To get a form processed to allow me to finish my degree in Spring I had to contact an individual who is identified as the “Academic Counselor for the College of Arts and Sciences”. I don’t know if she is having hump-day blues or what, but she managed to thoroughly screw over every piece of […]
One of the most frustrating things that can happen in a centralized network environment such as Active Directory is the deletion of one’s user account. I have never given much thought or had any sort of plan in place for the situation of an accidental account deletion, but on Sunday evening, such an event occurred. […]
I received my grade and a note from my sociology instructor this morning regarding my 2nd essay test on the lectures. “Very nicely done, Curtis. You corrected the few flaws I saw in your first paper, and honestly aside from some very minor punctuation and grammar flaws I have very little to criticize here…great paper. […]
I am a little worried about tomorrow. Its just another Monday in the academic term according to the calendar, but for me, it marks the beginning of the last unit of study in my Introduction to Sociology (SOC 210) course. According to the grade book I have 3 more quizzes and one more test to […]

Found something surprising tonight while looking over my records though. Apparently NCSU has been reporting me as “withdrawn” for the past 3 semesters. […]
It has been almost a year since I started project 365, but unfortunately, I abandoned it around day 120. Now that it is coming back around to that time of year again, I’m considering trying again. I have been pretty lame at the whole photo thing lately, not really doing any for fun, just when […]
I just finished my first test in Intro to Sociology and I am a bit worried. I have spent the last 5 days working on and off on the essay test answering four questions. The general idea was that the answers to the four test questions would come from the four lectures that were posted […]
