I thought it would be cool cause i've got my own apartment now. Nope I work almost full time archiving photos for my university. I have 3 bosses and each one thinks stuff should be done a certain way. So, things change all the time. I spent the last 4-5 weeks going through pics and sorting them into folders and stuff and one of my bosses tells me last week i didn't need to do it because they already have the stuff done. He tells me to go tag (keyword) the photos on some hard drive. Well, i finished that in about 2 hours and now have nothing to do because the school needs to get a new server before i can start actually putting these things online. The new server isn't expected till the end of the summer... So i just have to make sure i look busy all the time when my boss comes past my door. The rest of the time i'm mainly on here (like now). If anyone wants to talk about anything online my screenname is omgitschrisftw. IM me, i'm bored out of my skull and still have 3.5 hours left of work I also am taking 2 summer classes, 1 online and 1 on mon and wed nights. Both suck and have a ton of work to do which i don't feel like doing. Add this to the fact that i have to submit stuff online through blackboard (which sucks) and i'm already sick of summer. Nobody is around cause they all went home and i'm at my apartment on my own most nights cause my roomate works late and my girlfriend went home to Long Island. I really miss her too which sucks a lot and she's working full time $4/hour more than me and really enjoying her job. So i only get to see her at weekends. Right now though she's in Belize helping kids or something so i can't even talk to her right now. I know it sounds so emo but i'm really lonely without her. I like being around her and doing things with her. And i'm flat broke with a ton of cc debt which i'm hoping to start to pay off with the money i earn from doing nothing while working full time. I wish school would start again and i actually have stuff to do with my time. I am planning to start going to the gym which will take up some time but thats about it
Nice attitude. How about actually doing your homework? Or suggesting a solution to your profs instead of sitting there lamenting about what you can't do? Or how about looking for more work online during your busy workday? If you are so bored, why not take more classes? Although I would focus on paying off the cc bills--didn't your parents teach you not to rack up cc debt?
1) I couldn't take any more summer classes. I tried. I wanted to take 3 in Summer 1 and 2 in Summer 2 but the limit is 2 a semester for summer I'm double majoring in finance and management so i have a bunch of classes to make up 2) I do do the homework but its confusing (you obviously haven't used blackboard). I was more pissed about the fact i don't know what homework to do because its so complicated to work out on blackboard. I've yet to meet someone who likes blackboard 3) The CC debt is all my fault. I've been dumb. It just sucks i'm working to pay it off though. I have nobody to blame but myself My attitude would probaby better if i wasn't freezing in here (its 65 in my office, 82ish outside) and i had some kind of natural light. Both rooms next to mine have windows, mine doesn't I just felt like venting
I thought I was going to find another person like myself that actually hates the SEASON of summer. Sorry to hear about your situation...though doesnt sound all that terrible. Life is what you make of it. Put your extra time to work for you. Anyway...since you started this thread Im going to make my 'summer sucks' post. I hate the heat...I hate how bright it is...I hate all the kids out of school... I dont understand how anyone can function in 90 degree + weather... I find it hard to breathe. Give me back 65 degrees and dreary overcast days.
For anyone that hates summer, they need to spend a few winters in Wisconsin or South Dakota... Give me 100 over 0 anytime.
I don't hate summer so much. I love the beach and pool and stuff i just hate not having anything do do those things with etc etc
Blackboard really does suck. I freaking hate that thing, but it does allow me to watch my lectures online. only positive. Summer for me is going to be a mess. I'll be working monday through friday trying to help my parents and find some way to afford a car. All my friends basically stayed in their cities where they're attending college. I hate this Texas heat, miss Cali and the girl I left behind.
TRU DAT ! Paradise for me would be a constant 65-70 degrees and overcast every day of the year. I lived in NYC for a while...I remember below zero. Sucked but still better than 100 degrees for me.
yuck... I wonder if a place does exist where it rarely gets cooler than 50 and rarely warmer than 85 with minimal rainfall....
Geez, i thought i was the only one that hated that piece of crap system. have you guys had to use Webassign yet? where they actually make you PAY to do your homework.....
Ow yes. Ran into that a while back with a calculus class. Having to pay aside, it was a pain in the neck to use.
Man if you think you have it bad now, wait until you graduate and have a full-time job. And then a family. And kids. And a mortgage, bills, retirement, saving for your kids college, etc etc. Enjoy it while you freakin can!!
And you get to pay the government nearly half (depending on your income) of your paycheck just for being a citizen.
we had to use cengage for a stats class this past semester, i'm not sure what the price for it is, but the course i was taken was used as a guinea pig course to see if they'll use it in the future, so we got a free trial for the semester, but otherwise, that's a load of crap, i'm paying enough for an education to the point where i've got 0 interest in paying more, not that i couldn't afford it, but i think i'd put up a stand on that.
