A Thread About Absolutely Nothing! Part II

Ok, I have a quick question to that AD'ers that are up right now. So, I got invited to an award dinner thing - a bit formal. Anyway, I wrote saying that I couldn't attend and the lady wrote back saying...well, we were going to give you "Student of the Year Award" and she suggested that I find someone eles to cook (I live in a house with 14 people, and we rotate cooks). But truth be told, I cannot be getting this award for academic reasons - I'm barely passing - because I can't get notetakers or support- which is another story. This award is being given by a diversity organization on campus. So, I feel like I'm getting this award because of my hearing loss. Is it rude of me to tell them that I feel uncomfortable accepting this award. I want to be judged on the same standard as everyone else - even though the playing fields feel a little unequal right now. Any thoughts? I think I am going to turn it down and state them to respect that decision.
 
Ahhh, I have Monday off, a full day of laziness coming up.

rude? no absolutely nothing wrong at all. If you feel that you're getting a pity award cuz of your deafness, then address it to her. express it to her that you want to be judged on the same standard as everybody else.

good luck.

Why?

Someone probably ran over a gartersnake and left it behind for her to find.

Happened to someone I know this morning.

Apparently the whole scenario invoked memories of Secret of NIM.

:lol: That's a good try Souggy! It's actually because I am allergic to cut grass and I was enjoying my time outside. The weather is so nice, but I had to come in because I couldn't take it anymore! :(
 
Anyone have any exciting weekend plans?
