I think I had a breakdown today. Another assignment, as trivial as it is. I’m not going to the barbeque. I might change my mind and go to the awards.
I won my first ever scholarship today. I feel happy. It’s not like $1,500 is a lot, but there is actually such a thing as a scholarship “awarded solely on the basis of academic merit!” I wasted all that time writing all of those essays for scholarships that accounted for financial need. =.= My friends are attending a scholarship reception tonight. Most people win that one. But of course, you fill out that little section about income and assets, and bye-bye scholarship. =.= $2,500 from the local charity organization that I ironically volunteered for. Ahaha. Speaking of which, I guess the people felt as if I deserved something for volunteering, so they gave me an envelope after the event. There was a check for $50. I didn’t feel like returning it, because it was the first check I had ever received for working… but I never cashed it in, because it was volunteer work. I think I lost it.
Man.
Now that I think about it, why do I put up with all of the things I’ve put up with? I’m volunteering to help people, and all I get is complaints half the time (not for them, but for other organizations…)
It’s annoying. =.=
If you don’t appreciate my taking time to do something for you, then tell me and I’ll quit. Simple as that.
I wonder who Robert C. Byrd is. At least the $1,500 is renewable.
