Self-schedule makes a return and everything wasn't auto-assigned by alphabetical order...Not sure how to express my gratitude in typing...
:!: :D :D (that's how you do it; also, :!: :D :D )

Unfortunately my two best events (Fossils and Anatomy) conflict (but that only matters if we make it, which I'm not so sure about). Reminds me all over again why I liked Georgia B so much.
GGGGRRRRRRRR why why why why why do Hydrogeology and Astronomy conflict!? The're both earth science events!!! At least they should be, Hydrogeology is in no way an "inquiry" event; no WIDI or experimental design person is going to know what the permiability of limestone is AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH


EDIT: Oh wait, Exp design and Hydrogeology conflict, even though they are both inquiry...because that makes sense....


Sorry, raging. But still...

Just came across a picture of this guy I coached last year holding a purse. If he loses any bets this year (since he's now my co-coach), that's his new profile picture.

Actually, iirc last year a personal essay was a part of the tryout process for my high school team.
