aggienaut | 15 of 30 - Year in Review (Reply)

   Holy crap we're half-way through 30 in 30. And I was just getting started! I must say this is a LOT easier than the 30 in 14 I attempted last year, having gotten started at it a year ago tomorrow.
   Anyway, I think its about time for the annual year in review. Well first lets review last summer because I always mean to make an executive summary at the end, in fact am much more enthusiastic about that summarizing the school year, but never get around to it. If I recall correctly I'd wanted to note that whats-his-name the Diedrichs security guard was awesome, as well as Tristan and Cheri who are also totally the cutest couple ever. But anyway, on to the academic year.

   Well, this year wasn't as exciting as other years. For example I didn't get get kicked in the head while unconscious nor did people in ASUCD try to remove me or anything. But the Court did face its greatest challenge of the last three years: a complete lack of cases. Having had no cases filed this year, certain senators that hate justice began to lick their lips and get excited, while some justices became restless and riotious. Its only a matter of time at this point before Justice Raff goes on a mad frisbeeing spree on the third floor.
   A veritable revolution did hit ASUCD however, with a new third party, The Friends Urging Campus Kindness party and independants taking the polls by storm. Previously it was thought that Student Focus' TheFacebook.com group represented a huge base of support, with (at this moment) 176 members as opposed to Lead which at the time had as I recall no more than 60 members. Now the Lead facebook group has 325 members though. The Urger group however, has 2250 members at this time, making it the biggest group of any type at Davis. This represented a huge change of mentality at the top of ASUCD, a huge increase in student interest in ASUCD, and a huge diversification of the ASUCD Senate
   Also, interestingly, former ASUCD comptroller Cameron Menezes allegedly believed that I had masterminded the entire Friends Urging Campus Kindness movement.
   Despite this I was largely uninvolved in ASUCD politicking (which also involved a record number of resignations this past year), but I made up for it by carrying on a War on Wrong on other fronts, such as in the Model UN club and with saucy letters to the editor about tomato harvesting behaviour. This apparently almost did result in my being removed from MUN... despite the fact that I got twice as many awards this year in MUN as the rest of the club combined, and altogether probably have somewhere around four to five times as many awards as the rest of the club combined career wise... but of course I don't know whats best for MUN and want to destroy the system because I'm self destructive or something apparently...
   Otherwise... I became a total frat boy sell-out by joining Phi Alpha Delta, Pre-Law international (coed fraternity). alvin_tsao always makes fun of me when I say that and really, I wouldn't say it if it was even close to being true. We're all a bunch of nerds in actuality. Also I had jury duty which I thought was exciting enough to note here, and I didn't even get selected. But I did have a veritable conversation with the prosecution about my mohawk and my philosophies while under oath. Kristy and I spreaded the glory that is the brass monkey, and just recently invented a brand new drink, thus haivng a positive effect on local culture and society. Also of course I've been dating Kristy all year and she's the awesome. And finally, I didn't finish in four, because finishing in four is overrated. I think I'll be here two more quarters.

   And now, I really have no idea at all what I'll be doing all summer, or at any point really.

   For extra awesome points you can try to find my livejournal entries about events mentioned here, since I didn't bother to go back and find them. The person who finds the most wins a twinkie!!
