This edition of Night in the Life comes in the form of imagined conversations between Benjamin Makansi and Vivek Ramakrishnan–a.k.a. Ben and Viv, your notoriously fearless leaders of CCSC.
10:59 pm
Ben: Oh crap! We forgot to send an email about CCSC!
Viv: Are you sure we did anything this week?
B: I don’t know! All of the meetings are running together…
V: Crap.
B: But we still have to send an email.
V: We do?
B: Yes! It’s one of the few things we promised in our campaign.
V: I don’t think we promised that.
B: We promised meeting minutes!
V: …on Facebook.
B: We didn’t say anything about an email?
V: Nope.
B: I think we still have to send one.
V: Is it in the bylaws?
11:53 pm
V: We’ve been looking for almost an hour. I don’t think it’s in the bylaws.
B: Me neither, but not sending an email would feel…dirty.
V: Fine, we’ll write the damn email.
B: Ok. Good.
V: Did we do anything in CCSC?
B: I told you I can’t remember.
V: Let’s just check the minutes.
12:15 am
V: Why aren’t the minutes on Facebook?
B: That’s literally one of the only things we promised!
V: I know! Who controls the Facebook page?
B: Just email everyone on CCSC. They won’t mind.
12:17 am
B: I think I accidentally emailed the whole school.
V: Fuck, again?
B: Yea.
V: Does that mean we don’t have to send an email about the meeting?
B: I’m pretty sure we still need to do that.
V: Damn.
12:37 am
B: I think we should have a theme.
V: What?
B: A theme. For the email.
V: What the fuck are you talking about?
B: Like, make it Halloween themed.
V: We’re not using gifs.
B: Chill, we don’t have to.
V: We don’t have to have a theme?
B: No, we don’t have to have gifs. I think we need a theme.
V: Fine.
1:14 am
V: You misspelled “spooky.”
B: No, it’s a thing.
V: And “creepy.”
B: Dude, no, leave it alone.
V: No one is going to get it.
B: They don’t have to.
V: This whole email is pointless.
B: That’s harsh.
1:20 am
V: I’m sorry that I said the email was pointless.
B: It’s ok.
1:22 am
B: Should we make a Deantini reference?
V: Too soon.
1:49 am
B: I think it’s perfect.
V: Me too.
B: Should we send it?
V: Wait! It needs something else.
B: You just agreed that it was perfect.
V: I changed my mind.
B: It’s just an email!
V: Hey now…
B: What could it possibly need?
V: I think we should make a video.
B: What?!
V: Let’s make a video and add it to the email.
B: It’s not the worst idea we’ve had…
4:01 am
V: Did it upload?
B: Yea, it’s ready. Adding it to the email now.
V: Hit send. I’m tired.
B: Uh oh.
V: What?
B: “File too big to attach.”
V: You’re kidding.
B: It’s fine, we’ll just cut it down.
4:40 am
B: Still says, “File too big to attach.”
V: We have to just send it without the video.
B: What? No!
V: Yes. We have to.
B: But…
V: We’ll save the video for a rainy day. Then we can share it on Facebook.
B: Alright.
V: Send the email.
B: Ok. Done.
V: Good.
B: I have to tell you something.
V: What?
B: I added a shoutout to Deantini.
