So, I'm sitting here, doing my minitab labs (that my teacher doesn't let us do during the lab; he'd rather lecture) and I look at the choice of printers. I see two choices at first: a dot matrix, and a $.50 a page color printer. $.50 seems a little steep for something that I don't even need color on. So, I look at the other choices, find a free one that's not dot-matrix, and print, but I don't see any printers printing. Damn. So I probably have that document printed somewhere else. Whoops, well, thats not the first time for me So, I find another printer thats $.10 a page. Better then $.50, but still, why the heck do I need to pay $.10 a page, just because this is the only lab that I know of with the minitab program that is open for non-class use. Meh, whatever, guess my thousands of dollars in tuition is going somewhere else, like adding the third crosswalk in 200 feet in the road that divides most of campus from the fine arts building. Well, I finish my first of three labs, talk to the lab assistant, get my page, pay my $.10, and I'm done. Then I do the second lab, go to the lab assistant and... crap, she's gone. So, I finish my last lab, and no one is here yet. I'm just sitting here on forums, with about 20 pages (bye bye two dollars ) in the printer queue, looking at a horrible monitor with burned in images that I can actually read, on a computer that can't do much more then internet (it crashed twice in minitab, I recall having lots of trouble with mathimatica as well).
Ho hum.
Ho hum.

awwww, yeh, I know how you feel. My teacher is sitting right behind me, and I'm supposed to be writing an english observation paper right now.
How I lothe the teachers that don't let you do stuff on your own time, thankfully, this is not one of those teachers. The only problem is, I tell myself I'll do it at home, but when I get home... I play Lusternia, and thus, I'm stuck in a never ending cycle.
Hope my parents don't find out.
*sigh* what I'd give to be in college right now, to be away from people breathing down my neck. *turns around* pah, teachers

I dunno. Every now and again someone breathing down my neck would be useful. I have done little or no work today, and I have some alarming deadlines tomorrow. Mainly that's because I'm still suffering from a hangover... but it's also because every time I've gone near a computer I've had to check that damn Magnagora thread. Anyway, I'm off early to bed now.. and I'm going to get up unfeasibly early tomorrow - hopefully with hangover gone. All should be fine........

Heh. Well, I know I'll be hurt for saying this, but am I glad I'm a Freshman in Hightschool! Everything's free exept food. 4 classes a day, making the day go by fast, and my teachers don't breathe down my neck, they let me go off and do whatever if I'm done my work!
