Wednesdays are the devil
I had a 3-page paper due today for my Romantic Comedy class. I wrote about how Sleepless in Seattle pushed the limits for romantic comedies by following a plot of two main characters that have never met face to face, yet are destined to fall in love. Ugh. And today in class we watched Groundhog Day. It was more entertaining than I had remembered--nonetheless, still quite annoying.
I got very little sleep last night, so after class all I wanted to do was come back to my dorm room and take a quick nap before my 3pm meeting with my Written Communications in Business professor. I tried my hardest to get into my dorm but was thwarted at every attempt. Why, you ask. Well, that would be because some smart RA had my PDI deactivated. Gee, thanks. I reaaaaally appreciated that. So I had to call Beth (waking her up from her nap) to get her to let me in and then I stomped to the dorm office and glared at the inhabitants. Yes, I was grumpy. I wanted a nap damnit. The RA in the office gave me a new PDI and proceeded to tell me that I needed to mail my old one off or I would get charged a fee.........This angered me. I am of the opinion that I should NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR UD'S FUCK-UPS. And this was such a stupid problem too. I really think the RA shouldn't have said that to me, but instead should have just taken my old PDI and mailed it herself.......which she actually did because I stood there and asked for an envelop and the address to send it to (which she wrote directly on the envelop). And then, since she had already done that much, she wrote a note about the problem, stuck it in the envelop, and walked 4 feet to the campus mail box. How hard was that? After I had overseen this, I trudged upstairs and fell asleep.
I had to wake up from my nap early to add some stuff to my business report (the topic of my meeting with my professor). Currently, my report is about 7 pages of "meat" and 4 pages of formality. Don't ask. The topic of the report is a business problem: using efficient personnel data software. It's a problem that I ran into at the last company I worked for--meaning their personnel data was often incorrect and not updated. My meeting with my professor went pretty well. He gave me some good ideas to add to my report.
All of this leads to the obvious conclusion that school sucks.
