Chemistry
Chemistry is an interesting topic. Many people hate to have the fear of digging in through the molecular complexity of the compounds that go about to ensure our everyday life is in existence. I admit, chemistry is a difficult and dangerous field to study, but it can also be interesting. Mixing chemicals and watching reactions form due to compound combustions and heat and all that seems interesting and fun... yes it is, but there's so much more beyond the laboratory life of chemistry. The lectures that spur through an understanding of molecular compounds, elements, electron configurations, hybridizations, and all that I'm learning now seems annoying, but it is vert interesting. It takes more than mathematical and comprehensive interpretations to understand chemistry... it takes a mind that can think outside of the box in order to explain the idea inside it. Remember, CHEM-IS-TRY! Random thought of the day!

Student Health Services SUCK!
Okay, so our universities student health needs some serious training. They're ridiculous and everybody has a complaint about hat place. Whether it be all the infectious diseases floating around in that building or the fact that they can't file anything really throws off their credibility. Before coming to UVA, my mother and I made sure that I had received all of the necessary immunities in order to come to the school. My doctor, a very good friend of mine as well, signed all of my medical forms and faxed it in to UVA. I also sent it in because I did not want to have any conflicting issues later on.
But recently, my SIS account has been on hold because I have failed to submit my medical records? That is some BS seriously, I sent in everything that was needed. I called them and I told them to look through their files again, and they found it. Then... they resumed to say that my doctor did not sign it. Please, whatever. I have a copy of the records sitting in my room and I clearly explained to them I'm not dumb. Now, they want my doctor to fax in my records. This is really stupid of them.
They want me to walk over to student health and discuss the matter with them. No way am I doing that because I'm healthy and I don't want to walk away with a million strands of some sort of influenza. They can discuss it over the phone with me or come over to my dorm. If I'm ever dying, I told my mother that she'd have to pick me up from campus, take me back home, and take me to the doctors with better service. ANGER!
