Stony Brook Rant
Once again I am reminded of how I hate this campus.
Before I can graduate, I need 1 credit of BIO. Since it was only one credit, I have been trying for the past 3 semesters to get an independent study with someone. Now really, should it be that hard?? Apparently yes.
My program director told me I would have to go find a teacher on West Campus to sponsor me, work out a project with them, and then could get my credit. So for a year, I sent e-mails, meet a few professors, and asked various friends if they knew someone who would work with me. I got a lot of, sorry your field/knowledge is not in our field, or just no answers. So this possibly being my last year, and with a friend that's a TA, I was finally able to get some information and a starting point. But that did only start Wednesday.
Thursday, my director pulls me aside in class, reminding me that I have a credit to finish up. I told her I am working on it and should have an answer soon. She couldn't understand why I was having such a hard time since another student already worked a project through with one of my teachers. That paused me, for I was originally told I couldn't use one of my teachers. She also tells me that tomorrow is the deadline to sign up without a fee. This is also disheartening for, to my knowledge, I has another week. So I grumble through the day a bit since it was maddening, to say the least. I get a lot of help from out good TA friend, start to fill out the paper work, pick a random topic to write about, and go to the BIO department to hand in the paper work. Course it's after 4 so I walked there for no reason. I look at my schedule and see the only time Friday I really have to turn it in will be 12-1 when i have a break.
So Friday, I go see my one professor to co-sponsor the project, as I was told to do and he is confused. he is the one that gave my classmate a project and has never seen it done this way be for. Makes me a bit nervous, but he fills it out and I go to my next class. I nervously sit through it till 12 then bolt out the door to run across campus. I go see the professor who's been helping me, but to his knowledge, he shouldn't be sponsoring, although he will if need be. SO i go see Ellen Lopez, who signs you up for the classes. She is confused by the paperwork tells me I have been doing it wrong, gives me new papers to have filled out, and says return by 2, or it will be to late. So I rush back to the hospital, get the teacher from earlier to re fill them out and have him think of a project. He's leaving soon to, so feels to rushed.....can't think of anything....He need to re-write it a few times......Finally picks the topic "Describe the characteristics of the human pappiloma virus, how it causes cervical cancer, and how effective is the vaccine, and how it works." I rush back across, give her the papers, and have just enough time to run back to the hospital to make it to class. Oh i did have the minute to heat up my oatmeal for lunch though. Class then last 10 minutes, despite us being told it would be important that day, which is why I had to be back at 1, and I slowly walk back to the 4M.
Now today, I had to pay my tuition. I looked at it earlier this week and it was 5 bucks. Suddenly it's 45. I review the activity and see a 40 dollar late registration fee. i though, stupid woman didn't turn in the form until after the time. I search through Stony Brook's stupid website and see that it was actually the last day period to sign up for classes.
Once, I would like this damn school to just give me the correct information when I ask for it. Just once.

My Morning
Well it started with a dream. In it, the was James Earl Jones. He was this evil landlord of these building complexes where Shia LaBeouf was living. I don't recall it all but remember the ending where Shia decides to blow up the buildings with C4. Then the smoke detector went off. No really in my house it did. In the first beep, I awoke, grabbed my glasses and noticed it was 3:30. Next beep I have moved myself from my bed. Third beep, I got up and am standing in my room. And that was it. It stopped beeping. Now I stand for a minute trying to think what the hell just happened. Finally after a few minutes I realize yes it did go off. No there isn't smoke in my room. And there isn't any light like a fire was happening. So I slowly open my door, still no smoke. Look around the hallway, still none. Look down the stairs, still none. Then I realize that my brother's door and my dad's door were still closed. I stood in the hallway thinking a second and begin to wonder if I was dreaming it all. So I go downstairs to make sure there still isn't any smoke. My mom fell asleep on the couch but heard me walk down the stairs and asked what was wrong. I asked if she heard the smoke detector. SHe says, "Oh that's what that noise was, it didn't sound like it but I wasn't sure." With that I walked back upstairs to my room. Glare at the smoke detector outside of my door and go back in. There I was attacked by something on the other side, strike at it a few times before seeing it was my bathing suit (quiet it was late and I was tired) then head back to bed. I lay down a for a minute or two and then....
BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP
I jump awake again, but just sit up in my bed. I wait. Then sit up and go look. I open my door, glare at it for a few moments
BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP
Then I hear my brother open his door. "Now it's pissing me off." Meanwhile my mom slowly walks up the stairs and is also wondering whats happening.
BEEPBEEPBEEP
She then looks over at my dad's door. It still closed. He slept through it all and still now doesn't know what happened. To shorten this up it beeped once more during the night. I slept downstairs on the couch where it couldn't be heard as much. But ya know what. It sucked.
Current Mood: still a little tired
