I might be getting sick of this crap.
Oct. 20th, 2009 07:47 pmToday after I ate lunch I went over to the literature building! They were, thankfully, open. So I went up to the woman working the front desk and asked if I could make an appointment. "Oh," she replied, "we don't make appointments anymore. We just do walk-ins."
I took on that look where my mouth is smiling but my eyes really aren't, and as I tried to convince myself not to respond with, "But, um, your sign out front that I just read states that you make appointments. I guess ALL of your signs lie," she continued to say, "So do you just want to walk in now?" And I was like, "...Yes. Please."
So then I went into an adviser's office, and first I had to wait for her to finish whatever she was doing, and then I told her I wanted to change my major, and then she went through my file, and then she was like, "Okay, cool, looks like everything is order! So you just have to change it on [our school website], and they'll get back to you!"
So, basically, I didn't even need to go in or talk to anyone or sign any papers.
BASICALLY, I COULD HAVE DONE THIS BACK IN JUNE.
Anyway, I submitted it for review, so someone should email me sooner or later and be like, "'k cool you are a writing major." Hopefully they'll say that, at least.
In other news, I forgot to mention this yesterday, but the guy working the internship desk at the time? Recognized me. Apparently we had nonfiction class together last year. I vaguely remembered him after he said this (we didn't have section together, and there were 90 people in the class, so). It's just so weird that people keep recognizing me when I've never spoken to them before.
