August 21, 2003
and so it begins

Well, today was supposed to be my first day of classes, starting at 8:00 a.m. But the powers that be decided that they wouldn't allow my seamless transition from summer time work to fall term school. So I was magically dropped from all my classes yesterday, unbeknownst to me. So when I finally found out at 10:30 last night through e-mail (DTFU: level 1 inductee) There was nothing I could do about it. Thus instead of going to all my classes today, starting the semester off right, I was running all over campus trying to figure out what the hell they did to screw me over.

After hours of line standing, wrong window meet, I'm not the person to talk to greeting, I still don't know why I was dis-enrolled. And apparently neither does anybody else on this god-forsaken campus.

So here I go again braving the waters of this momument to inefficiency they call a university, in a vain attempt to pursue some semblance of respect in the form of an overpriced piece of paper.

mmm...bureaucracy

MOST UPDATEDLYNESS UPDATE: Victory is mine...sort of. I explain in depth later but suffice to say, I finally got it all staightened out and I've be re-enrolled in my classes, except for circuits because it's full. But soon even that will be remedied...now where did I put that vile of strychnine?

Dude, that SUCKS.

Wow, they didn't drop me. They just wanted me to remain homeless one extra night. Probably one of those character building exercises or something.

This year CBC decided to get with the rest of the world and make registering online the one and only way to register..... except the server isn't big enough for all of the students who are registering. I have been trying to register for three days to no avail.

Sounds like what happened to my roommate. They wouldn't let him transfer from HCC because his GPA wasn't a 2.0 (it was a 1.96 or something like that). He petitioned and got it, but they wouldn't let him enroll until the first day of classes, and then they charged him a late enrollment fee.
