fun times. . . .
So, I've got less than a week until I propose my senior thesis. Why am I so sure of failure?

Oh, and my Fundamentals of C & I is, in addition to being a dumbshit, a nasty sonofabitch. I'll be lucky to B this course, which is ridiculous. I know how to work a damn computer, thankuverymuch. He'll take any opportunity available to deduct points from everything I do. Motherfucker needs a truck to the head.

I want out of college. . . I've been doing this for four years. I'm done. Really. I don't give a shit that this is supposed to be the treasured time of my young life. I'm fairly certain I'm not going to look back on my useless, shitass Liberal Arts courses in ten years and go, "Oh, if only I was there now. . . ." No. I want to start my real life. I should be graduating this year, but thanks to RIT's policy on accepting transfer students, (namely, "yeah, we know you have enough credits to graduate, but we're going to squeeze you for that extra year so you spit out forty grand") I'm not. I don't want to lose my friends, or my awesome house, but I am dooooone with this college bullshit.

Rowr. My stomach hurts. And I wish my goddamn professor would shut up about rods and cones. Or at the very least, take the rod out of his ass.

Sweetheart, I wouldn't be a friend at all if I didn't counsel against that. I know it sucks, I hate having to go through it all over again myself, but that extra year is going to be the difference between getting your sheepskin and being able to tell employers that you toughed it out through one of the top schools in the region, if not the nation, or saying, "I couldn't hack it."

That's what they are going to see, Annette, no matter how much talent you have. They are just going to think of you as a quitter, and hire people who you can stand head and shoulders above because they didn't.

Take a semester off if you have to, Annette, but please please please PLEASE don't give up and drop out! (drops to knees and begs)

you have the credits to graduate right?
so just got part time on your seinor thesis
you pay like 3000 a class so it will be like 1/4 the price you normally would have

Sorry you're having such a time of it. That was high school for me. College was fun and I was sorry it ended, but happy to start "my real life." In my career, the sheepskin isn't that big of a deal, but in most it is. You have all sorts of talent, so it's up to you, but I'd say you can make it through this thesis BS.

I am in college .. and i am in my .. second year .. ish .. i took my first semester off after high school and took a part time summer semester (2 courses) and i am currently taking yet another summer semster... last semster i felt like i didnt want to do this anymore ... and i am only on general studies taking random courses that transfer to university because i am interested in them ... dont get me wrong i love going to class and learning but the stressload really takes its toll.. so i know how you feel and i can sympathize... the best thing i can say is yeah its a bitch to have to pay so much .. but you are so close and i believe that you can do it :) so good luck and dont sweat the stupid teachers who have nothing better to do to make themselves feel better than take it out on other people who have lots of talent ... and you do...

everything will work out in the end

ciao
