Today did not end with a good note. We had a Newspaper meeting afternoon, supposedly brief, mainly to assign articles and stuff. The thing is, we have a "short" LOL meeting at the same time too. So theoretically if I attend either one of them I'd miss the other. I considered this matter and decided to go to newspaper meeting first for the following reasons: 1) Newspaper is more important to me than LOL; 2) I have to talk to my group of layout ppl about the upcoming production; 3) BigA is not the type of person who would end a conversation like presenting LOL book in fifteen minutes. So within seconds after I stepped into the newspaper room, Bahar rushed in and told me that she only had a few people over there in the LOL meeting and wanted me to help out BigA and this meeting will be very short and blah blah blah. I was VERY reluctant and yet she dragged me to Mr. Lawlor and asked for his permission if she can take not only me but also Kyu Chul and Gene-or someone else who is at least an editor.
I mean, WHAT IS SHE THINKING? I have my own priorities and so does everyone else! Kyu has to assign articles and talk to his crew and SO DO I. Perhaps newspaper isn't her priority and as the assistant-editor-in-chief she doesn't have any personal duty at this meeting but OTHER EDITORS DO. I can't betray my own commitment just to accommodate HER needs so she can fulfill HER duties as the president of the LOL club. I was tried to talk to her about that outside the classroom and tell her that I can't leave the meeting because I'm sure by the time I come back everybody would be GONE! And the freshmen layout ppl would think that I'm an irresponsible ass! But Bahar for some reason did not hear me or did not bother to respond to me and just walked away without even turning back to see if I was actually following her.
For all means, I LOVE the SCP book. I MADE THAT GODDAMN BOOK. Yes LOL planned this meeting wayy ahead of time, unlike the newspaper meeting. But I still have my priorities and principles and I'm NOT responsible for whatever misery and embarrassment that she had to go through just because she isn't charismatic leader!
