I can´t really understand some stuff. You know when some people, leaders from school tells you that you have to do certain stuff to do, like for example to go to Health Center ON CAMPUS whenever you´re sick. Anyway, you go there because it´s the only place you´re allowed to go to when you´re ill (at the very first, before seeing a reeeeeeal doc). If you´re missing class, you have to have a doc´s note to tell I`M DYING for God´s sake. When you´re at Health Center, they take your temp and pulls up your mouth and wants you to say "aaaaaaaahhhh". Whenever you´ve done that, when they´ve realized your bad as hell and death is almost waiting for you on the next block, they say; "Oh well we don´t give notes". - W0000000000000t??? Wtf... are you telling me I dragged myself 6 blocks to school in this condition to hear this when I have sweat, fever, death, sweat, fever and more death - but the last one you don´t want it for you, you want it for THEM. I´m telling them how I´m going to be supposed to recieve a damn note to spread it on my professor´s faces to tell that I actually have been super sick and on that I had to expose myself into hard winds and more fever to get none note? Jeeeeeeeez, give me a break. I signed a certificate where they CAN tell the professor that I have been at the center and that I was sick, but they don´t tell what´s wrong and this is IF the professor calls to make sure that I was there.
I got this super nice e-mail where my prof. says that it´s not her problem to find out weather I´m ill or not. I must leave a note and that´s it. Come on... how am I going to do that, there are no doctors or notes at Health Center. I understand that it´s not her job, but come on. If I gave so much information on my e-mail to her and the rest of the instructors, it´s because I´m telling the truth. Otherwise, I wouldn´t bother to first write the stupid e-mail, two, put the name of the nurse and three, tell them that they told me to tell them to call them. Understand? Fuck, stupid system.
I´m still feeling like a donkey´s ass and I still have no note for nobody. This sucks. I can´t go to a "real" doctor either, because this stupid system results in a huge amount of money and it´s not worth it for a flu. Yeah, I have the flu, the bitchiest flu ever with no paper that allows me to have the flu or to have headaches - migraine. I just have to sit on my butt, waiting for nothing.
Pleasant day, huh?
