Ugh. Everything, for some reason, seems to have fallen apart.

The loan company, whom I paid, who thinks I haven't paid them, is threatening to ruin my credit for all eternity due to "delinquence". I have to fax them copies of my cancelled checks, which means I had to order my cancelled checks from the bank, who said they should arrive in 3-5 days, problem with that is, 3 days from yesterday (the day I called) is Saturday and I was planning to leave on Friday for Thanksgiving Break and get as far away from here as is fucking possible. Pardon my French. I'm angry.

My databases class is supposed to be using Oracle to do our final project. Oracle is installed in the lab. It has been since September. This week, my classmates decided to get to work on their projects and discovered that Oracle, for some reason, does not work. This is obviously not my fault, but I get the sneaking suspicion that my disgruntled classmates are blaming it on me, since our professor has been asking me since day 1 if Oracle is installed and I've been saying Yes, yes it is. It's installed, I just don't fucking know how to use it.

The vice-president of CS Club told me yesterday that we missed the Student Association meeting where we were up for re-chartering. This was after all the shit from the bank yesterday that already had me in a bad mood. Again, this is not totally my fault, as there are four officers in the club and NONE of us have been checking the club mailbox OR going to the SA meetings. However, I'm the president so I'm supposed to be responsible for running things. Why the hell did I ever decide to be president of CS Club? It's never been my lifelong dream to be president of anything. In general I'm much happier just being a member. Responsibility sucks. So now I have to go to the Student Association meeting this afternoon and stand up in front of a hundred preppy popularity contest winners, none of whom I would ever actually associate with in real life, and convince them to renew the Computer Science Club's charter even though we are irresponsible and lazy.

This news caused me to skip Compiler for the second time this week, because I refuse to be ten or more minutes late to a Chan class.

I have needed a vacation for over a month and now that I'm finally getting one, it's bittersweet. Ryan and I have to write a compiler over the break, I have to finish a short story, and I've got this bitchy database project thing to do too. Plus I have a test each week (that's 3 tests in 3 weeks) in Compiler after I get back, a writing assignment and final to study for in Bible, and the final portfolio to finish for fiction. Oh and did I mention I still haven't applied for any jobs?? AAAAAAAAUUUGGGHHHHHH.
