Exasperated Ant

I'm in the AIAS - U.C.Berkeley Chapter, and I love it. I love being involved at my school and all that jazz, and I love having a say in what happens with my future profession. It's a great feeling and I intend on remaining close with those who I've been on the board with.

We had elections today for who would be on the board next year, and everything went great! There was a descent turn-out, like 25 people, lol, 1/4 of the actual club (including officers - sad...) and everyone got to vote.

Don't you love a democratic society?

I sure do.

Unless I'm the one who is counting the ballots.




At first I thought I had the easy job, but then when I saw the look of a potential officer's face after she thought she didn't make it on the board, I felt so bad for her! She really wanted me to just tell her whether she had made it or not, and maintaining integrity, I told her it would be unfair of me to do so & to tell her before everyone else got to find out too.

She was pretty upset, to say the least.



Anyway, the question is, should I have told her or not? I wasn't the only officer who knew what was going on. The right thing to do would've been simply to not count the ballots near where she was, but everything is different in retrospect so...

I think I did the right thing - I think it was unfair of her to ask me to tell her. Maybe I'm making a big deal out of this, but I think she actually made a bigger deal about it by getting so upset instead of just waiting until ALL the officers found out simultaneously who made it.

Either way she'll find out tonight. So though curiosity may have killed the cat... hopefully anticipation won't exasperate the ant!

foreign tampons.

coming soon.

TWITCH

so, i've been very stressed lately, and i have noticed that i have developed a twitch just under my right eye. it is invisible to others, but quite possibly the most annoying thing since the inception of earth.

the body is a magnificently confusing thing. why, in God's name, would it cause a portion of one's body to TWITCH when one is irritated? this seems rather counter-productive.

as amazing as the body is, it still has some major flaws. Yes, such as my new twitch.

And, it is for this reason that I believe in evolution.








In Merriam Webster, the third definition of twitch is " to undergo a brief spasmodic muscular contraction"

First of all, we must ask what the first definition is:

1 : pull, pluck (twitched at my sleeve)

Second, we must ask what the second definition is:

2 : to move jerkily : quiver




I cannot understand why those two definitions would come before the third definition. It seems to me that the most relevent information would be that which concerns one's own body, no matter what the word or etymology.

Therefore, I propose that Merriam is fired, and that all of those who believe that God created us are killed to meet their maker, while the rest of us can finally stop twitching because of all that is ridiculous with the world.

an apology

to those who actually stumble across this.. i started the blog swearing tat i wouldn't write anything particularly personal in here, but it is TOUGH to avoid. especially because seometomes that is actually more interesting than anything else.

but anyway

later i want to kind of evaluate why drama is sometimes more interesting than something intellectual.

so much shit

1. talk to american embassy in germany

hindi:
lagta hai ki mein ek work-a-holic hoon. mera life boring lagta hai agar mein HAR CHEEZ nai karrahihoon. kabhi kabhi mein sochti hoon ki jab mein mar jaaungi tho ek bhi cheez jo meinei shuru kiya, vo long list se, koi bhi cheez meine khatham nai kiya.

mera goal is saal ka hai ki mein JO shuru karungi, khatham BHI karungi.

shaiyad isliye mein itni pagal horahihoon germany ke peechay. Aur isliye bhi mein itni pagal horahihoon maxi ke class mein, kyoonki mujhe har sabh ko dikhaana hai ki mein jo shuru karti hoon khatham bhi karsakti hoon.
