Some frustrating things

Jun 07, 2010 13:18


I'm feeling less and less enthusiastic about my online graduate program. They have a "sister" school called Ashford University.  University of the Rockies is the graduate level and Ashford is the undergrad. Since February I've gone through three academic advisors. I had no idea until about an hour ago if I was registered for my next course. My first academic advisor would send me emails letting me know that I had been registered and that I needed to purchase my class books two weeks in advance of my next class. The class would then appear one week before it started on my student portal. It's a week before my next class. It's not showing up where I can see it. I can click elsewhere and I can see that I'm registered for the class.

However, my 2 most recent academic advisors have not sent me any information at all about this class. The second advisor only sent me an email saying she was my new academic advisor. Then when I logged into my student portal today I found out I have this third academic advisor who has not sent me any email to say she was my new academic advisor.

To make it worse, when I call the Univ of the Rockies number I get transferred to Ashford and they tell me to call the Univ of the Rockies. I tell them that I have and that I keep getting transferred to them. They all say, Wow that's weird and give me the Univ of the Rockies phone number again and tell me to call it again.To make it worse, when I call the Univ of the Rockies number I get transferred to Ashford and they tell me to call the Univ of the Rockies.

My stomach....we still have no word about what the heck is going on with my stomach. I put in another call to my GI doctor's nurse (as he instructed me to) and said, look, things are getting worse, I would really like to know what is going on. She called me back and was like, "what? what do you want?" as if I were the one doing something wrong. I just said, listen, Dr. Toskes told me to call you to find out what my test results were and what I need to do about my stomach problems. Then she was all, "Oh! Well, um, let me compile all your paperwork and have him look at it and then call you on Wednesday for an over-the-phone consultation." You think? I'm sorry, this weekend was really, really bad. I put something in my mouth and in approximately two hours it was like someone turned on a faucet in my gut and everything came out. God only knows what's really going on. I'm  trying to stay hydrated but I'm not doing a very good job. I'm just really, really frustrated with everything right now which probably doesn't help my stomach any. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.

So it's Monday. I'm exhausted and mildly grumpy and I don't want to do anything. I just want to sleep. Having a leaky faucet is exhausting. My body and my mind are tired.
