I think that in the frenzy to recruit new members, some clubs exagerate their features waay too much. Although I'm in FBLA, I'm not super obsessed with it or anything. That's why when I see little freshmen giggle "OMG I LOVE FBLA FOR LIFEEEE" I think they're a little weird.

You might think that FBLA-ers are professional high school students who are very very ahead of the rest. Sometimes we can be like that, but sometimes I think we're just kids dressed in oversized business suits. Let's look at the mishaps FBLA has encountered so far in the school year:

1) Unorganized tour planning--that's right, I think I was very unorganized when planning this first tour. But it's not all me; some parents need to learn how to freaking read.
2) Hotel rooming--We have to share a KING-sized bed with FOUR freaking people? We should have really confirmed this so earlier ago.
3) Last minute Prelims--I was called at 10 pm the night before my interview. I'm sorry, but people like me need to PREP. Even if it's an interview, I still like to go over questions and get comfortable with the event.
4) Random Assignments--I'm really pissed that I've been assigned to plan meetings and all this other shit that has nothing to do with the position of Social Manager.
5) Poster--it got embarressing after like a day.
6) Inactive Officers--some people deserve to be kicked out.
7) Effing favors--I've had to do so many "favors" for FBLA. Annie almost cornered me into selling two boxes of candy. NO NO NO!!! I had to buy some PMT because we had some left over. WHY? I told them to lower the ridiculous price of 2.50 to 2 at 3:45, 15 minutes before our selling is supposed to end. Instead, we waited until 4 to lower it, and sold like NOTHING!! USE YOUR BUSINESS SKILLS GODDAMMIT! WE'RE NOT FUTURE DUMASSES OF AMERICA!! (Well at least 99% of us aren't)

so that was stupid and FBLA is really pissing me off. We need some organization. my mom and dad think that FBLA is very unprofessional because they had to wait forever for someone to pick up the picnic stuff and are not pleased with how I have all this extra shit to do.
