Family-Related Bitching
Stephanie and Mom had a huge blow out yesterday, over various things. One; Steph doesn't help around the house. Two, she's now calling Devon (the guy she cheated on Mark with two years ago) her boyfriend. He hooked back up with her a week before he left to South Korea for two years (army). Mom hates Devon. So, Steph ran out and rented a two-bedroom apartment she could've easily afforded, and told me I could crash in the second bedroom anytime I wanted. Then, Dad talked her out of it. Stupid tease. I wanted that bedroom, dammit!
School-Related Moaning
I am failing Greek 202. The prof is working with me every Friday to help me. Why am I failing Greek, you might ask? Because I failed the midterm. I translated all five assigned passages, and bombed #2 and #3. I thought, "Fuck it, leave 'em blank, get outta here." Instead, I tried to finish them, thinking I'd scrape a few points. Then I get it back and he says "You were supposed to pick three of the five passages, and because you did all five I just went with the first three." And #1, #4, and #5 were fine. I would've gotten an 82%. The lesson? When your brain says "Bail, stupid!" just go with it.
Tomorrow, I have a twenty minute presentation on Carl Jung, to do in front of the Chair of the Classics Department. And I didn't find the book I was supposed to present from. And I haven't started reading the other book he gave me. And I have no intention of starting.
Car-Related Issues
First, I got my first-ever civil infraction. I "yielded" at a stop sign. In a deserted parking lot. On campus. Ninety dollars.
Then, I got into my first accident. Two cars crashed into each other and I crashed into them, so I like to think it wasn't my fault.
I'd bitch more, but I don't wanna.
