Today has been absolutely unbelievable with what has happened. I should've had my third final today, which would've been the poetry discussions in my English 300W class--but here's the thing....my professor didn't show up. We sat in class for about sixteen minutes before we all filed out of the class then into the hallway. About half of the class went down the elevators and to wherever they had to go next and the other half stayed to go and talk to the department head to try to figure out what happened. It took a few minutes to actually sort things out, but when we did, it was a bit surprising. Apparently the professor was in the hospital, and she didn't get to call in to tell anyone about it. Hell, its the damn final we're talking about, at least get someone to call in and tell anyone within the English Department's Office that you're not going to be able to make the class. If you do that, at least we wouldn't have had to do this in the first place! Ugh, I'm a bit steamed when it comes to what happened then.
Well, there's one good thing that came out of the mess that this morning brought. At least I don't have to sit through what most likely would've been a long, drawn out and boring experience. The only final I have to worry about now is my Studies In African American Literature final tomorrow, and that's not going to be that bad. At least that's going to be an all writing one. I don't have to worry about guessing answers to questions or having one of those fill in the blank tests either. This is simply going to be a write a paragraph or two for four questions sort of thing. There's going to be one question that will be longer than the rest, but its still not going to take me that long to finish it. When I'm done with that, I have to get back to my dorm and clean, getting ready to pack up what's left in the car so I can actually go home for the summer.
Strangely enough, I'm not sad to say that I will most likely be transferring in the fall. For one, I think that the single English class that I had this semester really has me switching to nursing permanently because I do not want to have another class that was this bad. Things were all over the place, deadlines meant nothing in the class, and there was so much interference when it came to communication between the professor and the rest of the class that It just turned me away from the major in general. If this is supposed to be the intro class to the rest of the major I have currently, would the rest of the classes be just as bad as this one? I don't think that I have ever had a teacher that was this disorganized. Some teachers can work that way, but it is obvious that this professor can't. Because of this, I'm really damn glad that I'm going to transfer, just because I can get away from some of the freaks like that.
Che, enough about that. I could go on and on about what I hate about that particular class and about different things that have happened during the semester in general but that's not what I'm going to do. I have no homework tonight since I read everything that I had to for tomorrow during the weekend, so I'm set to actually be able to relax today. I think I might just let myself crash for a bit and catch a few more hours of sleep, just because I feel that I'm coming down from a caffeine high. I've had a lot of caffeine today already and its only one thirty. Heh, If I continued, I probably would be close enough to feeling like I was bouncing off the walls. That's how I sounded like yesterday--I think I was the mocha cappuccino from Starbucks that sent me over the edge then. I wasn't that bad though, I tended to randomly say things but I wasn't literally bouncing off of the walls.
I've had bits and pieces of time that I've been able to work on my fanfics, so I've finally started chapter six of AQH. It will be a while before I can actually get that out, but I feel better that I've started on it. I'm working on the DGM Cross/Allen one shot that I started and the FMA Ed/Envy one shot I started as well, but I think that the latter is going to at least turn out to be a three chapter story. If I don't make it into three chapters, its more than likely going to be a long one shot. It probably will depend on how my mood is at the time, especially if feel like being evil or not. Normally when I do feel like being evil I'm in a weird mood to begin with, and I think that will be the case when I do finish both.
Ugh, I've had it with Windows. Its pissing me off to the highest degree lately. There's been so many things that have gone wrong with it, and i"m not saying that its my laptop that's aggravating the hell out of me but still. I'm pissed off at the fact that my laptop battery dies so quickly, the fact that I should've gone with a smaller screen size, and there's also the fact that because I have windows seven, there are several programs that don't want to work now. I'm sick and tired of having to deal with the extra work that comes with having a pc, and when I do figure out what I'm getting from Oakland, I'm going to try and see if I can go and get an apple laptop with some of the money. If I can, the laptop I'm using now Is going to go to my mom. She'll be able to use it, and I'll be happy as a clam with my mac.
For now, I'm just going to sleep off some of this irritation and bitchiness in general.
