Quixotic and Absurd!

Month

September 2010

The first two days of classes...

Class one- Prof has a B.A. He’s probably 30, max. He’s done a lot and knows a lot about his subject, but he seems to think he knows everything and attempts to correct everyone’s “erroneous” thoughts about life… because clearly someone who doesn’t even have a master’s degree knows everything. I trust his knowledge of the subject. I do not like him as a person.

Class two- I hate this class. I’m supposed to love it. Everything about this class is everything that’s interesting to me. The prof is a nice guy, the TA is knowledgeable, the subject matter I enjoy. Too bad some retard adviser stuck an entire freshmen learning community in the class. As a result, the prof decided to “dumb down” the material feeling sympathy for all the kids right out of highschool. Our grades are based on: 5 papers (200 words each!!! OMG Like… Two Hundred words is so many that I like……can’t even state my argument in 2 paragraphs……..), 5 tests (5 questions each. FML, that’s probably gonna be harder than an O Chem test, not.), 1 three minute presentation (but “since there’s so many kids in the class, if we don’t make the 3 minute mark, it’s ok” umm…I could stand up there and say Hi. My name is Rachel and I’m a SENIOR! and hit the 3 minute mark), 1 final paper 1000 words (“it’s four pages.” ….double spaced….). I feel dumber just sitting with the kids.

Class Three- Knew the prof before, class should be easy and boring, but required. Classroom, no empty seats… 300 degrees… No open windows…

Class Four- Interesting material, Cute little old prof with a nose like she fell out of Whoville. Seems like it should be fine. Ordered the text book over a week ago, estimated ship date: Sept 17th. Delightful. Also, all the kids in that class put my extracurriculars to shame. I feel lame.

Class Five- Self-Paced Honors Thesis. FML. Right now. FML….

When is graduation again???

Cardio Dance Blast

In my head, I’m a super awesome dancer…

In real life, I dance like fail.

So, you can bet that the day I decided to try a cardio dance work out tape, was a good day. Here is a sample of my evening:

So, the woman in the tape is all peppy and make-up covered, wearing a neon sports bra surrounded by her work-out gal pals. I’m standing in my living room in my underwear. She starts out easy, with marching. Awesome! I’m super at marching. I was almost in marching band in high-school. Anyways, I’m fucking owning the marching, and she decides it’s time to start the dancing. Great! I’m a super awesome dancer!!

Exercise Dancing Inhuman Robot Chick: Ok, this dance is kinda fast, so we’re gonna do it half time to teach you!
Me: Awesome!
EDIRC: Ready?
Me: Sure
EDIRC: Ok! You right step, cross, step, cross.
Me: Doesn’t seem to hard!
EDIRC: Got it!?
Me: No!
EDIRC: Good!
Me: I SAID NO!
EDIRC: Now we’ll add the arms! Up, and circle! Up, and circle!
Me: But, I still can’t cross right!!!!
EDIRC: You’re doing great!
Me: Really?
EDIRC: Shake that booty!
Me: But then the cross is legit impossible! And NO, my ARMS STILL AREN’T CIRCLING!!!!
EDIRC: And now we’ll bring it up to tempo! Ok!
Me: Oh, fml. Can we go back to marching now?

In conclusion, who would like to buy me a personal trainer? :-D

Dear PITT Freshmen Class of 2014,

Please learn how to move in your stuff in an orderly and timely manner, and learn it quickly. You’ve been here for 2 days, and I’ve had enough of you. If you think your puppy friend HAS to be there to help you move, or your mini-skirt just isn’t SHORT enough, or you’re too DAINTY to push your cart up the hill, or the 80 degree weather isn’t too hot for your SNOW BOOTS, then you have got a lot to learn. Oh, and your ID card necklaces, not cute.

There is a chaotic order here in Oakland, a natural balance of sorts, and you’re throwing it out of whack. I hate you. We’re not friends. Please, go back to high-school until you’ve found some sort of intelligence. And take your teary-eyed parents with you.

Sincerely,

Me

PS- Why is it that when I search tumblr for PITT and freshmen related topics I get a shitton of OMG!!!!!!!!!! THE CATHEDRAL IS LIKE HOGWARTS!!!!!!!!!!! I’M GOING TO FUCKING HOGWARTS FOR COLLEGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ? So. Lame.

I ate an entire box of Kraft Mac & Cheese for dinner.

This is why I’m fat.
