Rant post.
So. Results from this writing competition I entered came back today. FUCKING SECOND.
SECOND. IS FIRST. LOSER.
I HAVE WON EVERY OTHER YEAR.
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.
And then I get a call from Dr. W relaying information from the state coordinator saying that there was a hair’s width between me and first and that the evaluator says it was a hard decision. And that the coordinator says she wishes they could pay my fee for internationals.
Well. Why can’t you? Just cuz the rules say you only pay for first’s doesn’t mean you can pay for mine. Farimae Tate. I know you like me. Just pay my fee. Or better yet, just say that I won. I think that’s how life works, yah?
