This Door's for Locking

[laura_leviathan]

We're going to go buy our books today because classes begin on Monday.  This summer was way to hectic for me to be ready for classes again. Luckily or unluckily, my frighteningly full and intense schedule was shortened yesterday due my being unqualified to take a class.  This is good and bad.  Good because I know this semester is going to be stressful with or without that class, and I really didn't want to take a political science class anyway.  Bad because I'm graduating in 3 semesters, and I need an upper level social sciences course.  The class I had to drop filled that requirement, but now I'll have to look elsewhere some other semester.  No class remotely useful to anyone is still open this close to semester beginning.

Anyway, back to this summer being hectic.  In the bast 2 months I have all of these amazing things trust upon me:

• a stressful move to a better apartment
• a bee sting turned horribly painful and gross looking strep infection in my foot
• an exploding toilet that flooded my bathroom
• a banking incompetence that resulting in someone passing checks through my account that were not my checks, resulting in a fight to have hundreds of dollars returned to me (won it)
• a diagnosis of glaucoma
  

There have been some positives.  I bought some new awesome glasses, and I successfully achieved Missouri residency.  This means I will be getting around $6000 back from financial aid and grant money.

Who knows? Maybe this semester will be great.  I just would like a few more weeks of sleeping in and swimming.  That is, if it ever gets warm enough to swim again.
