Watch out for the medallion, my diamonds are reckless

Tonight's events give me all the more reason not to miss rockwall, the school, the people and the town. Of course, there are the elite few that will be missed, but for the most part, I am extremely ready to get out of this metaphorical/literal bubble.

One of few good things about the awards ceremony was that there was no euro award; therefore, no upsets among the hopefuls, and that mr. randolph has the best pauses and expressions when opening ceremonies. (::scans room with marine-like glance for a few seconds::) Along with the majority of the attendees, I received no local scholarship money from any "charitable organization." However, some recipients who already had copious amounts of financial aid from their colleges still got checks hand over fist. Is it because I'm white? Or maybe it's because I'm going to ut and not a&m. Wait, I know, it's because I don't go tanning. I have yet to understand why so many deserving applicants and students who interviewed got little more than a scrap of calligraphied paper for their years of scholastic, extracurricular and character achievements. There were many people who have done so much in school and out that got recognition, and I don't grudge them that. In fact, I'm happy for people who needed economic aid for their tuition etc. and got it. I just wish that some of the awards had been more evenly distributed, instead of a select number making a clean sweep of the money.
Instead of dwelling on my lack of financial aid from the local bracket, I'll just settle with being a women's league, ncl, amica and aspasians reject.
Thus ends my pity party. If you have a similar situation, feel free to wallow with me. :D

The best comment of the three hour affair goes to rachel:
" 'So how much did you get at the local scholarship awards ceremony?'
'Actually nothing, but I won $10 from a scratch-off on the way home!' "
