So back in March I was looking for apartments and found a nice apartment at a very reasonable price for the area with three guys living there. One guy (will now be known as Dude A) was moving out and I was to take over his room and put my name on the lease. No problem, everything going as planned. Now a few weeks later Dude A calls me up and tells me that the lease runs out at the end of May and will need to be renewed. He also tells me the guy in the master bedroom (Dude B), who pays the most, decides that the new rate that the management wants will be too much for him and he wants to move out too. However, Dude A assures me that the third guy in the smallest room (Dude C) will stay, or at the very least would be willing to share an apartment with me should we decide not to renew the current lease and find a new place. A little sketchy at this point, but at least with a second person I'm better off than trying to find a place by myself.
Dude A moves out and the following weekend (last weekend) I move the majority of my shit in. Turns out Dude A forgot to leave his key and security token so I have to pay for a new set which puts me out about $50, sure a bit annoying but not that big of a deal. Yesterday I get an email from Dude B saying it's almost time to renew the lease if that's what we're going to do so we should probably get our shit together and make a decision. Dude C responds that he believes that with the new rate he will be paying too much for the room he has, and he also has a possible job opportunity in a different state and wants to move out too. That's right, two days after I move the majority of my shit (including furniture) this guy decides he doesn't want to renew and will likely be leaving the state.
Fuck.
So this evening we're going to have a little chat to see if we can't get some of this resolved with out me getting fucked in the ass.
You can always go on craigslist and find new roommates, but yeah that sucks.
32% on my chem exam, beat that Ensign.
Can't wait to be done here, this is horseshit.
Well I know now why I had such bad stomach aches. My appendix was gonna go boom, just got it removed today and I am still in the hospital. All I can say is I hate IV's.

Are you in bed still, or have they forced you to walk on the complete floor of pain?

In bed still.
Edit: On the bright side I have wifi and my laptop, and I can play WoW to burn time.

My lowest was a 50, but it was a dropgrade. My second lowest was a 55.

[/quote]The first test I took sophomore year was Linear Circuit Analysis II, taught by the guy who wrote the textbook. I got a 36%. He spent twenty minutes berating the class for how stupid we all were, and telling us we should drop out of Electrical Engineering. I seriously almost cried. Then he told us the average was a 33%, so I ended up with a B+.

Problem is, we went into this test being told that this test typically had the highest average and therefore received no curve.
At this point I really don't care.

You on a 12-point scale?

See for me the 50 was a 50. No curving because Alfred Garafalo is an evil weather chemistry wizard who hates people.

No, we have a 4.0 GPA scale and percentages for averages. C's and D's get Degrees is my motto
