It's time for another exciting edition of...

School Whining!

(It's been so long. I know you've missed it.)

In today's exciting episode, Icarus wrestles a deadly gorgon (also known as student aid), has her research hopes dashed by a dashing yet overburdened professor ("Fie! Thou be-est not a Ph.D. candidate! Get thee gone, for my time is booked for fortnights into the forseeable future!"), and is trapped between the Prerequisite Only Offered In The Summer while lured by the Siren Call of $18-Per-Hour Temp Work.

Will she survive? Will she throw herself out a window in frustration?

Stay tuned.

It's no contest. I'm sure those high-end temp jobs are gone by now and SISA 209 is a prereq that this year is only being offered in the summer.

This is going to be an intense quarter. I've 14 weeks of classwork stuffed into 8 weeks, 4 hours of classroom time alone, five days a week.

It'll prepare me for grad-school intensity. *crosses fingers that I can do well with this*

oh you keep me laughing... Sorry for you woes. I can truly sympathise, as only a fellow student can. Good luck, and keep us posted.

*grin* and augh!

I'll try to avoid that window, but I tell you, it's tempting.

Oh look! The student aid has grown several more heads, all asking for financial documents yesterday. *draws my vorpal blade*

I actually had a watilist for on-cmpus housing for my college of choice. Three weeks of headaches and nightmares of being stuck with my mother for another 4 months. I call tomorrow to see how things are progressing. If it's negative, I'm in for a year of community college... at home. ::grimaces::
