two more weeks of class

so the holidays are fast approaching and i cannot wait. as much as i want to use these holidays to get a head start on things for next semester, i am so sick of getting screwed around by the uni that i just want to go down the beach for a week, drop some acid, turn off my mind, relax and float down stream. the new rmit website is driving me mental. i liked it much better before when everything was just laid out in front of us and we didnt have to go on huge cryptic journey's trying to find the freakin enrolment page to see what classes we have next semester. i only had to log in once, not every single time i navigate to a new page. and why the fuck does facebook keep screwing up. i know i sound like a stupid whiney gen y kid when i complain about not being able to go on facebook, but as i mentioned earlier, i have a social media assignment this semester and must access the evil site in order to work on said project. when i can't even read the messages from my group members, what hope do i have from communicating with said group. still loading. actually the site says it's done loading, but the darn squiggle next to the "messages" button is still waving away and the page is blank so i assumed it was still working away. now blogger is freezing. they are determined from not letting my voice be heard. i printed off a list of computer rooms us media kids are allowed to use and i have information for the bureaucrats sitting in their thrones up their in fantasy world... there are either always classes in there or they are empty rooms that do not have computers in them and are therefore not computer rooms.
im stuck in the library, wrestling with this shitty keyboard that is a bitch to type on [biceps anyone?] after stalking around staring at other people using computers jedi mind powering them into leaving their computer so i can use it, and then when i finally do get on a crappy library pc, im sat next to some crazy old lady who i think just snuck onto a computer that someone forgot to log out of. i thought she might be a tempt or a student here, but she flicked through a folder, printer something, moved her glasses up an down her nose and then left, turned the computer off, left her folder and bag here and disappeared talking to herself. how do these people even get in to the rmit library?
i just downloaded my new roster. on the piece of paper they put on the wall at work where we cross off the days we cant work before the new roster comes out we're allowed to request things like "amap" which stands for "as many as possible" and i stopped doing this because apparently "as many as possible" to my bosses means one shift a week, if that. so this time around i wrote "at least three shifts a week" and for the first week i have one, for the second week i have one. it's not until the third week of the roster that i get at least three shifts a week, and then two weeks after that the restaurant closes for a week so the bosses can go on a holiday. i really need a new job.
i might finally go and see...
oh wait, she's back. still mumbling to herself, but now she has some kind of slip. she's either doing some kind of religious studies, or a cooking class. i can't quite tell, her notes are in that really slopey old school script.
anyway, i might finally go and see a single man tonight as it is on at nova at 9.15pm, which gives me plenty of time to get some work done, and then go enjoy myself. but if i remain as tired as i am right now i may just go home and go to bed. my breath tastes bad so i think i'll go and either get one of those nifty on the go toothbrushes collgate have where on the add some girl is in a bar about to pick up with some sleazy guy and she tells him to hold on a minute while she runs off to the corner of the club to brush her teeth and then comes back to mac on with him.
but i'll probably just get chewy.
