tours of sorts

*update*

This very special day we welcome the return of the stupid. Nothing like starting a dreary and cold day with a math quiz and homework. Major paper due later this week? Conic section equations in three dimensions? Please bludgeon me.

Not to mention Purdue is threatening to break my kneecaps if I don't get this registration thing settled yesterday. I am quickly coming to realize "please see your advisor" is a bullshit term. Other alternatives might include "please see my bitchy secretary" or "your bank has not paid us- fix that", or even "this isn't the form you're looking for".

What I don't understand is... when you owe a bookie a lot of money, and he, say, blows off one of your toes, you still owe him the money. Doesn't seem fair to me.

>later that day
This is turning into a terrible, horrible, no good very bad day.
I really want to stomp on something or somebody. After class today, I ran all over campus, attempting to fix this scheduling business:

1 stupid form.
9 different offices in 6 different buildings.
2 missed busses.
1 bookbag coming apart between buildings.
2 of 5 signatures collected.
16,000+ dollars still owed.
7 days to fix this, or I answer to Hillenbrand's goons.


0 patience left.

  2. I think you KNOW how to deal with the "these aren't the forms you're looking for" problem.

    Or do Jedi mind tricks only work in the movies?

  3. Wanna go get 'em?
    I say we go get 'em
    I'm gonna get 'em

    Let me tell you, there is no shortage of bitch around here. Every secretary here consumes 500 mg of it a day. I'm pretty sure anyone that believes they're marginally important consumes bitch as well.
