When your school hopes you fail in life...

UGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!! There is nothing I (Kristen) currently hate more right now then the UNLV Advising center! It's like they WANT us to fail at life, or at least at the University. I am seriously so frustrated at the Greenspun College of Urban Affairs. My sob story began back in November when I tried to get an appointment for advice on what classes I should take. They made me wait almost a month to meet with an advisor. Then, as I drove down to UNLV to meet with this advisor (which isn't a short drive at all, mind you), they called and informed me that because they screwed up and scheduled my appointment on the day they closed for holiday break, they wouldn't be able to meet with me. Come on folks, call the day before! THEN, since their office was closed until this week, I talked to some lady on the phone who told me I would have to wait until next week, AFTER the semester started, to meet with an adviser. She suggested that I e-mail my class list to them and they could tell me if I'm on the right track. They have not replied yet. I'm tempted to drive down there and demand that someone meets with me, but that would be kind of rude, right?

I just hate being ignored, you know? Classes are already freakin' expensive and books are ridiculous, but to be blatenly ignored while you're doing your best to succeed isn't fair. I'm not a slacker, I got straight A's the past few semesters. I just need a little guidence, ya know?

Anyways...

Life is pretty dandy otherwise! I'm about to be 22, crazy, huh? Judd and I are going to go to St. George in a few days for a much needed mini-vacation!
