Yesterday our modem got fried, which inevitably caused my router’s uplink port to get trashed.
I know, I know… do not use your computer during a thunderstorm/hailstorm and this would not happen.
Yeah? Well screw you.
I had homework to do.
Well, looks like I screwed up the whole blog at least three times a week thing again.
Let us be honest… who the hell really cares?
I have been busy marking up pages that would make any web developer worth have a grain of salt, cry. When I say cry, I mean weep with such sorrow as to possibly incite them to shoot me in the face.
Yet another atrocity that Kaplan has bestowed on me. Not for my benefit and surely not for my perusal, but forcefully shoved down my throat. What am I to do except conform and try to make the best of it?
Yeah, I have no clue either.
I know one thing though… Kaplan is *not* getting my money for a Bachelor’s degree.
Kaplan’s idiocy has yet again illustrated another moronic staff member. This time in the guise of a dean.
I got an e-mail today (boilerplate of course) welcoming me to another term at Kaplan.
Funny thing was, I was addressed as “Erick”. For a little over 27 years now, I was sure my name was Michael.
Go figure.
I just received a “President’s List Honors” in the mail presenting me with a certificate for attaining a GPA of 3.96 or higher in the February term.
Am I impressed… ? Not in the least.
Also, my bastard of an academic advisor never responded to my RSVP for the enrichment seminar so I missed it (because I did not have the call-in information).
I think I should start a whole new series of “Why Kaplan sucks” posts.
Hrmm… I just may do that.
At least… I hope it will be.
Tomorrow marks the start of my third term at Kaplan, and despite a multitude of horrible experiences thus far, I gotta’ say this seems kind of cool.
Tomorrow at 8PM EST we Information Systems and Technology students are invited to sit in on a phone enrichment seminar voiced by Peter Spande from CNET Networks and Jason Hiner from TechRepublic.
The topic will be “Real World IT: What IT Professionals are Talking about and Doing”.
It is giving me goosebumps already!
Well, hopefully this will turn out to be a redeeming point from a so far sinking ship.
Until then…
