twenty years it's breaking you down
the name is vanessa but everybody calls me van. estranged ex-NJCanoeist of 2004/05 K2-500m. I'm a WSO (FIGHTER) trainee and I'm doing my BA(Hons) English and Politics in the University of York. I like fast cars, literature, art and tulips. I cannot cook. When I was younger I wanted to be an astronaut. I am hopeless at math or anything remotely related to formulae. I detest parsley. I love the colour burgundy. My Macbook is my bestfriend and I've played with Macs since I was 15 so no, I didn't jump on the bandwagon. I have lofty dreams but I'm often afraid to chase them. I don't get angry I get disappointed. I intend to learn Spanish and German. Oh, and I think Liverpool kicksmajorass - I am not a fair-weathered fan. I think ambiguity is beautiful.

Laaaayydees and Geeentlemennn, standing on one side of the ring, weighing a total of 700kg we have... THE GIRLS TEAM! Aaaaaannnd, on the other side, weighing a total of approximately 1500kg, we have THE GUYS TEAM!!!! Oh no, look, who's that sandwiched in the centre??
Name: Vanessa
Age: 17
Weight: <50kg

Post: Ex-co Non Portfolio
Job Description: MEDIATOR between both guys and girls team.

Yes, so what's an Exco NonPort supposed to do? I think we can create a new post in the Exco - Liaison Officer. Why do the girls always have to make me the one who discusses stuff with the guys? Team chalet tomorrow. "Oh, let Van plan with Chunhow and Junxu cos she's more outgoing". Let Van do this let van do that. Van's closer with the guys. So, van, go tell the guys stuff! What's the POINT of having a team-bonding chalet if the girls don't wanna get involved themselves???

I honestly don't know what to do anymore. I feel really trapped in the middle, like I'm always the bridge between the two teams. We need to gel, and somehow I've been telling everyone that but no one seems interested. The team needs Yong to tell us to mingle before we mingle. Whatever happened to sincerity? I'm sick and tired of having "Social I/C" in my job description. I just feel like I'm totally making a fool of myself, encouraging everyone to mix around and seeing no response. I'm drained, and I wash my hands off the team bonding fiasco. It's their team too, not mine alone.
