So yesterday we lost the bucket. I'm really not a very competitive person but when I heard the words "second place to the seniors", I really lost it. I think every Groves student looks forward to being a senior and winning the bucket as the seniors always do. But the Class of 2015 sure did make history. Being the second senior class to ever lose the bucket to the juniors really does not feel great. I think the main upset lies with the whole concept of "seniors always win the bucket" rather than just losing a competition. I didn't get to stand on top of my friends car with the bucket in one hand and our class flag in the other and I will never be able to do that. It seems dumb to care about something so trivial but the idea of a senior year without winning the bucket is excruciating. Congratulations to the juniors because they obviously deserved it if we didn't even do well enough for a senior win to be viable by the people that could have rigged it. I can't wait to see the juniors holding the bucket in Instagram photos next year with their captions "two wins is better than one." Do I seem bitter?
