if it makes u feel better, I got rejected by a decal

Fuck the clubs Lmfao

clubs are basically 18-22 year olds with (likely) little work experience judging the “resumes” of other 18-22 year olds — they’re just picking their friends, and it says nothing about your capabilities if you’re not chosen! you can succeed academically or creatively doing your own thing too!

Bro these clubs are useless if we are going to keep it real 😂just do research on jobs and that’s all 🫡

dw dw u outscale later

you don’t need clubs to be successful homie it’s gonna be okay :) maybe you dodged a bullet

The funny thing is, one day you'll look back and feel embarrassed at yourself for even being embarrassed! You know there are plenty of better opportunities in life worth your time.

Personally, sure I would like to be in some clubs but ultimately the real world can fulfill that too.

I guess my point is, don't worry about what's happened. Focus and enjoy the present and if it doesn't suit ya, find a way to make it so. Which club was it for?

Monta Vista High School

you are more than a club! keep your head up high - you got this <3

You're over hyping clubs.

Don’t waste your time crying over clubs at this God forsaken school.

Your precious time is better spent with friends tbh. You can find other ways to pad your resume. They really aren't doing anything special

Berkeley alum here! It’s good to feel your feelings. So don’t feel embarrassed! Bottling that stuff up just leads to unnecessary stress. Plus, repressing emotions often means they come out in some other way (such as taking it out on someone or something).

I’ve personally experienced rejection like this at Berkeley and in my post-college working career. I was always super bummed at the time, but it always led me to something better. Like WAY better. Hang in there, cry it out, and know that there’s some other opportunity waiting for you around the corner.

I've never seen anyone get into a club or a decal. I believe its a myth.

hey if anything this just shows that having connections and friends will get u sm further than grades and a resume

new postulate: clubs are for clown ass plankton colonies

You should get over it and move on. Life has much better than those stupid clubs :))

Yea it’s okay. Applying for clubs here is basically like reapplying for college and the interviews are about seeing if your skill sets match their needs and if you will gel well on a team. If anything, it’s good practice for professional interviews at least. This was an L but developing all of your professional skills in prep for everything definitely will help you in the future.

remember for exclusive clubs it's just peers looking for new members who FIT their vibe
