Phuq.

Well, it looks like my plans are totally hosed for after I graduate. I am totally shocked that there is a large university out there that doesn't have an education department, but that's the case for UTD. I wasn't really looking forward to goingthere in the first place, as it's a soulless wasteland from what I've been told, but it is placed inthe right place, and it was unfathomable that they'd lack such a common college in their ranks. However, that's the truth of it, so no reason to grouse any longer.

My choices are now threefold. I can remain here in the hinterlands of civilization and deal with the lack of mass transit andthe king kong hassles that will ensue from the construction of the Boss Hawg Pig Palace so close to my home, along with the increase in crime and the hassles that will be involved if I want to go anywhere further than three blocks in any direction, I can travel to Denton for a degree from UNT, which has the same hassles in transportation and is farther than here from family members that can assist me in getting around, or I can find some way to afford the financial butt raping that comes with attending SMU.

Decisions, decisions.
