i shoud be spending this time finishing my poem so I can go to sleep and get some decent rest.
The instructor for my writing class really treats us like little shits. His criticisms are so condescending. Only assholes are sarcastic when workshopping someone's piece. None of us are writing majors, so he should try to be a little understanding. Only compassionate people should TA classes filled with non-majors, because, most likely, they are going to suck at the subject. None of us can write, so he shouldn't be such an ass, when we generally fail to write what we mean to say.
Unlike some professors I've had, I have a feeling this is more of a personality problem with him, than maliciousness.
*repeated complaint about my PI and his unrealistic expectations*
I went down to DC today to eat some awesome cuban food with my aunt who's visiting DC from cali. It was fun, it was free, it was not pasta or sandwiches. I had ropa vieja, but i really should have ordered the paella. man, banana cafe has some tasy paella. The flan was really good also.
Had a good conversation with coleman, my roommate. Its odd how satisfying those conversations can be. Especially considering how unfulfilling other conversations are that cover the same general topics. Sometimes, your history with someone is too long and nuances to really figure out ... especially the day after an all nighter, bleary eyed, and full of food.
praise the gods of UCSD, sacrifice your children ... or at least your young-adulthood.
