, you probably are already on the up and up with the news at IMSA and have probably already heard about the prank phone call to Sabrina. Yea, yea, yea...long ass story...not in the mood to go into it. But basically, the same morning I met with my psychiatrist (another blog altogether), I get a phone call to go to security. I had to explain all that jazz and what-not, not the most fun I've had in my life.
March 7th - My Cat Dies
So, I don't fit Hemingway's idea of a man, I'm way too sensitive for that so to hell with it. The title basically says it all. My cat, that I had since she was born, died. We don't know how, I just know that she died because my sister sent me a text message. I know right? What a way to find out...
March 6th to Present - Excel Applications
I'm an Excel student. I had to go to Excel last summer and even though it took up three weeks of my summer, it was one of the best experiences of my life and I wanted with so much passion to be able to give back to the program. I wanted to make the same impact that the Excel tutors were able to make on me. I had a kick-ass application I can honestly say and I was invited to do an interview. But in light of my (at the time) current disciplinary situation, I was not given the opportunity to be a tutor which totally sucks. I've never been that upset about getting declined for something. But as Vonnegut says..."so it goes..."
March 12th to March 17th - Disciplinary Hearing and Suspension
So as a result of my prank phone call, I had a suspension hearing with Bob Hernandez. The hearing went well and everything and I only received a one-day suspension. It wouldn't have been that bad if it wouldn't have affected Excel the way that it did.
Ongoing event - Student Council and the Upcoming Elections
I'm running for Student Council vice-president. I'm surprised that I feel comfortable expressing so many of my difficulties in light of the upcoming elections but I've never been the kind of person to hold things back because I was in the spotlight. Anyways, I'm running against Cati Crawford and Andrew Ericson, my roommate. I know! Real freakin' convenient!? As if I don't have enough turmoil with him, now we're competing against each other for the same position on StudCo. It's aight though. May the better man, or woman, win.
Concluding Remarks
So, I've just ranted for like 30 minutes about how much my life sucks. It may seem very selfish but in reality I'm not. It's just about time that I vented a little. Everyone has to express their emotions every once in a while or life would be boring as hell. Anyways that's all
I have time to say right now. My bed is calling my name. Goodnight.
