Full of the Dickens
So, I've been meaning to update since I got back from break, but I've been busy. Swank's apartment burnt down, so that kinda sucked for everyone. We had gotten into a fight the night before it burnt down because I wanted to stay there that weekend, but he wanted to go home to get sandbags for his truck, so he ended up winning (as always), and we went home. But, good thing he did win this time! :) Except that he didn't get sandbags, so I still don't know why we went home! So, he's living in Cuba now with his uncle, so that kinda sucks cuz it's farther away and I can't spend any sexy weekends with him, but at least he's having a good time there.
I've also managed to bring up my grades in a few of my classes the past few weeks, so that's good news. But it will really all depend on the finals. In 312, he offered a makeup exam that we can replace our lowest exam grade with, so I did it, and the tax table matched up with the net income, so I think I got it right, so that should replace my C, unless I get a worse grade on the final!
In 304, there's not a lot more to say except, "I fucking hate my fucking group!" I had tried to get the group to work together to finish it before break so we didn't have to worry about it, but my group was too stupid to reply to my emails. So then, they decided to meet in Chicago, so I couldn't meet with them so they just assigned me a part, which I did. Then, I saw the participation grade one of my group members gave me, which was really low, and I don't know why since I edited the whole paper, did my part, tried to organize the group for meetings, etc. So, I think that's really rather shitty. That class has completely screwed me over with group work. I hate group work so much.
I ran for VP of Programming in BAP, but lost, as usual, cuz no one ever likes me. Well, this time it was more an issue of the son of one of the partners of PwC was running against me, so I didn't stand a chance. I don't know why everyone thinks that voting for him will help them out later, who's to say he'll even know or that he even likes them well enough to get them a job. But people are stupid, and I guess that's how half the people in office have gotten there...then, he didn't even show up for initiation tonight. Unfortunately, that's not enough to kick him off the board. I just think it's really crappy, cuz I really wanted to do it and I would be damn awesome, but noone ever wants to give me a chance at anything. I hate college, and I hate the business world-college life that I'm surrounded by.
Me and Swank went looking for rings over break, I found one that I really, really like, so hopefully I'll be wearing that one soon!
So, I've been wedding-planning-dreaming lately! It's been fun, can't wait till I can do this for real and not have to feel stupid about it since I'm not engaged yet!!
