Aww thanks Kelkhil. By Friday I might need more than one.
I've even got an undercover assignment this week. A student who's notoriously difficult to observe because he figures out he's being observes and adjusts accordingly.... so I will be the new " temp" aide in his class for 3 days from 9am-1pm. then I have to cram all my other school visits, meetings, and behavior plans/observations/trainings into the 2.5 hours left and the hour before...

RF/LF: Sorry to hear that you're grounded again. I'd suggest that you do what you need to so that your grades go up, but that's just the teacher in me. (The cynic side wants to point out that you may as well get used to what all adults have to do -- jump through crazy hoops to get what you want...and right now, the "want" is the privilige to go online...) Feel free to take that with a grain of salt.

MsA: Ewww... I'm sorry. I don't envy you the "undercover" and the backlog of work you have to do.

SR: Wait...so holidays means you work an 8-hour day, two 12-hour days, and a 4-hour day? *boggles*

*leaves huggle-bombs that will glomp onto Kel tightly*

*leaves hugs for everyone else who wants one*

(I just bought a second hand Giant bike on Saturday... The brand was recommended by a friend of mine, and was in my price range. Plus, it came with a cover, a rack and basket, front light, 2 locks, an inner tube, and a helmet... It's a realy smooth ride. Yay! 'Course now I have less reasons to avoid exercising. *shrug* Oh well.)

I hate roadworks... they turned a really simple journey down a straight road into a 2 and a half hour run around looking for my destination. Of course, when I was giving up and just heading home defeated, I drove past it. So all was alright in the end. But if you see someone doing roadworks later, give them an evil glare.

To clarify: I only get 8 hours of holiday. I have to come in and make up the other 4 hours if I want to get paid for them. If I do not make them up then I will not have worked 36 hours and do not get the 4 "bonus" hours which bring me up to getting paid for 40 hours of work. Sorry for the confusion.

Do you think that if I offered to come in and work on stuff for four hours on the holiday they'd take it well?
Me neither.

I'm home, and I even managed to get stuff done. I'm half listening to the inaugural ceremony on NPR. The rest of my attention is split between here and my lunch. Ooh! Aretha's on!

*edit*
Well, lunch and the peaceful transfer of power are over. Here's hoping neither leaves anyone with indigestion!

*hugs Navy* Long time no see! Road work is so much of the not-fun. But potholes the size of a coffin are even less fun. (I kid you not, one side of a road had a pothole that was a freakin' rectangle that was well hidden by a gi-normous puddle. *shudders*

SR: Ahh...*counts on fingers* *tries to do the calculations on paper* *tries again on an abacus* *tries on a calculator which explodes* *brain melts* *gives up* Okay. (Teh maths is confuzzling me)
Yeah. I don't see HR being happy with the "12 hours on a holiday?!" thing. *meh*
Glad to hear that the inauguration was a nice one. I wish him well in the office and hope that the next 4 years are better than the last 8.

Hmm. I am slightly off to the left field; I homeschool my kids. I guess that means that all their work could be classified as *home*work*.

Yes, it's boring, but it serves a purpose. I found that if you keep your nose clean and you do the work, you can get into the fun colleges, get the good jobs and then do what you want when you grow up... rather than struggling with mediocre income. But that's just my opinion!

*stumble-teleports in* phew, wow, *long* day, but not really a bad day. my classes seem like theyre going to be interesting (even though one of my teachers came off a *little* condescending and stuck up this morning, hopefully it was just because she was trying to insure people would actually *work* in the class), except i think my Creative Writing class (i'm a writer for those who don't know) is gonna suck. My teacher is an awesomely nice and enthusiastic guy, but he's stressing poetry, and I can't stand poetry >< can't write it either, and I've had lots of opportunities to write for class assignments, never went well.... In any event, we'll be doing a short story in that class too, looks like this semester should be fun ^_^

Listen to this woman LF, she speaks the truth. I never did homework, didn't get good grades, didn't go to university and have only had crappy jobs. Don't get me wrong, it could have been much worse and I've still had some awesome times since leaving school... but I constantly wish I could have put the effort in then rather than need to think about making up for it now.

MsA is insane. Don't forget that.

I didn't do my homework. Fuck homework. Never really studied for tests, either. Yet I got into university, got my Bachelor's Degree with two minors (really no big deal), and have a high paying job. Hu-fucking-zah. On the other hand, I know plenty of people who did their homework, went to college, and still have shit jobs making shit money living a shit life. The point? Anything can happen.

Also very true. Especially the bit about MSA being insane. Good point and well made. I ended up going to Dragon*con and loads of other crap I wouldnt have had time/money to do if at University all this time, and some of my friends that have went to uni are still no better off than I am. So I can't complain too much. I just really wish I put a bit more effort. Ah well.

My fault for the sudden influx of advice on homework and life after school. Tho' my thought has been as still is "get used to jumping through hoops" (it's easier to hear than "we know and want what's best for you"). Sorry.

True enough (and may I say that I was one of those who strugged in college and ended up in a shit job).
Again, my point for the unsolicited advice: Get used to jumping through hoops to get what you want -- that's real life. If I work for a living and want to get paid and live comfortably but the current workplace situation is sucky? Gotta learn to deal with it, do what the boss wants (within reason) so that I can get what I want. Simple as that.

Well hello...

Long week, already had to put a server swap back a fortnight, things falling over all round and my personal favourite, trying to arrange for a stack of monitors to be safely disposed off, company delivers some wooden boxes, somebody unloads them with a fork lift to somewhere they shouldn't, the boxes it seems get carted of by pallet disposal who apparent dispose of the pallets by burning!



Sometimes I hate people!

Hope everyone else is good and have to say, I am very jealous of HK's amazing construction skills, I'd end up with one useless usb stick if I tried to make something awesome out of it, ah well, at least I can play the drums pretty well.

*snatches some coffee and curls up in a heated tent* oooooooh, whatcha reeeeeeeadin?

well, a bunch of people are going to be very angry with the unidentified person who got them all parking tickets in the commuter lot today XD. ppl on this campus don't really know how to drive, or park, and there's about half a row of people who are double parked. I got blocked in by one of these people, so I called the dispatcher and she called the owner. Meanwhile my boyfriend, who is pure fucking magical with cars, came down and managed to squeeze my car out through a spot diagonally up from mine (thank god there was no one parked directly next to me or this would have been impossible) without any damage to either of the cars parked to either side of this mini-cooper-sized spot. So I called the dispatcher back and said "yeah, the car's still there, but a friend managed to help me get out through a small open space near my car. but there's still a row of double-parked cars sitting out here." and of course her response was "okay, we're going to send a car down to *forget the word she used, but i think it was a synonym for 'remedy'* the situation." They didnt tell me to stay put, so i went home to defrost my slowly numbing body ><
That's my campus story for today XD

From what I understand from talking to him about it, the rules in Navy's neck of the world are a little different. They don't have graduation the same way we do, and if you don't pass everything you don't get to do it over and you don't get to go to university. (and they refer to the education level we think of as 'high school' as 'college' which just adds to some confusion) If you want to go to university, there's not the option to test in or take remedial classes like there is here. At a certain age, you can do adult learning or somesuch, and go to a university. Seils isn't at that age, though, so he can't be in school right now, even if he wants to. At least this is his story, he might just be lazy
My grades were decent in high school, despite minimal effort, I just didn't enjoy it at all so I left. There were years thereafter of crap jobs for crap pay, and I enjoyed myself even less. Higher level edumacation has been much more enjoyable than high school ever was, I'm glad I went back, not just because it's going to get me out of miserable crap jobs for crap pay.
Speaking of class, I'm in class right now, and should really be doing something productive, but I am technically done with the assignment for today. This web design stuff is pretty cool, I'm even enjoying the coding aspect! Exciting.
And I managed to have the time and money for DragonCon the last couple years, even being in school
Gosh I hope I make it this year

Anyway, I thought I should pop in to see how everyone was and confirm to those that might be wondering that I'm still alive and well. Been meaning to do a blog or something lately, since I've found myself wondering what's up with everyone and thinking they might be wondering too, but I haven't done that. I'm a little sleep deprived, sorry for the non sequiturial kind of babbling.

Aisling: Of course there's a fireplace here...there's some comfy chairs and a nice warm rug to sit on nearby. (Some of us also retreat there when we're socially anti-social).

Just to make Kel happy, a third appearance.

MsA: I guess it was out of love (or greatly insane delusion).

FLT: *heh* Tough cookies for the double-parkers. I'm glad your BF was able to get you out of the parking area though. 'Course it would be funny if the double-parkers were there 'cause the parking attendant told them they could do that...

gee: ACK! The server swap setback sucks (and yes, I'm giggling over the alliteration), but the monitors? Yick. Glad I'm not the one to handle that issue. (People can be extremely stupid at times.) *comfort*

lol, yes Aisling it was an interesting adventure XD

Neko: yeah, I hear ya. We don't have a parking attendant on campus (way too many parking lots) but if there were I doubt they'd tell ppl they can double-park, because the cops on campus ticket HEAVILY for parking violations. There were plenty of spaces open in the lot, they just parked there because they thought it was a valid spot (due to the other @%$#@ parked illegally) and they wanted to be close to the bus stop :P lol its amazing how viciously ppl fight over parking spots that are close to the exit/bus stop.
and yeah, as i said before my BF is a magician with cars. he finds a way to make things work ^_^

You're kinda right rose. You can do it over, but if you want to go to Uni at school leaving age and dont get all the required grades for a subject at the same time, usually they up the requirements. After school one can go to college and sit the same classes you did in school, but again, the requirements change. If you are classed as a mature student, which I might be getting close to, then they often lower the requirements so long as you attend some type of refresher course or something before the main event. It's not impossible for me to still attend Uni, it would just have been a hell of a lot easier if I got it first chance around.

and me going to uni for music... that must be more trademark msa insane talk.

GEE


hey Kel, HK,

how you doing today?

First down day of the year at work, in fact all three of us are feeling like crap but at least its quiet.

Anyone ever have any problems making decisions? I'm usually pretty decisive but running this stuff round in my head for a few months. Guess cause it's all about music and that's how I've defined myself for years so even though in the grand scheme of things pretty insignificant but can't make my mind up. Then me and other half made the decision to move house in about two days and already had a pretty successful meeting with a mortgage adviser so just need to get the flat sold.

sorry, rambling, strange day, if you're really unlucky I'll get onto my school/uni stuff.

MsA, I'm thinkin' that you are under-appreciated for your work. Here's to hoping that you can get through to him and give him a bit of the help and direction he needs. (Sometimes I think that most people shouldn't be allowed to breed... but that's another soapbox lol).

*Dishes up chocolate chip cookies* Good for what ails ya!

Things have been a bit wonky here too. A watermain burst down the street and my pipes still froze. And the cat was gracious enough to not vomit on the bed... just the carpet next to it. Yup - it's a Thursday!!! *roflmao*
