That was really weird. I just saw the Macy brothers. As in Eli and Sander(s?). I was just sitting and eating my dinner when all of a sudden, I see two people who look just like them! Weird. Anyhow, I've run out of time already, and need to get back to doing whatever is scheduled for this time.
Oy! It's been a while since I've had accessibility to a computer in order to update my webpage. I haven't been able to check my email recently either, so I hope I didn't get something important. Regardless, I'm just posting to say that I'm having a wonderful time here in Rockport (at the time) and in general at this 25th reunion @ Harvard for my dad. I'm thinking at the time that it was pretty stupid to leave my wallet in my other pants because I'm sincerely regretting not having any money. Well... I've got to leave in about 30 minutes, or rather, I'm supposed to be at the busses in 30 minutes, so I'm going to go find the rest of my group whom which I've been wandering around Rockport with. Boston Pops was fun yesterday, and John Williams is the man

ARGH! Trying to use a dryer in a downpour is a bad idea. Believe me. I have to though because I have to leave in... 56 minutes about.
Oh, and one more thing. I really don't like seventh graders. They're just really irritating on the whole. Out of all the seventh graders I've met, they don't stop being obnoxious until around eighth or ninth grade. At least not most of them.
Wow! The thing I just posted is much more in the spirit of random.thoughts than everthing else. Yay! I'm back on the trail to a good and well maintained babblesite.
I've figured it out. The reason I lost the election for treasurer is as follows: The initial elections, the normal school elections ended up with me and Jen tied for the position of treasurer. As a result, there was to be a re-vote. This re-vote was to take place on Friday (Last friday, being the second of June). It was to be given to students as they came into english class. This is because every single sophomore at some point has Ms. Marchand for english during the day. This did not happen. Apparently Ms. Marchand forgot first period of friday, and the entire re-vote was postponed until this recent Monday, that being the fifth of June. Yesterday, again the first period english class apparently missed out, and was supposed to have taken the vote as they went into Ms. Woods' class (being the world Geography teacher) and Ms. Marchand was to track down those who didn't see Ms. Woods during the day. The next day, being today, I found out in the morning that I lost the election, 34-31. I know of two people whom which were absent who have expressed that they would have voted for me (those people being Anthony M. and Nathan M.). However, I have no complaints about the people who were absent, because they wouldn't have been able to vote anyhow. I'm merely concerned that it seems about 20 people, or about a quarter of the class of 2002 here at Bromfield seemed to have not voted. People I've talked to didn't even know that there was to be a revote.

Based on the above, I've come to the conlusion that the reason I lost was due to the failure of the administrators of the revote to carry out their task. Both in lack of awareness, and lack of execution. Although all the teachers involved had very good reasons not to have been able to carry out the vote, namely Ms. Marchand was at a meeting, and it's perfectly reasonable that she wouldn't be able to give the vote from a meeting. Either way, although it won't happen, I'd like to request a re-vote, or recount or something that would allow me another fairer chance at treasurer. It just seems illogical that a revote would be held, in which part of the class was excluded. Although very unlikely, it is possible that the majority (as in more than 3 more than half) of the non-voters would have voted for me. If these people were excluded by the chance occurence that they had first period english and then didn't have Ms. Woods for Geo, it doesn't seem fair to me, as it could have just as easily occured that a class full of Jen supporters might have been inadvertently excluded.

Enough of this nonsensical babble. I don't mean to place the blame on anybody in particular, however, I do think that the circumstances surrounding my loss in the race for treasurer are a bit... cloudy.

With regards to the other post about spanish, I was doing spanish homework and it was no fun. In other words, it's not that I like other classes better than spanish, spanish just happened to be the class's homework I was doing at the time.
¡No me gusta español!
Todo:(Don't take this seriously...)

I've decided that school government is a joke.
Everything about it has taken on the appearnce of foolish to me. Also, how did 25% of the grade not vote? If the re-vote was mandatory for every person in an english class that day, I find it extraordinarily hard to believe that approximately 20 people were absent that day.
DAMN!

34-31 MY LOSS!!!!

I hate you all.
I still think I should have been treasurer.

People like Tyo have way too much free time. As demonstrated here.
People Like Tyo.
Some people are so alarmingly ignorant, that I feel bad when I try to explain things to them. I pity them.
