About to speak to my professor [Professor Abdulhadi, the one who teaches my class on Palestine] to hopefully gather information on the history of the General Union of Palestine Students [GUPS] and increase our online presence, because our group was decimated and we’re slowly but surely trying to rebuild it and bring it back to the powerhouse it once was.
I plan on starting a centralized website and blog to document all this information and hopefully use it to spread more awareness about the group, our motives, and through this awareness, hopefully open up more chapters around the world, therefor increasing membership and making us a force capable of combating Israeli groups like Hillel.
I’ve been on campus for the last 13 hours working on stuff so hopefully I’m not rambling, but yeah, I’m really hoping that this all manages to take off.
My bestie camp up with the idea to give herself points for every time she felt like a grown up, she subtracts points for immature things, she would keep track of them all day then add them up at the end of the day. These points are called gup’s (grown up points), here are my grown up points for today.
-waking up at 10 am for my 10 am class -2
-texting during that class -1
-not showering this morning, because I was late -1
-tumbling during another class -1
-buying a 32 oz pop instead of 16 -1
-working on my part of a group project (twice) +2
-finishing the rest of my homework +1
-going grocery shopping +1
-lazing on the couch rather than going to yoga -1
-eating a giant spoon of cookie dough -1
-wasting my night away reminding myself of someone from the past -2
-staying up much to late when I have to get up early in the morning -1
Daily Total = -7
I fail as a grown up.
