Frustration! And more frustration.

Things that should not be difficult but are: registering for school. This is, apparently, a week-long process of bureaucracy, e-mails, and requests.

On the plus side, I might be arranging my own independent study for a credit. Once I can figure out how.

Hee, yup! My entire tuition for this coming school year is approximately $6600. At the community college I had attended, I was only paying about two grand per year. It was pretty nice.

Well, I am a labour studies student! What was your school's program selection like?

I went to a community college myself. ($4k for out of state, $2k for in-state.) So I can't speak to the normal college experience. But I feel like, labor studies probably doesn't much exist over here as a major.

I was given an option to join a union when I first moved here but a few months ago a memo went out that, if I understood it correctly, was terminating all unioned employees for no reason.

I wanted to join the union, but I was nervous about it, because this country is very anti-union. :(

That's what I'm here! SUPER JES, DEFENDER OF UNIONS EVERYWHERE.

I love labour studies, though. I was personally encouraged by a professor to switch into it and I'm very glad I did. You think your country is anti-union, people get killed in South America for being part of union activities. It's saddening.

:( That sounds awesome.

(Except the second thing you said.)

What are you going to be when you are a grownup Jes?
