"Walking In My Shoes" by Depeche Mode

Tuesday: So I am dealing with major drama at school. I don’t even know if major is the right word… it all started last week when I found out that I needed to take 5 credits to graduate, when I was told that I didn’t. So I called the woman in registration from the office phone, since this all happened while I was at work. Turns out in this one section of the degree requirements I need one more class. Thing is I have taken 2 they are only accepting one she says. So fine I go to look for another class only to find I have actually have taken 3. So I called this Mrs. Pringles woman back and probably made her hate her phone by the end of the day. Or hate me, either way I called her a lot. So ask about the other courses and she gave me some bullshit answer saying my first degree is closed and I can’t take anything for that and how nothing will transfer. Okay so whatever, I look up all the other classes and they are at ungodly times. So there has to be a way to get around this. Pringleiscious isn’t helping me much so I need to talk to the head of psych to figure out wtf is up. Karla then met me right after and it old her all of this bullshit. They are actually doing something stupid with her as well where they before accepted her credit for science and now they aren’t. Great school huh? Pulling shit last minute to keep you there longer. I want to progress to another degree not be working on this fucking degree until my ball hair is down to my knees and whiter than virgin snow. I got the phone number and email for the head of psych and set out to email her on Sunday…

After having a great day of shopping with Jessica I went to email the psych head. She actually wrote me back later on Sunday night or Monday, and informed me she stepped down and got me in contact with the new guy that took over. I already know he won’t have a clue as to wtf is going on with me since I seem to be an entity of its own. In trying to see if I can do a course substitution since I have problems with the other courses I asked Brett about the course he is offering that coincides with the research project on women’s centers and he said it would probably not help me. So I asked about his other class he said that I need the prerequisite. I mentioned I took sex and culture he wasn’t sure if that helped so I was off to see Dr. Trinch to ask. She wasn’t in and I don’t know her hours, and the stupid secretary that took over for Gwen wasn’t there. She probably fell over with her gimp leg and was on her back rolling around like a turtle. So I went back to the office to tell Mayra only to find out that Dr. Murry walked in the office and stole my diet gingerale. I was ready to beat her down but just stormed out pissed and got a drink. Mayra told her what she did and she gave me money for taking my drink and apologized. She said as a peace offering she would offer me the other things in the fridge the other sodas, funny thing is one she offered me was already mine… I went back to see if Dr. Trinch was back, she wasn’t, nor was gimp the secretary. Mayra pointed out how I should go to the head’s office and ask him, so I did. Best thing I could have done really.

Ric offered to help me and has shown me that he really wants to help. He doesn’t find what I am going through fair and will do what he can. He told me today to write a letter and he sent it to someone in the registrars to see what they have to say. Hopefully with doing this first before talking to the new head of psych I can see what can be done. As I told Anna some of the stuff going on she said its great I can have a head of a department to advocate for me. If I can get two its even better, but I won’t count my chickens.

As for her class I worry, she is still suffering from health issues and doesn’t know what’s going on. I wonder if she might let up or be lenient with grades. I am hoping so.
