Downs, Ups, and Criss Crosses

So today was one of the most manic in the history of me.

It started with class. Same ole, same ole at first but when seminar came a shit bomb was dropped. I got my shitty essay in on time by the skin of my teeth. Then came announcements, there's always some radical SDS kids thats got to say something about something. Of course Evergreens favorite topic came up, the dead prez riot.

This girl made an announcement about 3 more people being arrested and marching and fund raising or whatever. Of shot random comments, "fucking rats" "snitches get stitches" My own professor asked something about RA's followed by other comments "the RA's are working with the cops."

Kid in the side ways hat, "we got any RA's in here" he looked around with a grin.

"yeah I'm an RA." I spoke up but didn't dig in. I was flustered I was broke.

After the seminars split up dance girl commented how she had the RA's backs and that they get treated like shit. I felt cared for, it was cool being stuck up for. Sideways Hat was silent.

My Prof was also grumpy and tries to give us a 6 page writing assignment. But what else would you expect from a radical political economy class, we went on strike. We negotiated for better terms.

I was on my way home and Riley called, needed my to cover until 5:30 for duty, I was cool with that, but then he calls and asks for more time. I was not cool with that. It was Friday, I had a shitty day and I did not want to be on duty, I refused to be on-duty passed 5:30. One of my bosses called and told me I wasn't stepping up or being a team player. She also wanted me to find someone to cover Riley's shift. Riley is one of my best friends, but this was bullshit, and my boss was giving me shit. It got resolved but not after I threw the RA phone to the ground. Then I flipped on Jai cause she skipped class and missed out on all the RA bashing.

The resident O called my Charlie Murphy, so I found him and hit him across the arm with my lightsaber, no big right? No he kicked me in the balls and said I was the worst RA ever. WTF?

Corbin and Riley proceeded to give me shit.

I went for a walk, found a soccer net. I tried to lay on it and look at the stars. Only my fat ass broke it and got tangled like a dolphin in a tuna net.

Most of the day sucked, but it was made up for with a fun night at the Reef with some great friends.
