"Life's what you make it...celebrate it."

Wow, it has been some time since I've posted something on here. It's been an interesting four months...to say the least.

I've gone in and out of being in school - yet again - but at least I will not be in Greenville for a year, away from everything I've worked on in the past three years.

I'm on the Big Three of the Model United Nations program here, though I would've preferred to have been the first male to be Secretary General in who knows how long. It should be a good time, though...I think everyone will like me the best. :)


My arch-nemesis has gotten under my skin even more, and I have sought out to crush his soul. I don't get into physical fights, but he continues to step closer to the non-physical boundary.

I'm the President of WOOF! Woo! It's going to be an awesome year! Our first topic will be sex and sexuality! I miss Shaylin already, though. :( After two years of working with her, it's going to be so weird to lead a baby that isn't mine. Such is life, I suppose. My friends are in the cabinet, though, so it should be a really great experience. We'll have to find two freshmen that would be interested in the same number of positions as we all are seniors...and will need someone to lead the way once we depart. That's going to be the weirdest feeling ever - leaving WOOF. I also am the President of the Progressive Student Network, as well as the Vice President of the College Democrats! Not only that, but I am the co-chair of the Policy team for the state's student environmental network, which is in the process of obtaining a new name. Annnnd, I'm on the SEAC National Council! Seriously, what the fuck am I thinking?

I still want to run for office next year. I have no idea how I'd do it...I'm going up against a Republican in a district full of them...but it also has Democrats, so I may have an outside chance. The biggest issue now is that I may not graduate until the Fall of 2010, which is the semester of the election. How could I balance a campaign and school, even though I wouldn't be taking many courses? How will I manage a campaign all on my own, assuming I don't find a campaign manager? Where the fuck am I going to find the money to battle Bruce Bannister?!?! I guess I could take out more money for "school," and go with that, and save some up through working for UN and SBRL. But if I decide to wait to run, what the hell am I going to do? Will I get a serious position with an environmental group? Will I be a bum in Rock Hill or Greenville, working at lame places for limited funds? Will I say "fuck everything here" and move to Michigan for eight years? I think I'd feel like I failed if I left the state, though, without any attempt at changing it...more than I've done by this point. Someone young and dedicated is needed to turn South Carolina around...and I often feel that is me...In fact, I know it is me.
