Grandoise

Which is what community colleges think they are. But they are not.

They are low budget, mediocre quality, fantastically convenient centers of learning.
You don't need SAT scores to get in.
100 % admission
Highest degree possible is an Associate's

Given that, why oh why is it so hard for me---a student enrolled in a university---to register for two classes during the summer? "State testing required." You've got to be kidding me. It's a calculus class and a government class. Why does the state need to test me? I've taken enough state tests to last me a life time. If not only that wretched TAKS test, but the math placements I took the summer before school started this year. I don't need state testing, and I don't want state testing. I can't even take it anyway, I'm too far away. I just want to go to school.
Get off your pedestal.
Rant over.

I don't think

I can do anything these days without mucking it up completely:
  • No, that's not right.
  • Oops, shouldn't have said that.
  • Why did I do it?
  • Why didn't I say that?
When did I become so graceless? Honestly.

Cheers
