okay, so my hump days are very, very looonnnggg days. i'm at school from 8 to 8 but it means i have to wake up at 6 so i end up getting pretty cranky around 3 because i haven't had my afternoon nap. yesterday was a hundred times worse than it had to be though... apparently some big storm on tuesday night knocked out a transformer or something so the business building on campus had NO airconditioning. it must have been at least a million degrees in my first class. everyone was fanning themselves and counting down the seconds until we could get back outside to where it was only 80 degrees.
what made this whole thing worse is that i get to my first class and am already uncomfortable when a rather big guy comes in and plops down in front of me... he's all sweaty on his neck and i can see his shirt startin to get all sweated through and he's kinda breathin funny in a stuffed up nose, wheezy way. and he's like 10 inches in front of me. ugh. as rude as it would have been to move, i realized i should have just said fuck being polite because half way through class the smell hit me. nasty sweaty BO. it didn't help that he kept raising his hand because he is one of those people who has a lot of comments about everything.
so this was kind of my theme all day yesterday. everywhere i went there was some really ungodly BO smell. after trying to hold my breath half the day i was feelin kinda woozy so i escaped to another building just to sit in the air conditioning for awhile. i decided to check out where my financial aid was because it was supposed to have already been applied to my tuition and put into my bank account. i waited in line for an hour before getting to the window where the brilliant financial aid worker told me it was "in the final stages of processing" and "i don't know when it will be disbursed". i pointed out the very obvious fact that they splash everywhere... if you have your paperwork file completed by Aug 1st you are guaranteed your loan in time to pay for tuition. well, i turned in all my paperwork and that time has come and gone. the guy just looked at me blankly, then told me i would need to pay tuition out of pocket by the 14th or they will drop all my classes. oh, AND if i don't pay before the 1st of sept they will charge me a $50 late fee. so i asked him once and for all... where is the money? with the lender? is paperwork missing? what do i need to do??? "just wait for it"
fuckin brilliant.
i think the highlight of my day was noticing the logo on the bathroom stalls... hiney hiders. it's a big H which is drawn as a bathroom door with a head poking over and "iney" and "iders" off to the right... it made me smile. :o)
