Update for all who are weary...
Random things blog time! I don't like the templates blogger gives you... u_u;; all are so crapp, and I'm too lazy to switch to something else. I have a xanga (ONLY B/C I wanted to post notes on people's xangas >_<) but I do not want to be sucked into the Azn Xanga trend... Maybe one of these days after finals >_<;; I'll switch to something else...
So... I got to pick my classes earlier for next quarter cuz I'm actually a soph now XD!!! Wooo, I got all my classes, but I'm not all that pleased with the times... I start early in the morning and end at 230, which is overall ok, but I don't like waking up at 640am again >_< It was either the morning class or the 630 lecture.. =/ So I guess I'd rather go with the 830am... I'm gonna be swamped with 2 sciences next quarter. aye! I'll post my exact schedule some other day.
So I saw/heard some weird things today... On the bus ride to school, this guy was sitting in front of me and he had long hair (for a guy; so like down to the top of the neck region, covering his ears...) and he would just play with it, twisting it, twirling it around his fingers and this bothered me greatly... MEN DON"T PLAY WITH THEIR HAIR >_<; Even if men's hair was to be played with, it would be by a female, or at least another significant other (being the case with recent news). *sigh* It's ok don't sweat the small stuff... Moving on the strange encounter #2 for today... I was walking toward Bagley, just sauntering underneath the bright and ephemeral sun light when suddenly someone walking past me farted loudly....... No no, he didn't hold back. This could have been heard across the fountain. In fact I think IT WAS HEARD ACROSS THE FOUNTAIN. And I didn't want to make a scene more than it was so I just looked down and quickly walked forward. Good thing he was walking in the other direction. Man, it's a free world, but keep the loud, gaseous noises for the bathroom where it belongs... I feel embarrassed for him. u_u;;
Life has been pretty lame lately. Sociology is a pain in the ass and I'm glad I took it pass/fail. The class on a whole is just complete crap. ::note: Intense ranting and some cussing will occur so please skip if you don't want to read it:: I've got a few things to rant abotu the class, and being as how I have to type everything in HTML for blogger, I can't make it into a list so I'll just type it paragraph style... First of all, as a writing class, the class is solely based on 4 short answer/essay tests. Not my kind of tests... Second, the teacher writes the tests, and the TA's grade them. One TA will grade one question for every single test. Now I feel there's a certain bias here. Some TA's will teach in different styles, telling their students different things, thus resulting in some students getting answers that one TA would prefer over another. Third, this should actually be before the last one, the tests allow so bloody little space for their answers one would have to change their handwriting to like size 9 font just to fit a proper answer. The questions are something along the lines of "Define each theory and suggest which one you think is better with 3 strengths and weaknesses of each theory" in like 20 lines.... @_@;; I dunno about you, but I think I forgot my size 9 typewriter at home. Fourth, did I mention how much my TA sucks? He comes to quiz section each time, pretty much without any lesson plan, and then sits there waiting for questions. AND THEN if he doesn't hear any, he'll move on to try to talk about some material that he thinks is relevant. Only in the end, for us to realize that what he told us wasn't really useful at all, since he spent like 5 minutes telling it to us. Fifth, so I bring my test back to my TA telling him I contest the grade I was given and that I don't even know what the hell I was marked off for because I recieved a hella low grade and like 2 marks on the entire friggin essay. WHY THE HELL DID I WASTE MY TIME WRITING AN ESSAY IF I"M ONLY GOING TO GET LIKE 5 BLOODY POINTS AND YOU TELL ME I FORGOT TO WRITE A CONCLUSION SENTENCE??? OH, I DIDN"T KNOW I NEEDED A CONCLUSION SENTENCE FOR A 20 BLOODY LINE ESSAY... Gosh, the entire class's structure is just terrible. Sixth, I got my second test back sooo late. When I was sitting in front of my comptuer at the deadline for pass/fail deciding whether or not to go with it, I pretty much only had my first test grade to go on... I didn't even know the mean for that test. And lets recall... that date was like 5 bloody weeks into the friggin quarter!!! What kind of shit is this I'm dealing with?! Seventh, O yes, for a writing class, we sure do a lot of writing for 4, 3 page long tests and two BS filled (1 sided page dble spaced) papers. Eighth, can anyone say what we're learning is common sense? People in poor quality schools perform at a lower academic level than those at higher quality institutions... u_u;; 'nuf said. Ninth, "uhh teach... how bout updating that text.... It's great reading one piece of writing by WEB Du Bois, but everything else is written as if it were the 1980's... Tenth, "yo teach, when are the lecture outlines for your last week's lectures going to be up on the web?" "Uh, I just sent them to my TA so they should be up by tonight" Next lecture "Yo ms. _____, when are your outlines for the *blah* lecture going to be up?" "They're goign to be emailed to my TA's right after class so expect them tonight" Just great.... I'm even tired of this, sorry to anyone who's a sociology fan out there, but this class was just a complete failure. oh, I guess I should add this. Eleventh, we don't know our grade at all. Not even the slightest clue, no mean, no comparisons, don't even know what the mean is going to be set at. Anyway, good luck to anyone even thinking about taking this class....
Final words... AAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Finals are this saturday and next week >_< Damn I'm screwed... Naruto IS AN AMAZING ANIME THOUGH!!! =D
