Well what do you know, I'm up to entry number two. Break out your shovels, it's gonna' snow tonight folks. Anyway, it's time to move on to more pressing matters.
I recently transferred from Anne Arundel Community College (AACC) to University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). Why did I put the abbreviations in parentheses you might ask? Well, for one, I don't feel like typing that shit out every time I make a simple reference. And two, I'm just fucking lazy. As I was saying, I just got finshed putting my two years in at AACC this past spring and now I've moved on to bigger and more pain in the ass things. Hence, UMBC. I don't want people to think that I have a problem with the school in general. It is a pretty nice university I suppose. In fact, for all intensive purposes, it could be the school that God himself attended. The point is, I am tired of doing fucking schoolwork. I was tired of it the minute my first grade teacher told me to write my name on that first spelling test. For those of you who fail to comprehend the depth of my hatred pool, let me paint a little picture for you. Here I am sitting in English class reading along with the teacher as she slowly, painstakingly annunciates every single word on the syllabus. Ever wonder why we even have to go to class that first day? All the teacher does is read their own creation aloud as if we were unable to read or comprehend any written text. Why not just email us the damn course outline and give us one more day off. Back to what I was saying....I'm sitting in class reading when I came to several conclusions all at once. It was like an orgy of epiphanies. One...I'm in my third year of college...why the fuck am I still in English? Do our school systems think that after 19 years spent living in America that I am still unable to speak the English language. Or maybe I still cannot write a coherent essay. I just happened to ace all of my previous 12 english classes by accident. Flukes fucking happen I guess. Two...what is the point of all this work I'm about to be assigned? Like I'll be working some day and my boss will ask me to write a 500 word essay comparing the Industrial Revolution to why I don't give a fuck. Seriously, enough with the fucking essays. Why don't we practice balancing checkbooks instead? Three....fuck english...that's what three is. I don't want to come across like a whiney little baby...it's just that I don't see the point of having to take classes that don't pertain to my major. I thought that was supposed to be covered in gradeschool. Anyway, I guess I'm just ranting a bit because college started up again this past Wednesday...I got all these syllabi and assignments....and I basically don't feel like reading/completing any of them. I fucking hate reading textbooks. If anyone ever wants to have a textbook bonfire with me...just hit me up.
Maybe I don't get as much out of college because I decided to say fuck loans. It is this said fuckage that has lead me to be a commuter. I guess I'm kind of missing out on a big part of the "college experience"...but hey, I'll have saved a lot of money when it's all over. My parents agreed to pay for my college as long as I don't live on campus. I really appreciate that...it will help a lot when I move out. Well, I guess that about wraps this up. I'm going to try highlighting each of my main points at the end of each of my entries. This will be the first....so in summary:
*I'm tired of schoolwork
*Fuck english, syllabi, and loans...oh essays too..especially fuck essays
*Missed college experience...*sad violin music plays*
*Thanks mom and dad for putting out the money
*Is there a checkbook in the house?
*I'm still the man
this entry seems like it's been cut off ^^;; oh well! YAY! first to comment XDDD
okay... i probably dont understand the depth of your hatred for schoolwork, but i'm a BIG, loyal fan of procrastination... you should try it some time ;) you'll stop hating schoolwork so much, i expect =3
eh... it depends what work you do though, but since you're in uni i'm guessing you *should* and are most likely doing a subject you enjoy...? surely doing some work on that isnt that bad? =3

I agree with Kuri. It ended so suddenly. Was it cut off? o.0
Everyone has a deep hatred for schoolwork. Only we're supposed to outgrow it. I wonder when that is? XD

Alright, I got it. Your entry's back in shape. And really long, too. XP
I definitely totally understand. I feel exactly the same way and I'm only in high school. Don't get me wrong, I love english. But it just gets annoying. The same things over and over again. I'm tired of going through the motions with nothing new.
Shame about missing out on the college experience. But this way you'll be the only one with enough money left to rent a better-than-decent apartment. That is if you live in the city.
You've used the word f***k a lot in this entry. Because there is no other word to describe what you're going through. And maybe no other word you can think of at the moment. ^-^
Yes, you're still the man. XD

haha okay looks like the whole entry's up now ^_^
eh... okay i guess you're *not* doing work in something you enjoy after all... o_O;; i dont understand why you have to do english to do your chosen major... but then again, it depends on what that major is, i suppose... =/ but dont worry! if you do the work now, it'll all be worth it in the future =]
...or at least, that's what i keep telling myself from keeping myself from going insane ^^;;
ah, that's cool that your parents are paying for your uni fees! =D my parents have been saving up for me, so i guess it's the same thing really... =/ okies, well, i hope you will stop hating english and see the beauty of literature!
............. o_O;; i'm such a hypocrite, saying something like that ^^;; (i hate english too, thank God i can drop it and it has nothing to do with what i want to do in future... well, not really...)

i agree. i agree with everything you said... but let's face it, you knew that already...
...and i second the notion of procrastination. it's gotten me where i am today. furthermore, i retract my seconding the notion.
cheers,
sank
