<p>vent here!</p>

<p>So for my 2 summer classes:
-i got a 86 and 83 on 2 out of 3 exams in accounting right now, my shot at getting an A is low, have to get almost 100 on next exam and final
-and then I got an 80 on the 1st out of 3 exams today in econ (pre-req) so my shots at an A are screwed :( id have to get almost 95 on both exams and final</p>

<p>and since my cum gpa is 3.45 (i have 1 year left) anything below an A kills my transfer chances to anywhere as I need to bring it up to a 3.7; awesome.</p>

<p>i study 3 hrs a day, i dont get how i get such low scores. bleh, /me waves to ucla and usc sailing away</p>

<p>It's summer and I'm loafing my ass off, so the only thing I have to vent is the pizza delivery being 10 mins late...</p>

3

<p>I had just finished getting my college expenses planned out perfectly, down to a dime, only to receive a speeding ticket in the mail for $761 dollars.</p>

<p>****.</p>

4

<p>I also got a speeding ticket as well, I am working full time and my paychecks are going to my traffic violations...
I need a vacation, a woman and a woman that will travel with me :D</p>

5

<p>im in the study lab at my CC trying to work on my calc hw, distracted obviously. cant wait for batman! but i need a B!
78 on the first exam, 3 left.</p>

6

<p>rshaan aren't you going to get rescinded for a D in Spring?</p>

7

<p>im gonna see batman tonight too</p>

<p>after i got my 80 on my econ test today i couldnt pay attention to the lecture, i was so mad >:|</p>

<p>damn lots of u guys got tickets, stop speeding! i know u guys dont drive 400hp+ cars! my friend got a misdomeaner last week for chirping the tires at a light in his camaro (not even racin or anything), hella weak</p>

<p>@TrEbOr -- UCLA has a heart and gave me a second chance :) just need a B this summer. </p>

<p>batman was ****ing amazin, btw</p>

<p>rshaan, glad you didn't get rescinded. That probably would've been pretty harsh of UCLA anyway to rescind someone for one bad grade. </p>

<p>As for venting, I'm really ticked off that I'm restricted to taking just two classes this summer when I feel I can handle more. The only way I can take more classes is if I get approval from my high school counselor, but she isn't at school during the summer. The CC counselor refuses to let me take any classes without counselor approval first. I hate being babied around like this.</p>

<p>i would vent but I'm in bangalore, india right now so if I breathe in too deeply I might instantly die of lung cancer (lulz)</p>

<p>other than that cal is sending me mixed messages about when they want my CC transcripts. the rep + my agreement say jan 23rd since I'm a spring admit, but myberkeleyapp is saying I'm late on them.</p>

11

<p>I'm annoyed because I'm a poli sci major and I got shut out of all my classes. Even the two lower division ones that I need to complete before I hit 135 units.</p>

<p>I also got shut out of the two allied fields I had chosen.</p>

<p>I also got shut out of the classes I need for the minor I had intended to take.</p>

<p>I also got shut out of the pre-reqs for the classes I want to take later this year.</p>

12

<p>I'm liquidating the small DVD and modest book collections I have accumulated over the years in preparation for my move. Family Guy, Vol 1 netted me about $17 on amazon from some guy in Colorado, but I just got a torn piece of the mail packaging returned along with a form to fill out to make a claim. /shakes fist</p>

<p>More venting:</p>

<p>BioWare announced at E3 yesterday that they are indeed working on the long rumored Knights of the Old Republic MMO. Given their track record, it will likely be a Star Wars MMO that actually lives up to what the Stars Wars universe is capable of (unlike the abomination Galaxies turned into).</p>

<p>Why am I venting about this? Because it has a scheduled release date of 2009...which is clearly when I'll still be an undergrad at Cal, thus potentially pwning my grades (not really, but still).</p>

<p>Hey BioWare, can you push it back a little to June 2010 where I'll have my BA in hand and will merely be working one of those "very bad jobs" Cal grads get that I Love School just made a thread about (<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/uc-transfers/539561-top-graduates.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/uc-transfers/539561-top-graduates.html&lt;/a&gt;) ?</p>

15

<p>Really UCLA gave you an additional chance at their Biz/Econ major?</p>

<p>You must have made quite an impression on your apps ;o.</p>

16

<p>vent vent vent.... vent vent. one more week of summer classes.... then i'm backpacking europe till I move into ihouse on the 21st of August. so i guess everything is good, i'm just not in the best moooood....serving at applebees can be the pits. but spain will be awesome.</p>

17

<p>That sounds awesome. I actually wanna do that sometime, hopefully the summer before I start college. What's your budget for the trip?</p>

18

<p>You're staying at Ihouse, too? I wonder how many CCers opted for that option.</p>

19

<p>Halo Wars and Gears of War 2 come out right on top of school. Oh, the humanity! and all that...</p>

<br>


<br>

<p>Also, I have to petition the English Department at UCLA for two little red tape issues that really should be no problem in the first place. But still, waste of time.</p>

<p>On a brighter note I hung out with the head developers of Rock Band at a rooftop bar in downtown LA and got their E-Mail stating that I had "great ideas" and should "share them with them" WIN!</p>
