The article and letter was a good way to get these things explained. I guess I'm a bit biased because I'm in L2 and actually see what you guys go through and how tired you are because of senior activities. I hope that more people show gratitude towards you guys because you deserve it, and we don't want you to pull a Turner. I hate that people in leadership positions are blamed for things like weak participation and the fact that certain people don't know about fundraisers because it's really their own inaction and indifference that causes problems.

And Laura is cute. ;)

pull a Turner. hahaha. don't worry i won't do that, i promise.

at the beginning of the year, i must admit, even i thought L2 was a slacker class. however, as the year progressed, i saw how much hard work everyone puts into their projects... dances, assemblies, slideshows, friday activities, etc. it made me realize that you can't really bad mouth something until you're "on the inside" or have done it yourself.

that's one of the flaws this senior bashing article has--the writer has not walked in our shoes and thus, does not and cannot SEE the amount of time, dedication, and effort we give. it's a shame.

and elaine is cute too. she has very pretty hair. :)
