Angelina Jolie is Weeping

So I got a rather strange email today from the director of student services. She told me that I had been nominated for a community service award called the David Woods Award for Humanitarianism and that I should email her my resume and a list of all my college and non-college related community service.

What?

For one thing, I have never really done anything at my school, except maybe I half-attended some feminist club meeting or something. Other than that, I don’t really get involved in school. I’m not really a “school activities” kind of girl anyways, when I am not in class I am gone, end of story.

First, I quickly scanned my brain to make sure that I didn’t write some lie and said I was all super involved in volunteering and helping homeless orphaned cats or something, which I didn’t. Then I had to send a rather embarrassing email to this woman explaining that I am a selfish asshole who hasn’t done anything to help anyone or be involved in any community. But you know, whatevs.

I went to my school’s website and I read a description of the award. I mean, I guess it would be kind of awesome to get it, and in the event that they didn’t just confuse me with someone else (the woman did misspell my name in the email), maybe they “nominated” me because I have such good grades! I wasn’t aware that I had good grades because I haven’t checked my grades in a year when I officially gave up on caring about school.

Anyways, in case any of you were wondering: no, I am not an admirable, helpful, involved person.
