The New Facebook Sucks

I hate the new setup for Facebook. It sucks! Why did they even bother changing it? The previous layout was much simpler and user friendly. This one is more cluttered, disorganized and they have a lot of bugs to fix. I get more error pages than I properly loaded ones and the pages take longer to load on my account than other people’s for some reason (I tested it out with Jack’s). Seriously, it’s annoying!

My other rant is about the Medical Facility we have on campus. Well I had a doctor’s appointment a while ago about my medication and they gave me a call a week ago (at 8am!) wanting to schedule a follow-up appointment. Seriously, who calls a student at 8am? Fucktards. So I made an appointment (yesterday at 9:30) and I had to drive to Waterloo since I’ve moved home. So I left at 8am which should give me about an extra half hour. Well with morning traffic, getting stuck behind a slow moving truck on a one-lane road, and later being stuck in a traffic jam on the highway due to construction, I was cutting it close. So while I’m stuck in a traffic jam I call the office at 9:20 to let them know that I will be about 10 minutes late. Well they tell me that if I miss the appointment then they can’t do anything about it. I also had to pick up my medical files since I’m graduating so she told me I could just see the nurse for that without an appointment. Good since I would have been pissed that I drove all that way for nothing. So I get out of the traffic jam, park illegally on campus and run to the office only two minutes late and the receptionist tells me that I didn’t make my appointment. STUPID! So she tells me to take a seat and the nurse will see me shortly to give me my files. Ok, well the nurse comes, takes me to a room and leaves me there for five minutes before my doctor comes in for the follow-up. Umm…wtf? Apparently all they wanted to know was if my medication worked. It did. And that was the end of the check-up. Honestly, it did not even take two minutes. Useless twits! At least I got my files. =/

In other news, I have handed in my paper and I will be defending it next Tuesday. I hope it does well. I can either get a fail (doubt it), pass with major revisions, or a pass with minor revisions. I’m hoping for the minor revisions so that I can finish this paper and be done with it! I also have a list of people who want to read this paper. I’m a bit nervous about that. It’s one thing to have your paper read by other academics who are used to reading case studies, but those who aren’t trained to take things less personally sometimes overreact to observations that they see as normal but are being critiqued by an outsider. So…hopefully that goes over well. I can’t wait to graduate!
