Positives:
Hell yeah, spring carnival! I don’t know about everyone else, but the alluring scent of fried dough and the sight of cheerful smiling faces (coupled with rickety, heavy machinery) is what makes a carnival a carnival…and by golly, that was one gosh darn good event! Kudos to you SCOPE: I tip my hat to you!
My last positive for the Charger Battery for the year is….you! Yes, you, the one reading this right now. You have made it a very good year for me and for that I thank you! Forget about anyone else: it is you, my favorite reader, who has made writing the Battery such a special thing for me! So always remember that deep down in my heart that you are my favorite!
Negatives:
You know what really grinds my gears? When people get pissed at people in charge of an event because of their own foolishness or because of rules set forth by the university that, frankly, we can’t change! I’m sorry!
I know some people who don’t want this reminder but…the seniors are graduating and to be quite honest I am going to miss quite a few of them! Even though this is not a wholly negative thing at the moment, it is to me because I won’t be able to see all my smiling senior friends’ faces everyday next year. It brings a tear to my eye :’(
The Battery Charge:
Okay people, I have had a chance to overhear many-a conversation this past week, and many touch upon the question “What do you mean the concert tickets are sold out? Capacity is only 1500? Why don’t you change it? What do you mean it’s set by the fire marshal? So you mean I’m shit out of luck?” By the way, this lovely conversation went on an hour before ticket sales officially ended, and consisted of a girl yelling at the person in charge. Another lovely conversation I heard consisted of, “what do you mean I can’t go in to see the comedian without an ID!? You know why you have these crappy policies? Because you are a crappy university, what’s the number for the RA? I’ll get him fired for taking my ID for sign in.”
People, if you think it’s a bad university, then don’t go to our events. Stop bitching about life so much; you don’t always get what you want. If you want to see any concert, you don’t wait ‘til the last minute to get tickets. You pick them up as soon as possible…duh.
