A Is For Apathy | rainbowsandskeletons

Totally resenting and praising life at the same time tonight!

The bad news:

I HATE MY SCHOOL.

Number one, the counselors are as useful as piece of chewing gum stuck to the bottom of my shoe. I’ve been trying to change my schedule to get out of a few classes for two months now. Every time I even go in to see if someone’s available, they’re at a “meeting” or they’re “busy” with something else. How many meetings do you need to attend to learn how to not help someone? And how can they possibly be busy?! Busy with being lazy, doing nothing, Tweeting, etc? They’ve never once shown any kind of assistance to me other than to tell me to suck it up and get over it.

Like last Friday, the counselor (who finally found it in her oh-so-hectic schedule to spare me ten minutes of her life) told me that she was going to a meeting and would ask about me changing classes. So fine, I walked out of her office feeling satisfied and thought that everything would be worked out. WRONG. I go back to her Monday (she specifically told me to come in that day) and she then goes into her whole “Oh, no, the meeting’s Tuesday! You have the wrong day!” speech and nothing gets done. Okay, so that pissed me off. I know for a fact she told me to come in Monday because I wrote it down the second she told me.

Well, whatever. I thought, alright, no big deal. Fast forward to Tuesday and I’m back at her office again. But wait…the next day is just too convenient! She decides that she’ll just take a day off, no questions asked. No, it’s fine! Because I totally haven’t been stuck in a class I don’t need to be in for three months wasting my time with you being the only hope I have of getting out of it. Why don’t you just take the rest of the grading period off while you’re at it! >:|

I go there Wednesday and she finally decides to show up, but is she helpful in anyway?! OF COURSE NOT! That’d actually be doing her job! She says that the meeting was pushed to Thursday. Oh, that’s just super. Now not only can I not ask you tomorrow, but now I get to wait until Friday! That’s just great. Some people really need to get hit by a bus.

Okay, so speaking of Friday, it’s also where my personal hell (school) gets to come home with me!

I get to take one of these mechanical bastards over the weekend:

It’s RealCare baby and it’s just like a real baby. Oh, goody! Because I totally don’t already have a four-year-old running around the house like a banshee everyday, it’s completely obvious that I need one of these too! It laughs, it cries, it screams; it even pees. What would I possibly do without something so annoying interrupting my Halloween weekend? Fucking terrific.

Well, anywho, how do you like the layout? It’s kind of a Poltergeist meets Underoath kind of theme, so hope you enjoy it and it’s blueness.

ON TO THE GOOD NEWS:

My mom is back from Oklahoma, which I guess could be considered good and/or bad news depending on how you look at it. I’m counting it as good because she brought pictures!

More pictures here.

I’m also super excited because Powerman 5000 is playing here tomorrow! They opened for Flyleaf and Three Days Grace back in May, so I’m completely stoked to see them headlining. They’re kind of a weird band, but if you can get into them they’re actually pretty amazing. Join me, please! I do believe they’re at Emo’s this time, so make sure you come!

Other than that, here’s some pictures from random shows I’ve gone to this month:
