Irritated today. >_<
This is just my rant. I've had an annoying day today. So uh. Yea. Feel free to rant too if you're annoyed.

Tuesday's are my bad day. I've got 6 classes. 8:30-3:30. Then I had a general meeting for a club I signed up for. Then I found out that we wasted an entire group meeting yesterday because the professor sent out an e-mail today changing her mind on an assignment, so we have to waste another hour discussing crap.

But I digress.

So first class was Accounting. It's in ITB, so there's the 3 sections of seats. I sat way the hell on the left in a corner at the front. There's 5 seats in those sections, and I was exactly in the middle. It's 5 minutes into class, and this really big guy comes waltzing in. Instead of sitting somewhere at the back, he comes up to the front and plants himself in my row. God forbid he just sits on the end sit, right? Nope, he has to step over me and all my shit and disrupt everything. Then for the next 45 minutes, a pattern emerges. It went kinda like this:

-3 pats to my arm-
Dude: "Hey uh. do you know what he's talking about? what does that say? do you know what that definition is? isn't this -goes off on some huge tangent-?"
Me: Uh, sorry, pardon? I can't hear you.
Dude: -repeats himself-
Me: Sorry dude, you're seriously mumbling. I can't understand.
Dude: -gets annoyed at ME for not understanding his mumbling-

Although, that never stopped him from annoying me some more.

Then, in my third class. I sat in almost the exact same area. It was on the left against the wall. There was an empty seat, an empty seat, me, an empty seat, and a girl on the end. Then this girl's friend came in about 5-10 minutes late. Again, god forbid she just sits quietly on an end and doesn't disrupt everyone. She climbs over her friend, puts her huge ass effing bag down, and her backpack, makes a ruckus pulling out all her crap, and for rest of the class, they do nothing but TALK.

At the end of class, I'm obviously in a rush because I've got 5 classes in a row, and it was at KTH. YEA, ITB TO KTH IN 10 MINUTES, I'M FAT AND 4"11. My stubby ass legs can't make it that fast.

I couldn't get out on the left, so I was politely waiting for the two girls to pack up their stuff and get moving. INSTEAD, the one girl pulls out her mini mirror thing, her eyeliner, and her lipgloss and starts plumping up her lips and her eyebrows.

I literally stood beside her, gave her my "are you effing stupid look" (trust me, I have a look) and about... 1.5 minutes later, she looks at me, and asks me WITH A STRAIGHT FACE, "Oh, do you need to get by?"

...

Just shoot me now.

/ENDRANT.

Sounds like you might need an accounting tutor after missing part of that lecture.

We can negotiate a rate.

Interesting... I sat next to a girl in my Accounting class today. I stepped over her and all her shit and disrupted everything. I never stopped annoying her for 45 minutes. And oh, I weigh 500 pounds...

Joey, Taunton like this.

Lmao, um.

I'll pay you, but not in money. LOL. Ahahahaha. -rolls eyes-

And actually, I can't make it on time to that class. ITB to KTH, then back to KTH. I'm 5+ minutes late. Bleh.

And my T.A made everything seem SO much more complicated... or maybe Mohammed just severely dumbs it down for us.

I go to my accounting tutorial at CNH today.

then I found it oddly suspicious when there were people in the room speaking French so I took out my laptop and changed the timetable.

Turns out they changed the rooms and my timetable's outdated. I now had 7 minutes to speedwalk from CNH to T-13 (which I didn't know where it was and had to text someone on the way as well)



At least the TA was late. Although it really annoyed me that it said my timetable was updated "September 22" on MUGSI.

Didn't catch his name. Like I said, I was late. I missed all the announcements too. He's uh. I don't know how to say this in a PC way, so I'll just say it...

He's indian/brown..? Has an accent. Must be like late 20s, early 30s. He said he's taught over 5k students.

Sorry if it's racist.

Oh ya, he said he was the IA.

I dunno, he just seemed to be going really fast. Him and Dr. Mohammed keep saying, "I'm sure this is review for everyone," but it's not for me. I've never taken accounting. I feel like they're just assuming that and trying to plow through this stuff as quickly as possible.

And they're not consistent with their terminologies. Aadil was just using terms that Mohammed never even introduced to us. Bleh.

Accounting does tend to go very quick if you've never taken it before. It's too bad that people who took it in high school have a big advantage.
