sorrow: My class workload/work/fraternity commitments are way too much for me to handle right now. I think I'm getting close to a mini-nervous breakdown/freakout. Just not enough hours in the day to get everything done.
Sorrow:I hav erpetty much no social life outside of the weekends right now. I very rarely have time to do anything but class/work/homework
Joy:As far as I can tell I'm doing well in my classes so far so at least I'm not running myself ragged for nothing.

I'm sick of divorces. I know too many people who have been affected by or been divorced.

I hope everything at least works out for the better in the end for you Sleet. I hate hearing news like that.

You have my sympathies. My parents divorced when I was three, so I grew up thinking that the arrangement was normal. I can only imagine what you must be going through, having gone through it twice, and of an age you were truly cognizant of what was happening.

And you deserve some one who is more emotionally supportive. If your significant other does not change their tune perhaps you should move on.

There is nothing worse than being on your own in a trying time.

Well, its happened. I had a confrontation with my racist co-worker and it landed us both in the supervisors office. I pleaded my case and reiterated all of the activities that that made him hard to work with, but as is typically of this place nothing is going to get done about it. It just made us both look bad, and he has no problem looking bad. Actually, he tried to take the moral high road in an attempt to make me look even worse.

I talked to the supervisor after ward and he said that he could move me to another section if I wanted. I jumped at the chance. He said he was going to see if he anything was available, but I have already applied for work elsewhere in other departments. I am not going to quit. He is not going to drive me off. I am going to stay where I am, having an extra wall between us is going to make it more bearable.

Thanks for the kind words. I am now going to be on the opposite end of the room from him. Let him offend other people and see how long he lasts.

I am glad that things worked out with your paper. If you ever need help with your assignments, just ask us here. I am more than willing to help and I am sure that others might have the expertise that you need.

Aggravation: I am so sick of the Buy a Mac vs. Buy a PC argument. Just buy a computer that you like and leave your opinions on someone else's choice to yourself. I mean, good Lord. I'd hate to see y'all argue about something that was actually important.

There is no "PC wins because of this", and there is no "Mac wins because of this."

Joy: At least some arguments can be settled.

Joy: apparently I'm making a good impression at work. I can't fathom why, I don't work particularly hard and I'm not that good at my job. I guess I'll just chalk it up to my devilishly good looks and charming disposition :P . But for whatever reason my various supervisors seem to like me.

Joy: Holy carp Waka Flocka and Tyler the Creator finally did a track together. The amount of fanboy realted joy I feel right now is just...wow!

No, both the head board and foot boards of the beds have these spoke type things on the tops and indentions that fit the spokes on the bottom, so they can stack up on each other. Tyler and I didn't have to get Resident's Life to do that though, we made the room ourselves :D

LuLz that's actually really funny. I don't like USC for the school, only for football and baseball.

Also, there are only 16 college in USA that are nationally accredited in all of its majors, and Winthrop is one of them, so FACE!!!!
