Who wants to take over the 2nd annual EOY Extravaganza?
Hello all! So it's getting to December and we need to start considering the End of the Year Extravaganza!
Namely:
1) Do we as a Seasons community want to do it again this year?
2) If yes, can anyone take over?
I'm sorry to say that my life is not particularly conducive to EOY Extravaganzas right now--I mean, let's be honest, I'm barely making it through my season that I hosted at the beginning of October (I know, I know, I'm sorry!). Fact of the matter is that my life is insane and it's only going to get worse in the coming weeks and month. Between reading for my thesis, wrangling native Spanish speakers into proofreading my transcriptions (because the ones in Göttingen are actually the slowest creatures on the planet--3 weeks to add accent marks and commas to 8 pages? Seriously?), going home for Christmas, writing my thesis, briefly relocating to Switzerland and then actually relocating to Mongolia, it is safe to say that I have zero time for anything and optimism does not a scheduling break make. So I can't do it. I really, really wanted to, but I just can't.
But I am more than happy to pass on the the title of Ringmaster if anyone feels up to taking over! You can put your own spin on it and run it however you want! Also it's fun.
Love,
Me

Edit: For those of you who have come into the seasons in the last year, here's last year's video for reference:
Warning: It is long and silly.
Edit edit: Dear whoever wants to take over the seasons: don't feel like the EOY has to be this intensive. This came from a sweet, sweet time in my grad school career when my life wasn't awful
