I’ve forgotten what school is.

As a community college student... yeah. Same here.

Spring Break is almost here. Just one more presentation and one more test. God, I can't wait for a break.

My new semester is looking good. Only have to deal with super early classes for the mondays and wednesdays, Thursdays are almost free of classes except for a class late in the afternoon, and I’m leaving pretty early from Wednesday and on. The classes are considerably tougher on the text side of studies, however, so this new schedule should aliviate some of the stress that’ll go with it.

Currently applying for internships and other positions in my area. I'm starting to really hate California. Every single one of these jobs is for "social media relations" and shit like that. I wonder if they actually want to pay me to run their Twitter accounts, or if there's something in these descriptions I'm missing.

Got my fingers crossed for this one tech sales job, though... my Lou Bloom-esque personality could come in really handy there...

Heading off to take the SAT. Wish me luck.

That wasn’t too bad. A couple stragglers on the reading and longer math sections but other than that it was easy. Ended up getting cut short on the essay again but it was on my last sentence so it won’t be a problem.

Do you know what scoring system they use these days? I know it used to be out of 1600 or something, but when I took it, it was 2400, and I'm pretty sure they changed it again.

I’m not quite sure. College Board forces you to download their app in order to see how your results would work, and I’ve been too lazy to see how some practice runs would work. I think it might be back to 1600 based on some conversations I’ve had with people who took it this year.

Woah... I might actually get an internship with my anti-gun, pro-welfare pothead hippie congressman. This'll be interesting.

My student grant that was given by the Uni has been revoked and I'm pretty pissed about it for a multitude of reasons. The most glaring one is that they sneaked an email at the very start of the new semester (so it would hide among the bombardement of the other shit associated with it) that I happened to somehow miss, and it informed the need to renovate the grant despite that they told me the year before that it was not necessary to renew it and the grant would last for the entirety of my career. Then I asked a social assistant fr a resumption of the grant and they basically gave me the middle finger since the elapsed time for that particular thing had already come to a close just a few days back.

This has costed me nearly 165 bucks in the latest fee, and I'll post a claim at the student affairs, but so far, I don't have faith in this university anymore.

That sucks dude. I hope you're able to get it fixed.

Got welcomed back to school with the news that I’ll have to take another round of standardized testing tomorrow. Lovely.

Charles Longboat Jr. · « **Reply #1632 on:** April 05, 2018, 12:10:50 am »

Have to take another round of SAT next week due to it being the one my school is sponsoring this year. I got a 1340 (on the 1600 scale) from last month’s SAT so it’s not all too daunting. I would like to improve though.

Charles Longboat Jr. · « **Reply #1633 on:** April 10, 2018, 08:58:09 pm »

SAT wasn’t so bad the second time around. Then again I said that about the one from last month. At least I get two half days...that I will have to use to finish a book for an assignment due Monday.

Reign in Treet · « **Reply #1634 on:** April 11, 2018, 08:38:53 pm »

Fucking hell, this shit just got real, real fast. All I've done this week: work-school-homework-workout (maybe)-sleep. I feel like I've got a lot accomplished, but when I compare what I've actually done to what I want to have done by Sunday evening......oh God.

Well, my social life has officially become a bad teen drama. Wonderful.

This post is all too accurate with my friend group. I’ve been told it’s part and parcel to junior year, but it’s unfortunate given that I prided my group on not getting mired in drama.

I miss how hard Calc II was.

I might miss school Friday because of the teachers’ strike in Colorado. It’s a bit double edged in that we’re in the middle of some mock AP exams and I have several tests that I would rather to not have to study for over the weekend.

Hell - Braden's school has been on strike for like 2 months.

Dude, double and triple integrals suck so much ass, lol. If I pass this test, I am done with the class, though.
