Grrr...

So, I learned on Friday that I was given (first grade I was given - not earned) a C in epidemiology and am now having to contest it because it was the stupidest grade ever! Though I hate the idea of a B, at least I know I earned that! The professor is such a putz - he "teaches" like a putz, holds his conversations like putz, and grades like a

That's a lot of suckiness from different angles all for one day.

Are there any programs with your school that would "count" the Nica program as a course w/o adding on tuition (which is what the GWU programs do to me, hence my lack of fundage for same)?

Because this is not an affiliated school - hell, it's not even a university - no, they can't help me. So, today is the search for money elsewhere: more website chasing and I'm going to call the credit union that holds the title to my car to see if they can just refinance my loan.

And, yes, this is a lot of suckiness... It actually has been a pretty sucky semester overall - from February to now, there's been Dr. Blake's death, my brother's break-up, stuff with Dad, a way too expensive trip that was too short, our break-up, TOO MUCH DRIVING, too many classes and a house that smells like a dirty litter box! And always just enough money. I'm a bit tired now and starting to feel lazy...

But, like I said earlier, this will all work out - it always does somehow - and I have earned myself the most amazing summer ever just by living through it!

BTW - I logged on to IM for the first time in a long while last night and got the cartoon strip. That was very funny... and, yes, so very true, too. Thank you for thinking of me.

My check engine light comes on when I'm supposed to have a 20,000, 30,000, or 50,000 mile maintenance check-up. Did you recently roll-over a check-up milestone?

[peace_cory]

A friend mentioned that to me the day it happened, so I looked at the mileage: 110,670... It just seems like such a random time for it to happen. It supposedly had all of the 90,000 mile maintenance done to it when I bought it a year ago at 88,000 miles, so now I'm not sure. Someone will look at it today... at some point... when I get my lazy ass of the computer!

Thanks for the suggestion!

For my last car, that light meant that it was time to replace the black electrical tape that usually covers the "check engine soon" light.

I miss that car.

that was me, silly computers.
