Thread: Rant and Rave, Cry and Complain

It's okay Carrot!

My rant is that I double posted. I meant to edit the first post

Dammit had another stupid dream about her. I just want to leave her behind, but thats apparent that it won't happen until I actually leave here, and even then she is in my dreams. I don't wanna live like this, it really sucks. So now I don't want to go out to public especially the lake, because she frequents it, but it doesn't matter since my subconscious apparently doesn't feel its had closure. Now I'm gonna sit here bored and bummed out all morning.

@dakotahnok - I've learned that sometimes changes with the market take up to 48 hours to process. If it goes beyond that, ask for help again.


Rant = The temperature of the lake is 86F right now. When I turn on the cold water tap of my bathroom sink the water coming out is not cold.

My random minor rant is that I'm talking to someone who can't differentiate between there and their. It's more annoying than I thought it would be...

Yeah their really annoying people, aren't they?

Yea, there the worst!

I go to my apartment to make sure everything is fine. They fixed the leak that was continually getting worse inside of the bathroom roof. Okay, good, but the toilet is slightly leaking out.

I've had this same problem when I first rented the apartment, they fixed it, or so it seems, and now it's starting to become a little problem that I will have to notify the realtors again. These people....are scumbags, they've gotten horrible reviews, basically deemed as incompetents in satisfying tenants and their problems. For the roof leakage, I had to call these idiots twice, and sustaining a "nice" personality to make sure they got this SIMPLE task of masking the roof so it wouldn't leak was REALLY hard to do for me.

I'm a nice person in waking life, I don't really have anything against these realtors, but when it comes to utilities and bills, if these fuckers keep slacking off on my maintenance request, when I've politely done so in the first place and they don't acknowledge this, I'm going to go CRAZY. I just hope that when I send the maintenance report for next week, that I won't get a response of


"Oooh, we're sorry, we'll make sure the maintenance guy comes tomorrow."

Whenever that bitch tells me that, I want to tell her to go FUCK HERSELF. I'm bitching about this because these small problems WILL make the utility bills increase, and if I don't settle this to where it isn't my responsibility to sustain, they are going to do everything in their power to leech my money. Ugh.....PLEASE...I just HOPE these people will comply with my request as quickly as possible.

Oh and another thing, I checked the mail that was stuffed in my apartment mailbox, carefully read it to see that apparently, the courses that I'm enrolled in do not satisfy degree requirements for my Biochemistry Major.

Okay okay okay okay, WHAT? You gave me a fucking handbook of all the electives, courses, and a fucking SPREADSHEET of what I have to take. Even a fucking 4 year old could register for my classes if I wanted them to. Now I'm getting a letter saying I haven't met the requirements for said major?

Even if that were the case, I made sure those courses I took filled the elective slots for Biochemistry, because there's a lot of hours filled in there. There has to be an error, because I spent A LOT of time making sure I had the PERFECT schedule to where I wouldn't be crying because I only had 1 hour of sleep, coming into lab looking fucked up, and barely managing to pass my courses.

I'm worried because if I can't go for the Biochemistry and Genetics Double Major route, I have to find some other major to satisfy the courses I'm enrolled in. Which brings me to another issue of hoping I'm eligible for taking the double major. I talked to one of my Biochemistry professors and said that for a double major, all I have to do is take a few more electives courses related to Genetics.

And these aren't "electives," these are NOT FUCKING electives, the classes alone, based on what I've reviewed, involve some intense and critical thinking. Okay, that may sound stupid, because I'm getting what I'm paid for, but to categorize these courses as "electives," when electives serve to be as for shits and giggles to fill in hours, I.....I don't even know what to say to this.

I'm going to e-mail that there has to be an error, and even if they said they "carefully" reviewed my overall academic record, something is wrong, because really......the fucking spreadsheet and handbook is as easy as hell.

Or maybe I'm just retarded?

I sure as hell hope that I can fucking take the double major, because I'm not going to sign up for a fucking loan on courses that do not meet the requirements, even though IT DOES????

This is a bunch of faggotry, I expected this vacation to be nice and sweet, took care of financial aid, getting a loan set up, and now I have this nonsense?

Please......just please, I hope I can take the double major, because really, there can't be some hard requirement to shift to this major, because honestly, only 80+ people majored in Biochemistry or Genetics COMBINED.....so there HAS to be open slots, because I know there are people who already switched their majors because they're a bunch of piss poor pricks afraid of some rigorous courses.

Man....I bitch and complain, but at least I fucking see difficult shit through in the end. *Sigh* Even if these courses will be hard, it's not as if it's impossible. Every time there's hearsay on "ooh noo, this course is too hard....ohhhh no, the professors sux0rs," I give up faith in this generation.

I don't want to be a shithead like them. Please, for the love of *whatever entity you want here*, please let this be some kind of error, and if so, PLEASE tell me that I can shift to the double major instead of just majoring in Biochemistry.

I don't really care what path I'm taking with Science, I just want money, because the way things are now, there are no happy endings if I fuck up now.

I'm just going to relax, play a game, and hope things go well.

I can't help but feel terrible about what I'm doing, even though I believe it's the right thing to do.... I'm housesitting for a friend while she's away on vacation, and she has this dog that's old and very sick. From what I've heard, in the past few days she's been eating less and less. I didn't think on it much this morning because she doesn't make her presence very known, but upon checking her bowl now when I was going to feed her for dinner, there's barely any food missing at all. This friend of mine is very anti-drug and trusts me completely, but I'm now actively checking with my friends in the area to find some weed so that I can get this dog high so she'll be hungry and feel better. I hate that I'm doing this, but I refuse to sit here and watch this dog be in pain and starve herself when I know that I can do something to help.

Don't do it

Why the fuck can't I stop wanting to talk to every human being about LDing and dreams and tell people about it when I think they have the slightest potential to get a LD!!?@#?@#$@!$@!#$@!#$@!

My friend is asking me if he can go on my account on facebook so he can talk with this girl. I said no and now he's getting mad -_-. I don't know how that makes any sense, I don't want you to talk to someone when they think it's me talking to them... Plus I don't know what he's gonna say, or if he will change my password, etc.

Dafuq mannnnn >_>

Time will be your best medicine.

How about a vet?

You mentioned the dog is old and sick, giving it weed doesn't sound like a good idea, what if weed is too much for it to handle?

I wouldn't give it if I were you too. For exactly the first reason, that I don't want others to talk to another person posing as me.

My rant: I'm thoroughly obsessed with an actress after watching a drama. It was a re-watch. I was obsessed with her the first time I completed that drama too. But I don't feel it's obsession although I stayed up the whole night to watch her clips, I am too used to getting obsessed.

She's not having some kind of medical emergency or anything, and they already know that she doesn't have much longer... she's just in pain. She'll be fine. The point isn't to get her super stoned or anything, just to give her enough to help her not suffer as much and be able to eat so she can get some energy back. But thanks for the concern.

I... well, wait, I'm pretty sure we talked about this. So I'll keep it really short. I'm not one to judge how other people live their lives, but I always figure, if you're spending that much money you might as well do something you enjoy. And from your other posts it doesn't sound like you enjoy it. Just saying.

As for your other complaints, you have my sympathy. Thankfully they never screwed up in college, but I swear every year when I was in high school they'd mess up my schedule. It led to a few awkward moments, like being put into Art II when going through Art I was more than enough for me... and that art teacher thought the world of me or something. For some reason people have always liked my art even though I hate it. So yeah... it was an awkward moment. I think I was in that class for half a semester before they finally fixed things. >.>

Your thing on electives? Well technically "electives" just mean, the classes that aren't required for your major. So you choose or "elect" them. Not that I don't understand where you're coming from -- I had several electives that were tougher than my programming classes. But for the most part, I ended up enjoying them.

This is really patronizing.

I think I'll just vent out on a notepad. Yes, this seems more appropriate. I'm clearly not human in some of these rants I've made.

I'm 99% certain Magic Mike is just a way to capitalize on women who are too embarrassed to go to a strip club. That and teenage girls. I heard a 14 year old girl say today to her friend's older sister: WILL YOU TAKE ME TO SEE MAGIC MIKE?!

My first thought was: What? My second thought was YOU'RE 14! Then again, she and her 14-year old friends had iPhones. YOU'RE GROWING UP TOO FAST, CHILDREN! STAY YOUNG AND INNOCENT AND iPHONELESS!

When I was 14, I went to the adult section of newgrounds, and then my life changed forever.

That's just a horrible idea... but i guess you already did it since you posted this 9 hours ago...

Oh come on Link.

You know we read your rants. I want to know how you're doing in life too.

My rant: I dropped two unused DVD-Rs on the floor. /heartbreak

I picked it up and there was no cracks. I cleaned it and placed it in my laptop and it worked perfectly. But I'm still paranoid that there are you know... Aftereffects.

I laugh and say I jinxed the east. After my rants about the fuse blowing, we lost electricity for 36 some hours. They were estimating we'd be without power for up to 5 days. Thankfully, it didn't last that long!!

Dakotah, we live apart which is WHY we don't have any issues
Hubby doesn't like animals or noisy kids. For his peace of mind and my nerves (after the nanny didn't work out) we just lived apart. We've lived across the yard from each other for about 12 years!

I'm exhausted. Yesterday, I helped hubby set up his solar panels in the scorching heat. That included hacking away at some over grown weed-trees/bushes that blocked the basement window where the battery is located. We worked for several hours.
Then I sat outside in the shade and just read. I've gone through half of Dune Messiah.

We've had basically no food during this time. My boys are such big babies. Exxon was open for a couple of hours yesterday- goods only, no gas. I bought some Coke and tea, chips, candy, sausage and cheese. But we also still had fruit from that basket.

I hated being cut off from the world. I missed CNN most of all lol

**EDIT**
Oh yeah, When the power first died Friday night, the kids saw a car in hubby's driveway. We thought it was him, so I went out to talk to him. It was some woman and her 2 young kids. They were obviously VERY shaken and she asked if she could stay in our house for awhile. She swore she drove through a tornado. They were on their way from Florida back home to Pennsylvania. I laughed and told her if there was a tornado, a trailer might not be the safest place. I was trying to put them at ease. I also warned that my place wasn't the cleanest. She didn't care.
We stood in the doorway and watched the lightning and talked for about 20 minutes and then she took off. She returned about 30 minutes later because her daughter lost a potholder she had made for her dad.
I found the potholder yesterday afternoon

It was a very strange experience and it made me realize I need to brush up on my hospitality skills. The little boy commented that he was shaking because he was so scared "my teeth are going up and down" I told him it was also because he was cold and a little wet. It never occurred to me to offer them a towel. Not that we had any clean ones anyhow, but it never even occurred to me
I also didn't offer them something to drink. I feel a little like an ass, but I did offer sanctuary, so I guess it balances out in the long run.

Yes I did, and she ate more and seemed much more active and positive for the rest of the night. I don't regret it for a second.
