The token assignment drama of semester. So, it was due 4pm today, I had placement at Leichhardt at 1pm. Partner, who's the "editor", sends me the "final" thing to submit in at 11 while I'm on the train. Run to SciTech, get on a computer at 11:45, realises that the "final" thing is nowhere near done. Everything was wrong with it--no intro or conclusion, a shit abstract, bad spelling and grammar, tables and figures not numbered correctly, style of referencing used inconsistent, messy reference list, no title page...basically, she lumped our contributions together and called that done.

Used my super awesome editing skills to polish it up (seriously no kidding, I'm a pretty good editor when needed), then realised SciTech has no colour printing (this was at 2pm, so I'm already late for placement). Run to Fisher, beg the Indian guy at the ACCESS centre to print off one colour page for me because I have no money on extro account (never use access centres) and promise to pay him in coins. The guy is awesome...prints for me, and says I can keep the change...WOOT FREE COLOUR PRINTING!

Run to pharmacy, realise the printing is out of line, so cross out the duplicated bits (running too late by this time), staple it, drop it in assigment box, run out to Footbridge bus stop...guess what, 437 comes immediately, and I end up at my pharmacy in Leichhardt at 2:30pm. That, and the Indian guy, saved my ass. I think some deity up there must be making things alright.

Fuck horrible partners are shit. To be fair, her Internet was down for the last week. But honestly, I should've picked a better partner at the beginning...she had a history of failing subjects and judging by what she turned in to me I'm not surprised why. And people who actually do well should learn to be on time for class so I can partner up with them instead of shit people who fail all the time.

/RANT

Hopefully no more dramas for this sem, but I have a very foreboding feeling there will be more....
maybe she knew that if she did shit, you'd fix it up for her to make sure you didn't both fail

she won the game

You know what, you're right. But I wasn't going to do nothing about it. I don't give a fuck about anyone else's marks, but I do care about my own. I'm not failing just because I got a shit partner. Argh uni. Thye obviously want to keep us in here as long as possible and wring more money out of us.

Who would've thought final year would be so hard? It should be the home run but it isn't...in fact, it's the hardest year of them all....

speaking of USU, when is the new building next to wentworth going to get some shops and not be a bleak depressing grey expanse? it looks like they've even given up on the coffee cart they had there for a few weeks.

I'm pretty sure someone (probably me) predicted that the Wentworth Building would continue to be the main building out of those two. I was right. Success!
