Bah, humbug.  They're charging me $10 to drop a class within the second week of school... how ridiculous.

I kind of understand it, because the system is so fucked and they need new and interesting ways to screw people over.

Still, I'm going to be more careful about dropping courses next time.

... I'm at Berkeley, though, which isn't Ivy League.  Only public schools can get away with this sort of thing.

Let's not get started on ways schools screw you over 'else I'll start ranting about how it costed us $60 to set financial aid to be sent to a bank account instead of using a school credit card.

I wasted my education also. It only now hits me, now that I've found that I can't get into my university of choice.

i can get a choice but it requires some effort, actually im guaranteed entrance to CU if i get 30 credits done, more easier than compared to entering from high school.

I wasted my high school education, but I'm doing really well at a community college so I'm hoping that will be what the universities look at instead of my high school grades.

What made me sad:

I've been playing some solo Dominions 3, boning up on tactics for Round Seven.  If it's EA, I'm planning on Twelve Jaguar coming back for vengeance.  That's not what made me sad.  What made me sad is apparently I still haven't gotten the hang of properly outfitting supercombatants.

I didn't have boots of flying, so I figured boots of the crane would work instead.  I assumed teleport was the same as flying.

It wasn't.

Sorry Bune, you'll get that Abysian PD next summon.

I'm sad because I never get any reason to post in this thread anymore.

I'm finished.  I just completed by far the worst essay I have ever done.  Part of me hopes I fail, because nothing this hideous should ever be graded well.

You have no idea how far you'll go with this level of effort.  I got a fucking 3.2 major average and a Pi Sigma Alpha commendation for that kind of last-minute bullshittery.

And now I'm sad that I'm reminded again of just how little I deserve my degree (which I still haven't gotten the paper copy of), how little I learned, and how useless my degree is.
