the 'classics' are overrated @_@ ive studied them (not by choice really) and haven't found a single one i've actually liked (except shakespeare, if shakespeare is considered a classic, and even then there are only a few of his plays that i love). i dont know why people extoll them so much, they're awful.

i understand the gen ed things, but why do they make u take so MANY? i'm not a moron who cant find yugoslavia (which technically no longer exists since it was broken up into so many little pieces, unless i missed something since 2006) on a map cuz unlike some ppl i can retain information lol. it just seems like an inordinate amount of extra stuff that takes away time from me finishing my major ><;;

I'm gonna try amazon uk then, cuz my campus is practicing extortion once again with their ridiculous prices. Extortion.

I took a series of math courses from Algerbra to Calculus that required two text books and seven courses. Don't ask me anything about any of it. I have never used it. But I have to admit that I enjoyed it. So this may be his reasoning. If you find a subject that interests you, then go for it.

The good thing about varying classes is that it get your brain to work other ways than just the main studies you are in. Mostly they get in the way and use up valuable money better spent elsewhere. But it works to excite thought patterns in some people.

My boss keeps whinging about gorram MSDS sheet which isn't my ferking job but I'll do it just to shut her up. The Cook/Housekeeper is the one responsible but she whines over every little thing. I'll just get the damn things done with already. And if anyone wants to bitch I'll just pull out the job descriptions which clearly states who is responsible for the household/facility chemicals.

Anyhoo, looking to do some fun stuff this weekend. How 'bout y'all?

Stargate 1 on at 10:00 PM on Saturday. Doctor Who comes on at 11:00 PM. Finally Stargate Atlantis is on at 1:00 AM Sunday. That's my big weekend.

Halfway there. Sucks that the weekends are so short. I'm almost willing to work four ten hour shifts. The idea was presented to me and now I might consider it.

I would totally go for four 10 hour shifts and a 3 day weekend each week.


Also I think everyone should check this out http://citizensbriefingbook.change.gov/Home

Register and start voting. It's pretty cool that someone in the government actually wants to find out what we're concerned with. I really hope this page takes off and Obama does like a monthly thing where he answers some of the top issues.

They are sheets that detail info on chemicals and such for various people involved in the facility including fire/rescue. It's actually the cook/housekeepers job to deal with them but trying to get her to (not) do something else in her job description is too much of a hassle.
