:/

it's been years!
it's the homerun of school...finals are next week and everyone's feeling the heat.
there was a takeover at sfsu a few days ago. a bunch of people took over the business building and barricaded the doors and whatnot. i have mixed feelings over this. while i do condone protesting for what you believe in and can see their reasoning behind taking the business building in particular (not as many cuts in that department compared to the humanities and art etc...), i find their "list of demands" (check it out at occupysfsu.wordpress.com) quite idealistic (not that it's not admirable) but i do think they should've stayed on topic, this is, the budget cuts. yes, it's true that there are less classes and less space, less days of school (i think almost a quarter less!) and well, less of everything. students should be speaking up. how? well, keeping it old school and taking it to sac-town for one. i've done some lobbying in my life, have you? don't bitch and fail to speak to your own politicians.
well, i should be graduating after spring. should be. we'll see how it goes..
