<p>My day was sucky. Arrgh, I say. </p>
<p>Would you like to know why?</p>
<p>Yes I would?</p>
<p>Why???????</p>
<p>I think the "arrgh, I say" is a clue.</p>
<p>Were you subjected to a merciless pirate attack?</p>
<p>I wanna know why too. Vent and Rant... IT HELPS! ;)</p>
<p>yes yes, we all appreciate a good vent :D</p>
<p>The main 2 things were that I was not elected to class secretary for next year (although I can still be a class representative) and I then went to the mailbox and discovered I had been rejected from a volunteer position at the hospital (but I can still volunteer at the library).</p>
<p>I'm okay now. Secretary isn't a position I really wanted; I wanted to run again for vice president, but I thought I would have a better chance at secretary. Unfortunately, the person whom I thought was my biggest competition also thought the same thing. </p>
<p>As for the volunteering, I had already all but decided I wasn't going to do it if accepted because the max number of hours is 4 a week (32 total). Total waste. The library is alll goood; I was there last year.</p>
<p>At least you weren't attacked by pirates, eh? They still exist. Be wary.</p>
<p>yarrrrrrrrrrrrrr</p>
<p>snoop, I had similar set backs that you have now. I got into Penn and all those other kids who beat me for officer positions, etc. didn't. Now they're going to random state schools and stuff and I'm an Ivy Leaguer. It all works out in the end when you get into UChicago and the rest of them are in Community College working at McDonald's.</p>

<p>I love you, Venkat. I love you. ;)</p>
<p>You know, the people who did make officer, they were the last people I would have picked. It's a giant popularity contest, I tell you.</p>
<p>And not community college. They'll either go to the local state university or UT. Either way, sucks for them!</p>
<p>My second favorite UChicago alum, Tucker Max says this about UT</p>

TheCousin and I went back to his place, and he took a shower, scrubbing himself like a rape victim. He had a late English class that day, and I decided to tag along and see what it was like. I went to public school in Kentucky, and I say this now with full understanding of the meaning: That class, a 300-level class, was possibly the biggest farce of education I have ever seen. I've heard 14-year old meth-addicted Thai prostitutes say more prescient things than the woman that was supposedly a "professor." I had a hard time believing that this was a class. I wish I could give you recap of the conversation, but that would be like trying to recount the disjointed ramblings of a senilic nursing home sewing circle. That "school" is a joke. I would have learned more watching a Special Olympics spelling bee.

<p>Yup yup, that sounds about right. And even some of the 'smart' kids at my school have to go there for the in state scholarship. Tehe. But I shouldn't laugh, I might end up there. :o</p>
<p>Who's your first favorite UChicago alum? I need to do some research. </p>
<p>And Tucker Max is incorrect about dry counties; rednecks love their beer. But Kentucky, I dunno. Sundays are the only days sobriety is enforced.</p>
<p>Vonnegut. Though Tucker Max is my favorite UChicago undergrad.</p>
<p>I see. But I must do more research.</p>
<p>To the lab!</p>
<p>Aww.... that is a sucky day =(</p>
<p>The same thing (kind of) happened to me... I was a rep freshman year and applied again... but I wasn't chosen. About three weeks later, though, I realized that I had hated Student Council, and my rejection was actually a blessing in disguise. So, after three weeks of bleeehhhness, maybe you'll realize that you hate Student Council, too =) It's a wonderful feeling... knowing that you'll be free of stupid, unproductive meetings for the rest of HS...</p>
<p>But that's partly why I like government, I don't have to always worry about being the smartest person in the room, which is what people expect of me.</p>
<p>SNOOOOOOOOOOP,</p>
<p>You could always go like Snoop Dogg on the guys who stole your position
