Nearly a year ago today, I wrote a small blog about mid-terms. I'm currently in the midst of these tests. It's not so bad this year. However, once again, it has forced me to bring up the issue of parking.
Unbeknownst to me previously, mid-term tests have the magical capability of luring people who haven't attended class so far, back to class to take incredibly hard tests. It's almost a joke. Every mid-term is the same. The two weeks leading up to mid-terms, the parking is fantastic because a lot of people stop coming to class due to dropping out. But the week of mid-terms, people start coming back to take the tests out of fear that they may somehow fail the class. Where the fuck is the logic in that? You're not coming to class, taking notes, turning in assignments and other stuff class requires you to do. Yet, when you hear that a test that is worth 20-50% of your grade is coming, you suddenly decide to show up, study and take the test with some sort of vague hopes that it will prevent you from utter failure? Am I crazy or does that sound incredibly stupid? I feel like these people know something that I don't. Can they really cram for a mid-term for a class they have not otherwise participated in and still somehow earn a passing grade? If so, how?
My point is, the days of getting an awesome parking spot close to the school are over for about a week. All because dumbass jack-offs feel compelled to study at the last second in a library they hardly respect. I want my good parking spot back! Walking a little further to get to classes and the library is simply too much to ask from me at this point. I'm stressed out as it is. Getting a shitty parking spot due to these assholes is enough to almost throw me over the edge.
Ok. Rant over.
For now.
