Otal: No, coop. Cooperative education employment. Paid internship working in my field of study required for me to graduate. Perhaps the abbreviation would be clearer if I hyphenated, but I don't think it's that big a deal if one knows what I'm talking about. And now you do!

[Deepsycher]

That’s a point, for one situation how can it be called Cooperative education employment if no company wants to cooperate?

For me I still have a long way to go and possibly to argue with many incompetent people who force their patronising opinions in the way. To make me a cost effective asset like before and to regress me for their idea of the "mass majority".

Due to the slowness I think that everything is coming to an end for me.

Going to be another boring week for me and no other people to speak to as much.

I won my bids on Ebay for equipment that I need but I hate bidding when I have no choice:

Money doesn't always consider who needs something the most unless the very desperate are willing to go in debt with possibly an over priced item.

I think that bidding is not fair for most things.

I was busy all day and yesterday with so much of stoppages and frustration from something that was mean't to be simple:

(1) Having to sacrifice and swap an expensive new power supply of mine.

Just because the other one never came with a 12 volt 4 pin molex plug or adapter which the board needed to work. Fortunately the board that it was swapped on didn't have a 12 volt 4 pin molex input connector.

(2) I don't have the right back piece to fit as the board was second hand. If I ask the buyer and even if I do receive it I'll have to redo most of my work again! Now I worry that some metal object can get inside the gap. I went out and the shops as typical don't stock those parts not even earlier standard ones.

(3) I have to go back to a shop to return a decorated piece of junk usb hub with a shoddy lead that came with it. I am so disappointed that I made that mistake.

(4) I feel exhausted from the struggling experience. If the conditions were ideal it could have been done in a couple of hours without frustration. I always have to go long and unrealistic ways.

(5) Can't express myself comfortably to people I don't trust here. No where to go private and that would make me feel like I discriminate.

Slade: you could probably also put a little umlaut over the second o. and that was pretty obnoxious of them to lead you on like that.

I still feel the pain of violently bashing my shoulder severly up the stairs on a large wooden post from yesterday as a result of running too fast. It made me feel dizzy with a weak loss of blood in my shoulder area at the same time of expressing in loud noises. I have never bashed my shoulder like that before up the stairs.

Complaint: Working four jobs = a 60 -70 hour work week. Oh sure, I'm making some really good money, and I'll definately be able to pay for school, but I'm slowly falling to pieces. I usually work ten or more hours a day every day, six or seven days a week. Even when I have a day off, I end up doing some kind of work. I cannot wait until school starts (I can't believe I'm actually saying that and meaning it like nothing else I've ever said). Only a little more than a month left thank God.

edit: Oh, and the less then five hours of sleep a night every night except for two nights ago (a sweet merciful eight houre) isn't helping matters either.

I've been hearing a noise in my right ear that sounds vaguely like bagpipes. It's really f*cking irritating.

[Zatoichi]

Bagpipes in your right ear you say hmmm?

Well, I have just the cure for that. Just give a few momments.

All right, I'll mix a little of this, a little of that. A dab here and a dash there. Oh, and a pinch of this everywhere. Now to pour everything into a mixer and "Shake, shake, shake your body, shake your body line ... *starts to hum absentmindedly*. Wait, whats this bottle of nitroglycerin doing with my cocktail ingrediants? Oh dear ... *explosion*

[Bond]
