Fridays as Weekend Starters

Student "edition" found at {thoughts dot com slash typed no space out no space loud slash blog}.

Maybe I shouldn't have started this blog now, not with everything that's been going on.

Guess what? I was not able to go to school yesterday again, two Fridays in a row I spent in Santo Tomas instead, again not by choice.

Last Thursday, by the way, was the second meeting of the different school representatives for the eco camp two weeks from now.

Sadly, I was alone and not accompanied by my co-chair engineer who was the one who told the eco champions by text about the meeting.

There was also the confusion that he before told me that the meeting of the tree planting program of the district would be two days ago instead of three. But then again I should by now be used to the inconsistency of this person in his text messages, and seek to clarify points I really need to know and verify.

But it would have been very convenient if I had been at that meeting where everyone else I needed to gather again was already present.

Sadly, there is most likely not going to be a next time when I can make use of that foresight in this context.

At least this time the secretary of the office of student affairs agreed to be at the meeting with me.

There were only five of us at the meeting this time, not like nine the first time around. At least the use of the board room in the office of the president was justified again, even though it was being fixed for the decentralized air conditioner. And I saw that the smaller conference room was being remodeled to be the office of the chancellor now, which is the new name for the chief operating officer.

We went over the four-day schedule again, going into more detail about the logistics and the things needed for the operations.

One of the schools present was the host last time that also used their caterers for the meals, in our home economics room.

They also gave the contact number for the same people this year, but they were foregone for the cooks this time around because our campus development officer and eco camp veteran did not like their food last year.

I just had to justify that it was because two midnight snacks were offered by the winning bidder.

It was also on that day that I realized a letter I composed in the middle of March was not received by the people I sent it to.

Instead I had given them a draft of a similar earlier letter that I had made, addressed to the partner schools instead of to the sponsors.

I was finally able to rectify that error, despite having that bad assumption they were the ones at fault for weeks.

It was not really too late, as even then the development, information and special projects officer made his own version of the letter I was able to send out on the same day with little revisions.

Yes, there is such a thing as having too much on your mind that some things get glossed over, I know that now.

Session 3049 really was in over his head. Class dismissed.
