Procrastinating
I should be studying French right now but I am entirely unmotivated. I want to do fun stuff. But I can’t justify it. So I am randomly wasting little bits of time instead.
I found out why I haven’t herd back from Dr. Verkerk at UNC Chapel Hill yet… she is on leave for the term. So I guess the next thing is to actually call her at home (or wherever the phone number on her answering service says she can be reached) since she is the only person in the Art Dept. there that I actually have talked to… sigh. I really don’t want to. But I will work myself up to it this week.
So I found out why I don’t have my financial aid yet. I am registered for 8 credits, rather than 9. This changes my enrolment status from ¾ to ½ time. The financial aid office knows this – they told me that was why I hadn’t received my financial aid yet. They also said that I was still eligible for the same amount of aid. But I have to send in a revision request letting them know that I am taking 1 less credit so they can re-evaluate my loan and assign me the same amount of money, even thought *they* are the ones who let me know about my change in status and the money I will be eligible for… SIGH. I hate bureaucracy. They are so frikkin’ stupid. So no money for a few more weeks while the pointless red tape winds on… Not to mention that something is messed up with my computer and I can’t correctly read pdf’s on it so I couldn’t actually print out the revision form. Argh. Too much to do tomorrow. And we are doing a bronze pour in the evening, which while very neat means I will be up late, and it mean that I won’t be going climbing with Hanksan so he will be all moody and icky since he wants to climb every single week night. Considering this will only be the second day of class I have attended, I am determined not to feel guilty about not climbing. I already have too much stress and guilt on my plate.
