Riding the waves

This weekend has been disgustingly unweekendly. I have done absolutely nothing but read and read and read and read more. Oh, and READ! AAAARGGGH. It never ends and it's all archaeology's fault.

A factor not helpful to this has been my roller coaster of emotions. Friday night all the little bits and pieces built up into a giant ball of lonely suckiness. It wasn't pretty. Props to Paul for getting me through it with my sanity intact.

It turns out you were right all along, though I'd never admit it to you

So, lets say you had to go and talk to a professor about something and the professor closes the door and is like "suck my dick or I'll fail you" what do you do? Haha I swear to god this hasn't happened to me, it's just something random I was thinking about.. lets say its too late to drop the course without it still being included in your GPA. And lets say a drop in your GPA will be absolutely detrimental to your future. You can't drop the course and after this proposition you can't get a good mark in the course if you don't comply. You can't get the prof. in trouble because it's his word against yours and chances are the word of a prof. is more credible, especially with you not having any evidence. Say you're brilliant, a prof. could still have the power to screw your mark, couldn't he? If it came to it, I bet it would be possible for a prof. to say you never wrote a test that you infact did, or something along those lines. It's a little scary to think about, because obviously everything screams DON'T DO IT but under certain circumstances what choice would you really have? What would you do to not get screwed over one way or another?

*This random pondering brought to you by Jenn* (don't ask me why I think about stuff like this because I have no idea haha)

Why is making friends here so god damn hard? I guess I'm just not any good at it or something haha I've been TRYING but it pretty much has seemed like no matter how much effort I expend trying to talk to people and get to know them, they never really seem to return the interest. I get so frustrated when I'm always the one starting conversations and people never make any return effort to start them with me. DO YOU PEOPLE NOT WANT TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS? lol, actually they probably don't, because most people seem to already have a pretty secure friend base, it's just my luck that none of my friends (commuters excepted) went to U of T :S

Trust me that I could rant further on this, but I'll put a lid on it.
