don't you get the feeling that once you've been to one api issues conference you've been to them all? there is a vital reason why we have annual api issues conferences (not to keep all of us student-activists busy every spring) and that's the crucial duty of digging deep into what's new this year, to look back at history through the new lens of today, to interpret the news and the media and see our own reflections in them. how can students feel that talking about the war on terror is beyond us, too complex, too foreign, too abstract and not about us? if we feel that way, what's the point of an undergrad degree if we can't even read the news properly?

just whining. the meeting went well though.

oh, and how am i supposed to raise funds for a fundraiser?
