So i called ResLife, and the reason i never got an email telling me about my RA application status is because my D in Japanese last quarter puts my GPA down below the minumum. Great! Probably my favorite class here, and it ruins my chances.

Cheer up, emo kid. At least you weren't almost put on academic probation (y'know, like me). Besides, you've got at least two more years to be an RA. It's not the end of the world.

Plus, it's not like being a Sophomore gives you that much more authority. Better to wait until you're a Junior, and people actually listen to you.

well, my thinking is that now would be a good time to be one, while i still have the desire to live on campus and i'm not overly swamped (taking physics 323-Quantum Mechanics, for example).

I also think that if i lived in Fairhaven, like i want to, it would be hard to be friends with the fresmen under my care as a junior than it would be next year, when i might be around some of my friends from this year.

In any event, now i don't know where i'm living next year, and i don't have any ideas.

Well, I guess the lesson here would be that life throws you a curve every now and again, and ain't a thing you can do besides try to make the best of it.

And I thought that you wanted to live in the floor above yours with the vaulted ceiling next year. Get your posse together and have a blast, even if you're not an RA.

i could try. Most people have off campus ambitions, but i'll start asking around, see what people are thinking about.

Okay, they at least could have send you an e-mail saying that, rather than making you investigate it. That was seriously a bitch move on their part.

But dude. Saying you're a failure?
a. No you're not.
b. But allowing yourself to think that means you will allow yourself to become one.
c. Also, that's totally something Cameron the autistic kid said when he got mad. Then he started hitting himself or banging his head against the wall. You're not a starving autist.

apparently that's the reason i didn't get an email in the first place, because they have some automatic cutoff that doesn't send out emails to people who don't fit that qualification. Which is really smart of them, methinks.

how do i get the freaking babel fish? I've gotten the first 3 steps but i can't get past the flying junk robot, and it's preventing me from doing anything else.

Note that the satchel is on its side.

Meaning you could put something on it.

PS Being an RA is kind of lame anyway. I mean, there's this guy Jordan who is an RA at my school. He doesn't drink or do anything bad, but he was put on probation just for getting caught driving another RA who was drunk home - cause you know, helping out your friends when they could potentially get in a lot of trouble is bad and means you should be on probation, right?

RAs have a lot of dumb rules, you can find a better job, I bet!

I <3 you Zacky! It's really more important to take classes that you enjoy and not do that well in them than to get stellar grades. So if that means you can't be an RA? Well, they really don't know shit, cause you'd be a really great RA. Plus this leaves you open to move off campus next year if you want. OMG party at Zack's! Hope you did well on your physics test!
