Catch up and University questions

Hey everyone...

So again... it's been a few days, and I've been busy. Seems to be my life story. BUT - in exactly 15 days I will be done school for almost a month. I'm SO looking forward to that time to catch up on some reading, catch up with some friends (I STILL LOVE YOU I PROMISE!!) and just relax. I have a CSI essay to write before next Tuesday, an annotated history bibliography due next Wednesday, and an exam to study for. Meh, it's not bad.

Work has changed SO much. It's pretty crazy. Of the associates (the low people :P) there are only about 5 of us left that were there last Christmas. And we just hired about 10+ new people, so no one knows what they're doing, and that means that all of us oldies have to do twice as work most of the time. Which, I must admit isn't much fun. It's also not much fun that none of us get any credit for it. But hey, that's retail for you. I can't imagine working in retail my whole life. I really really admire people who've been there for so long because I've been there for a little over a year and I'm already getting frustrated with it. But hey, all in all it's a really good job. The hours are completely flexible and I can work it really well around my schedule. So really, I shouldn't complain.

BUT - one thing I've noticed over my 3 months at University, is that apparently, I'm a fast walker. I had got the impression of this before (ahem, Sarah) but it had never seemed like a big deal. But now, I'm always stuck behind some group of 3+ people (or just a really really slow person) taking up the sidewalk. Lol. Again, not a big deal, but a rather interesting observation. I'm hoping I'm not the only one who gets annoyed with these slow walkers who take up the whole sidewalk, but hey, it's happened before so who knows?

One more quick note to mention. Why is it that people talk in class when they have absolutely no idea what they're talking about? I mean, I'm the type of person who rarely talks in class. I'm shy, and I don't like to be wrong. SO - unless I'm about 110% sure I'm right, I'm not going to put up my hand. But then there are random people who go on for minutes about stuff that either doesn't relate to the class or that isn't right. This happens countless times, and the best times are when the prof essentially tells the people to shut it. For example:

AG (annoying guy who does this ALL the time in Psych)
P (Psych Prof)

P: So what does everyone think?
AG: Well, I think that this is true because..... blah blah blah (takes a good minute or two to develop his point - which he didn't really make)
P: And why do you think that? (looking quite complexed)
AG: I don't know...just because.
P: Can I say you're wrong..... just because?

*laughter*

I mean..... WHY?

Oh well. Who knows. I don't understand University. It's where everyone seems to pretend its different than highschool but in reality, it doesn't seem that much different. You've still got the clicky girls who spend more time on their makeup in the morning than time studying, still got the whole guy-girl drama... I mean seriously? Does it change at all in further years?
