Hey all,

Ok, I know I started the thread about "What do you like about school", BUT now I have to say what I absolutely hate about it.

I go to UofMichigan and if any of you didn't know, there's oh about 37,000 people there--undergrad and grad. So it's quite packed!

Today was my first day back. Oh my gosh, let me just say that I CAN'T WAIT to graduate! I'm so glad this is my last semester.
The campus was just overflowing w/ people. All the bookstores had the hugest lines possible. It almost seems like there's 10,000 extra people here this year. It's never been so packed before. Or maybe I was just obvilious to all this. I don't know.

Anyway, I am fortunate enough to have a car on campus. Driving in Ann Arbor during the summer--cool. Driving in Ann Arbor during the school year--HORRENDOUS(sp?)!!!! Oh my goodness! Ever been stuck in traffic cuz a HUGE group of students are crossing the street and they don't give a rat's a** about you in your car? It was just awful.

Then class...goodness. Both classes I had today were filled to the brim. They were packed to the point where people were sitting on the steps of the auditorium! Man, I got used to the summer and having NO one around. Now, there's about half our stadium on campus and it's so overwhelming. And why did I have a class and the prof is telling us about this final project thing that will require AT LEAST 60 hours of work! I just wanted to cry. But I didn't. I just said "oh well, looks like I'll be dropping THIS class!" I'm a Senior, graduating in December. Does he really expect me to do all that work? Puh-leeezzze!

The funny thing about this? I'm going into my 5th year...you'd think I'd be used to this by now!
