mosquitoes and juniors

im so unbelievably bored and much more irritated. i got two of tomorrow's classes to prepare for, a roza to keep, sleep a bit (it's almost 2:30), class shirts and visiting cards to design, emails to answer... and then maybe my patience to work on. thys place where im at, is full of BScs (thats what we call the BSC students). umm... initially, when thys place was designed, it was xclusively a business school, and then these ppl figured they couldnt make ends meet, and that they needed more prey to milk... hence the lill ones... (which was very interesting, because when the bach. school came about, and the earlier classes graduated, they were actually rejected jobs and admissions on the basis that "how can a management school be giving CS degrees?" anyways, life went on, and the MBAs today are overwhelmingly outnumbered by the critters from the bach school -- i believe the ratio is umm... 200-1. when i came to thys place two months ago, the BScs had yet to start. it took me a month to get used to the environment and the surroundings... and then... lo! and behold! the bscs arrived... it was a bloody infestation man... they landed like a swarm of cicadas, and im not kidding, the noise level was deafening... *chitter chitter chitter chitter* and they were everywhere. left, right and center... in the dining halls, library, in the computer labs... eveywhere you looked there was a BSC lurking around :p walking to and fro, you found them crawling under your feet... and it was at that point i wished for a BSC repellent. you know... you could just spray it at their groups, that were blocking your way, or creating an undesirable racket. imagine waisay... it would be tres cool to have a spray that would eliminate all the undesirable elements (read people) in yer life. *sigh* but what should be hardly ever is... anyways, i'm usually a pretty thandi bandi, and dont let 2,000 or so 17-22-yr-olds get to me... but they've closed off the MBA lab for ramadan, and now im having to use a new machine in a new place, in a totally new environment -- with a totally new high-pitched giggling in the background. and the fact is, thys lab is REALLY hot. man im in a bad mood. and 32 minutes later, i still got my marketing/stats stuff to do. did i mention i got a moron reading all thys over my shoulder? that doesnt add to the sunshine :p *swot* (one BCS down, 1999 to go).
