If you're taking an online/hybrid class and you're using Blackboard to submit assignments, don't click "Save Draft". Apparently, there's a bug with Blackboard. I typed my assignment on Blackboard then clicked "Save Draft" and from then onwards, it was hell. Later on, I finally submitted the assignment (on time) but my teacher couldn't see my submission at all. Long story short, my post must have "vanished" into the ether.
Out of curiosity, I googled "Blackboard save draft problem" and found out that I'm not the only person having this problem. Several university websites discourage students from using the "Save draft" option; instead, students type up their work on an external text editor, then copy and paste and hit submit.

Okay... I was supposed to work 12-3 today. I thought I was on for 3-6. I had checked the schedule at work but I forgot to write it down. I called and called yesterday but no one answered. Now my manager just called me -_______- Greeeaaattttt, great! I hope this doesn't hurt my chances of getting more hours 
I knew this was going to happen. ****ing hell. Now I have to scramble and get ready and be there like an hour late or more. Uuuuuggghhhhhhh

I'm sorry.
I don't feel too comfortable with how technology is advancing into a brain reading direction.
I don't want people to know what I'm thinking.. It'll be the end of me. There's enough people that don't like me for the little bit I relay through my mouth, let alone revealing all of it.
It's not in that state yet, or won't be soon anyway, but still.. it scares me.

^ouch!:sad:
I got stabbed in the finger with the needle part of this pricing gun today. Have worked with one for a long time, but it's the deepest puncture I've done. I guess after you have handled something for so long you tend to become less cautious with it.:kickingmyself:
There are so many different combinations of personality traits in each person, not to mention the unique quirks and random habits each combination has due to their own individual upbringing and environment. How are we supposed to learn how to deal with all of them?:idontknow:
This is true. Except I work with fractious cats. Gonna get my face ripped off one of these days. :ironicsmile:

i can't count the number of times i've impaled myself on one of those :crying:
even after training all the new employees every year how NOT to hurt themselves
that's what keeps life interesting - meeting new people all the time and figuring out how to interact with them, then seeing what develops
it's like christmas everyday :thumbup:

Sat next to the girl I fancy (well, there was a seat between us, which was eventually occupied) in the first class today. I never really talked to her, though I think she has noticed that I'm interested in her (sometimes she seems interested too, but I don't really understand women anyway).
Didn't sit next to her because my digestive system wakes up at that time of the day and sitting right next to her would make my entire digestive system do weird sounds every now and then because I'd be extremely nervous (it can be anything, air in stomach, bowel movements, etc). In fact, I was really nervous just sitting there and I started feeling nauseous, until that seat between us was taken.
It could have probably been avoided if I had taken a med I usually take before classes so I don't get nervous (it's a really small dose but it's enough), in that case I would probably even sit right next to her. I take other precautions to avoid my stomach from growling (just need to throw something solid in there every hour or so, hungry or not). Can't really do anything about the rest of the digestive system.
I feel like I'm embarrassing myself in front of her and sending mixed signals, or maybe I look too socially awkward or something.
I hate my digestive system.

I should try to approach her in a different situation. I'm just feeling bad because it was such a perfect opportunity and I had to let it slip through my fingers.

Three cups of coffee, and I still can't stay awake. Why am I always so goddamn tired? :kickingmyself:

Me too! I've been so lethargic this past week. I feel like there's a magnet on my bed drawing me down to lay. I fell asleep a few times during the evening for a couple hours....strange.

Are you getting enough iron in your diet?
Not enough iron always makes my normal level of being tired most of the time turn into almost falling asleep most of the time.
Does it cost a lot of money to get a blood test to check your iron level, in your country?:thinking:
