Dear Mu Alpha Theta....

The recent national convention has been, in general, a failure. From the awful t-shirt color to the cheese-colored yolk, there are quite a few things that are wrong with it. Let me list out a few:

1. Tests - this area has probably the most complaints (along side with the dispute centers which is the same sector).The alpha matrices and vectors test is awful in terms of the editing that went into it. Mr. Wiggins writes awesome tests and is an awesome person in general, but this test is so mutilated that it might appear on lolzcats. I'm not even going to go into number theory...

Did I mention that there wasn't enough disputes sheets throughout all the rounds? And the impossibly hard alpha team test...? Enough said.

2. My food journel (if I kept one):

Day 1: Oo all you can eat stuff, this is going to be awesome! And unlimited drinks! Hmm, the desert is slightly bad though...
Day 2: Hmm, this food is starting to taste bland. The eggs are getting rubbery and the lunch is not as filling.
Day 3: GAHH, help me!!! The cheese looks like egg yolk and tastes like it too. I can't stand this! asdfja;lsdfjcn2
Day 4: Boycott of the food (dies next day).

3. From day one, there was door prizes given out. Lets just say the prizes weren't top notch. I wasn't expecting Ti-89s for everyone... but Air Force hats? Really? Also, the trophies weren't exactly "rewarding." Compared to last years spinny ones, the shiny ones, and the awesome ones, this years kind off sucked. The team medals for each members doesn't even have straps. Oh, and the hotel (particularly the Holiday Inn), I could write a whole letter to them... (people need towels in particular). The whole thing had a taste of cheapness to it. Somehow, everything seemed a bit cheap.

So next time when you organize a national convention (ie Washington DC), please at least edit your tests. It's not fun when you see on an answer choice another variable that wasn't even mentioned in the question.

Also, next time, please screen your hotels for their quality. I personally liked my bed to be made daily and having a jacket on the bed is not an excuse to not make it. Also, give us towels everyday! You try to get towels from a girl while you're naked...

I'm not saying the convention wasn't fun, it was great fun, but it just could be a lot better.

  1. Hm... I'm glad that PHS sucks too much to consider letting me go then aside from missing Dollywood.

    Also, Google Chrome gave me a warning coming to your site.

    Yay.
