I will be ecstatic when this semester is over. It's not hard, it's actually ridiculously easy, but I just can't get into it. I made my 8 am class over the summer, every single time. Maybe because I liked it? I'm not sure. I LIKE English. It's my major. Shouldn't I enjoy the class? It's not even at 8 am, it's at 9. Ugh. Next semester won't be great by any means, but my earliest class is at 11, and I only have class Tuesdays and Thursdays. Granted, I'll be on campus ALL DAY, because I have Bio on Tues. 6:30 to 9:30, and the lab on Thurs. 6:30 to 9:30. That's not going to be fun, but... I'm a night owl. I can handle it.
I still need to figure out where the hell I'm going to transfer to. I need to pick someplace good, but not insanely expensive. With financial aid continually fucking me over... I can't afford to pay the balance if they don't give me enough money. Even now, at JeffCo, I ask for $2500 a semester, and they end up giving me $1250, and I have to pay six or seven hundred dollars out of pocket each semester. It's stupid, and I don't know how to fix it. I've gone and talked to the bitch in the financial aid office, and she is NO help. I just WANT MORE MONEY. If I had the money to pay for school, do you think I would be taking out student loans? Does anyone know how to fix this? It's driving me insane, not to mention maxing out my credit cards.
In other, unrelated, news... Black Friday is coming. It's almost here, and I'm NOT excited. I don't have to open, which is good... I would have had to be there at 4 a.m. and we all know I don't do "getting up while it's dark" very well. I'm scheduled 2 pm to midnight. Brit is going to sleep at my house, and we're going to take one car, because parking is going to be a bitch. I remember it was last year... It normally takes me 10 minutes to get to work, but last Black Friday, it took me 45. Dave is closing... which will suck... but so is Erin... which will be awesome. I'm hoping that it will be incredibly busy, and there will so many employees, that Dave won't ever have to talk to me. And I'm hoping that Erin decides we need to bond more, and will keep me from actually doing anything. The store is going to be WRECKED. For the rest of the year, at least. I can just see the people running in at 5 am on Black Friday, knocking over the Christmas trees in Main Street, and ripping the Cashmere off the wall. Not pretty.
Oh, and how dumb is my break? We have Thursday and Friday off from school, and we have Wednesday after 12:00. My 9 am class decides not to have class. Yay! But, my 10 am class decides he's going to do a Microsoft Access lecture the day before Thanksgiving. I have to drive out there, for the dumbest class of the semester, for 50 minutes. I'm not very happy =/
