MY TENTATIVE FALL '08 SEMESTER SCHEDULE, LET ME SHOW U IT


Monday
- CIE from 10 to 11 a.m. (CIE stands for Common Intellectual Experience, it's like their freshman seminar course thing. Apparently it's a good program because they're always pissing themselves over it XD)
- Japanese from 12 to 12:50.
- Contemporary Issues from 1:30 to 2:45 (because I'm thinking about minoring in Sociology.)

Tuesday
- Media and Society from 8:35 to 9:50. SO excited about that class, since it's one of the prerequisites for a lot of the classes in my intended major (Media and Communication Studies).
- Japanese from 12 to 12:50.

Wednesday
- CIE from 10 to 11.
- Contemporary Issues from 1:30 to 2:45.

Thursday
- Media and Society from 8:35 to 9:50.

Friday
- CIE from 10 to 11.

So I have to get up early on Tuesdays and Thursdays but I'm also done with classes for the day at one in the afternoon. So it's okay. XD;

Yeah so I was at Ursinus yesterday for a first-year orientation which is where the schedule came from. XD

Actually, orientation gave me a huuuuuge problem on Tuesday... See, I had a choice of doing orientation yesterday, Wednesday, and missing two finals that day, or doing orientation tomorrow, Friday, and missing two finals then. I decided I'd rather miss the finals on Wednesday and I made arrangements with those two teachers to take those finals a day early, on Tuesday.

Only, Mr. Buchanan, my physics teacher, I guess like talked to someone about this and like, found out that I'd need special permission from the principal to take my final early. So Tuesday morning he and I go down to the main office and we just end up talking with one of the secretary-ish ladies there for a really long time.

She told us that for now she'd just talk to the principal about it and get a verbal okay for me to go ahead and take the final that day. She said that if it was okay with Buchanan, then it'd probably be okay with the principal. But THEN she told me that I needed to bring them a note and a copy of the letter from Ursinus proving that I had to go to this orientation. o___O She kept going on about how I could just fax it when I got home and it was just like...

Me: Uh.....but I don't have a fax machine at home....
Her: *real snippy like* Well Staples has a fax machine!
Me: YEAH WELL GUESS WHERE YOU CAN STICK YOUR FAX MACHINE!?!? .....Can I just run it up here after school?

So... I thought that was that for the day, but apparently she also bugged my mom at work about it, I guess to make sure I wasn't lying about orientation? LOL I dunno, it was all a bunch of bullshit. But apparently my school called the main office at my mom's school and they paged her down, so when my mom called the extension at my school that they left for her to call, nobody picked up the phone. So she was super pissed at them from the get-go for interrupting her day and then not picking up. XD;

I just ended up doing all this running all through the school all day, dealing with that. Ugh. And then I was really pissed at lunch because they wouldn't let me make the three-minute trip to my locker to get my yearbook so Evan could sign it because it was a scheduled exam period for seniors. .___. Which was just like... the last straw I guess.

When I got home from school I called my mom at work to make sure that she knew about the whole thing and that somebody would need to run that letter up to the school. And... I was trying to be a big girl about it, but by that point I was just so frustrated and tired and I wasn't even that confident about the physics exam, and I just ended up blubbering on the phone. XD; It's shit like that makes me really excited to leave high school.

Yeah so, tomorrow's effectively my last day and I'm trying not to freak out, but I am anyway.

I try (and often fail miserably) to see the good/funny side of things, but I think I'm too sarcastic to really be an optimist. XD; I spaz out about things unncessarily all the time, but at least I recognize when I'm being retarded.

So I think that's why I'm so frustrated with myself for daydreaming about things happening in a way that I know they would never happen ever. XD; I think I'm just super-anxious about this summer. It's like, it's not supposed to be the same because I'm going to college this fall and it's like I just don't know what I'm supposed to be doing with myself this summer. So in a way I wish it wouldn't even come.
