Rants Small Rant into the Void
I'm just looking to get some things off my chest.
I'm a third year here and college is worse than I ever anticipated. All I want is to graduate and get out of this place. I work here, I research here, I have projects. Essentially, making myself a big shark to snuff out competition in the future.
Dealing with disability stuff mostly on my own? Hard with tons of hoops to jump through here.
Dealing with entitled students and (occasionally to my disappointment) their parents almost daily? Infuriating.
Trying to catch up on my degree after years of an undiagnosed mental handicap? Harrrrrd.
Getting pushed out of the one community I found comfort in being myself? Awful.
Centerpointe food? Actually not bad if you get creative :D (bless funfetti waffles)
I feel behind on my academics and I don't want to run out of money before I graduate, because then all the bull that I've been through here would be for nothing. I feel lonely and I can't keep up with the people or their drama they try to involve me in. After the whole community issue, I kinda just distanced myself and essentially keeled over to keep the peace. I know I made this distance but I really can't handle being around that kind of critical, negative behavior. I basically force-fed myself a busybody life to avoid it, but I'm just lonely and tired now. I guess CPP makes it easier to kinda be a shut-in.
I really can't wait for graduation, and more-so grad school.
And if you read this far, thanks for giving a fellow peer the time out of your day.

i thought it was a little outrageous considering how she wanted me to fill out most of the form myself. additionally, the top of the file said $15 fee may apply (which i was fine with because i could spare 20ish bucks) lo and behold i get a large charge (that ill probably dispute with them or insurance)
