snapdragon76There seems to be a strange ritual with my neighbors where they feel it necessary to have parties in their condo until the wee hours of the morning every weekend. They're a couple, I'd say in their early twenties or so, who invite their buddies over for a night of drinking and loud music. There may be food involved as well, I don't really know. During college football season, it's much worse. I guess I should be thankful they don't do it during the week, but every freakin' weekend? I think they have regular jobs they go too since both of them are gone for the majority of the day during the week and at least one of them goes to the local university.
Still, I don't suppose it would be prudent of them to maybe rotate houses for this weekly ritual of theirs. I mean, this is literally every. weekend. It's especially bad for me since my bedroom window faces their porch, where the guys (it's usually the guys) go out and shoot the breeze while talking loudly and drinking beer (it's mostly beer).
I officially registered for my classes on Thursday, only to come across yet ANOTHER road block. It seems one cannot register for the full nine hours of coursework one needs to be qualified for a GA position unless all their immunizations are up to date. Well, guess what? I can't seem to find the records of my immunizations (specifically my MMR)! I had boosters done in '99 before entering undergrad, but when we contacted the school, they only had the Measles and Rubella, not the Mumps one. Now, I'm preeeeeetty sure I had all the immunizations done, so why my Mumps one isn't in there, is a mystery. And of course, the university only hold records for seven years.
So, now I have to try and find ANY sort of documentation to prove I did have my immunizations done, or go to the student health clinic and get a Titer (I think), which is related to a Mumps booster I believe. That takes three to five days to get results since it has to be sent to an off campus lab for results. My mind is a little fuzzy on the specifics of it. In any event, I need to get this done in the next week or so so that I can get the results in my records by the time classes start, so that I can register for my final class AND be eligible for the GA position I interviewed for on Tuesday.
Speaking of which, it went really well, I thought. The lady interviewing me was very nice and personable and she seemed to like me. She told me the job would basically be me inputting stuff into the computer for her that she's not always able to do herself since she's out of her office a lot doing student teacher evaluations. And I'd be helping her organize things as well as make presentations and help her try to figure out how to use her iPad. I don't have an iPad, but since I have an iPhone and the OS is pretty much the same, I can figure it out.
So, I have to wait and hear back from the person in charge of the hiring to see if I officially get the position or not. I'd also mostly likely be shared with another professor since they tend to split duties between various Ga's. Not a problem. Although I would have to get up and drop mom off at work since we're currently sharing one car. Hopefully we can figure out what the deal is with mom's car so that we can both have our own vehicles back for us to use and can come and go as we please.
