Having managed to bork my whole winter schedule because I thought I needed calculus for a biology degree, I re-read the requirements. It doesn't say statistics AND calculus. It says statistics OR calculus. :|

Two things:

1.  Calculus makes everything better.  And by "better", I mean, "your entire life goes away for a term".

2.  This is divine retribution for A)  Not paying attention, and B)  Taking the bees thing out of your sig.  That was the only thing keeping the sideways people away.  YOU FOOL!

It would go away for THREE terms, because that's how many calculus classes are in the series.

For the sake of simplicity, I said fuck it, and re-registered for the stats class. Now I'm taking stats, writing, psychology, stress & human health, and a one-credit seminar class on test anxiety.

Plus I found out that NONE of the biology classes I need are available at PCC, which means that I have exactly nine classes left there before starting at PSU. Three chemistry classes, three writing classes, stats II, public speaking, and physics. I can take classes at PSU anytime, of course, but I don't really want to commute back and forth between campuses. I might start taking psychology classes there Spring term if I can work out my schedule so that I don't have any other classes those days.

I will put the bees back in my sig, oh yes, I will. When the time comes.

I don't think they have polar bears in Hungary, but just in case, I'll load up on this parasitic fungus.

Well, off to another never-ending meeting in which I will try to explain basic maintenance issues to dumbfucks who can't and/or won't understand. 

I hate you all like you were Pol Pot's "plate" boy.

I have been informed that the Christmas party will be on the 15th.
And the theme this year is white trash.

On one hand this is good for me because I won't have to agonize over finding a shirt without noticeable holes. On the other hand I can see me cringing at what everyone is gonna come up with (last year's theme was bad sweaters, people put much effort into it *shudders*).

Plus I've given my husband my word that I wouldn't be sitting on the sofa the whole night. Fun.
:ninja:
Laugh, even if you are screaming inside. Smile, because the world doesn't care if you feel like crying.

What a theme.

TIRED. I can feel the anger coming on.

I have to give my boss a form filled out by my classmate who is about to become a coworker.

This is good, because I like her, and bad, because I was not planning on going into the office today. Dammit.

I am also thinking that I might solve my psych/biology dilemma by double majoring. They discourage it but I think I can do a combined capstone project in neuroscience and if I declare my major as microbiology but rack up enough psych credits what are they going to do, tell me no?

Off to the hospital. This might be my last visit, wish me luck!

This weekend is OPERATION ONSLAUGHT.   75,000 points with an assault rifle, which means assholes playing Ghosts with Harriers are going to be everywhere.

Well fuck you guys.  I'm playing a Salarian Infiltrator with a Saber, and I'll likely outscore every one of you jerks.
