Venting time

Heads up there's a little bit of anger in this post, but that's why I made this blog in the first place, so that I could share thoughts that I can't say out loud. So this is just a little venting for the day and I'll do it in categories.

Parking at BYU

parking at this university is hell, there is no other way to put it, I got to campus 10 minutes before my class today, I know, that's pretty close, but it doesn't matter because it took me 40 minutes to find a parking spot. That's ridiculous. I have a pass to any spot on campus and it took me 40 minutes. What a joke, the thing that bothers me the most is that I watched several people with liberty square stickers, and university villas parking stickers parking their cars. In my opinion the university should not give anyone parking stickers if they live within 1 mile of campus. They can walk. There are students like me who HAVE to drive 30 minutes to get to school, i don't really have a choice but i can't park because some student who lives a few blocks from campus is to lazy to walk to school. if you're one of those students, I hate you right now.

I finally found a parking spot, it was to late to go to my first class, so instead i missed it and now i'm writing this post

College students

I'm so sick of hearing students tell me how busy they are because they are taking 15 credits and that's just so much. I ask them if they are working a job and most of the time they aren't, and if they are they are working like 10 hours on campus. I ask them how they are affording school and they tell me they work during the summer and once they run out of that money their parents have given them a credit card so they don't have to work a lot during school. That's retarded, I have had a job every day of my life since 1 month before I turned 15, I work 30 hours a week currently and my job is 40 minutes from campus. I'm starting a second job right now, and I'm also taking 15.5 credits, so i'm kinda tired of people telling me how crazy their life is because they have to manage 15 credits and......a social life? what's a social life?

I know I just spent a whole paragraph complaining but i don't think i'm better than them, in fact I don't think it's even really their faults. I blame it on the parents. By raising a generation of college students who don't work and think that money is just alway going to be there when they need it they are doing a huge disservice to our community. And sadly these students will get married and have kids and in 18 years there will be even more students who are living the same way.

I don't have a solution other than parents need to stop it.

Hipsters/preppies

Hipsters, let's get real, your not original you're just pulling fashions from the past, and there are so many of you that it's not original anymore, so in reality you are conforming just as much as the rest of us, you are just conforming to the wrong decade

Preppies, put on a t-shirt and some jeans, instead of your shirts and ties, your a college student not a freaking CEO. I get it, you're studying business, but you aren't graduated yet, you're still a normal student.

I really shouldn't be mad at the way they dress because that isn't the problem it's the attitude they have, and both genres have a sense of letting everyone know that they are better than everyone else.

Last 2 weeks of the semester

The countdown is on, this semester is almost over. I feel like I have so much to do, so many final group projects which means...... I have a new best friend

This stuff is the best, it tastes like orange/pineapple soda. I drank one last night around 12:30 because I had a lot to do. Unfortunately this stuff is like aderall to me, so I was able to focus super well and I was able to finish a lot of my work by 2:00. Problem, I was ready to go to bed but my newly energized body was not. So I tossed and turned until I finally submitted and took 2 all natural sleeping pills. Probably not the best thing I could do to my body but I needed to sleep.

I woke up around 7:30 and got ready for school, I've been here since 8:30 and it's not looking like I will be leaving till around 10:00 or 11:00 tonight, then I have a 5 page paper to write. which means another date with my new friend.

I love the last two weeks of the semester......NOT

Ski season can't come soon enough (4 days away)
