So tired of this...

There aren't even words for how frustrated I am with the UofC right now. The chances of me actually getting into any of the art classes I want this quarter are about zero, mostly because of the number of fourth years pulling the "it's my last quarter!" card. Freaking register for the class, prereg hasn't been screwing you over for an entire year on it. Grr! So, I've got two more I can try to sit in on... and hope that maybe I'll get lucky. Luck would be something nice to have here again, but I think I ran out of it a while ago, if I ever had any at all. On top of this, Add/Drop isn't working. And when it is, it is obscenely slow and keeps timing out. Thanks. Let's make it harder for me to be a full-time student this quarter. Let's make it harder for me to graduate on time. If I don't have at least three classes by the end of this week, I think I'm just going to have to go home this quarter. I can't afford to stay and only take two classes, and so many of the classes I need are full. Heck, I can't even afford to only be taking three classes. Gah, how come whenever I'm registered and the class is full, the professor is the nice sort that signs pink slips until the end of second week and doesn't care if you e-mailed them first or not? I think I just have terrible luck here, and that's that. My Cult-Evo grade still isn't in, either. Maybe somehow all three of them lost my paper, and I won't have to worry about it anymore. Sigh. I'm so tired of this mess.

Hello there, everyone...

I have one word for everyone: Lollapalooza. It's in Chicago this summer... in August. And holy crap are there a lot of good bands in that lineup. I am now determined to go and I absolutely haven't already made plans to camp out on someone's apartment floor without even asking, no. The invitation is open... anyone who has a desire to go is more than welcome to keep me company. My sister called me today while I was on the bus to the dining hall and tempted the heck out of me by reading off the names of all the bands, but she's bringing all her friends from home, half of which are people I graduated with and never really knew well, but are the sort that will make me rather uncomfortable the entire weekend. Which would sort of destroy the fun of the concert. So I need a comrade-at-arms. One that promises to be non-awkward in the usual UofC way, because I can't even get my mind around dragging a UofC-awkward person around something like Lollapalooza. Heck, I'm not sure I can do it myself. So really... anyone who wants to go. But dude... I must go to this. Must!

Oh, and chocolatemoose? The two states I forgot were Virginia and West Virginia. I knew I was missing a pair, but it didn't occur to me until I was almost out of Canada, and I didn't remember that it'd occurred to me until this afternoon. (See, I didn't pester you directly about coming to Lollapalooza with me.)

(Also, I managed to randomly snag a seat in the Intro to Film class tomorrow, so all I have to do now is beg my way into a fourth class and I'm set. Yay!)
