I need to vent!!

I'm so damn mad at my school right now, it's fucking bullshit because being in graduate school they know they have all this damn power over you and there's nothing you can fucking do.

So, let me start in the middle. Brent didn't get any NWT spots, he is stuck in southern Cali next year. The first totally fucked up thing is that they didn't even release the spots in Corvallis that should have been given to the SoCal kids to choose from (there were 6 that should have been made available). So, there were only 2 actually decent spots in Tacoma and Salem, but of course the people who DID get NWT from SoCal didn't want to switch. BUT then a girl from the NWT who got Portland, offered to switch with Brent. This should work, yeah? I mean, it's an easy swap. Well, that's the second fucked up thing, they said no, this wasn't possible. We met with one Dean a month or so ago who said that if Brent got in the NW and it wasn't near my spot, we could try to switch me around to get near him. But, since he didn't even get a spot, we decided to ask someone higher up if he could completely switch with this girl in Portland. Not only did we get a No from one Dean, but another angry message from the other Dean. (yes, it's so complicated). Sooo, now we are stuck in the middle of political bullshit. I'm over the fact that we aren't gonna be even close to each other next year, now I'm just pissed at the school for being such assholes. Of course Brent sent both Deans emails back just saying that his main concern is to be with me next year and didn't mean to upset anyone, but it's still all messed up. I don't really understand what happened with my school. Last year everything was great, there was none of this higher power bureaucracy, but this year has just been a shit show.

Urrrgghhh. On a happier note, I only have one test left of the semester and then I'm heading back to PDX on the 19th!! Yay, so stoked!

Okay, back to studying. Hope to hear from you girls soon!!
