Honestly, that's the way it should be.

Leadership is different, because, well it's a strange and wacky class. That's why I was surprised to hear about Nine's Spanish class...

Haha, I've fallen so behind in school that I really don't know if I can actually manage to catch up at this point. At first I thought I was just ridiculously behind in math, but I've fallen behind in like almost every other course.
There's a point at which the catchup is just way too overwhelming, so I keep running away from it and making it worse.

Over here it is. Depending on the teacher. Last semester I took math at the University and didn't go at all but to take tests and I passed it just fine. Teacher didn't care. However, the PE class was an automatic failing grade if you missed more than three times.

Tina. It's glorious if you chose the right teachers.

absolutely no one cares in lecture halls.

in 300 level classes, which are mostly 20 or less people, attendance is vital.

Seriously? I mean, obviously no one would notice if you weren't there in a huge lecture hall as opposed to a 200-person class, but I'd imagine they still wouldn't... care. I mean, they'd notice, but you wouldn't face actual repercussions

Nobody cares or takes attendance for me, except for labs. But with labs I can get full marks just by turning up and doing stuff, so I don't really mind.

Bleh, I hate all-nighters because of how strange the following day always is. I go back and forth between being strangely giddy (I wrote "boob" on Alex's page in physics and I amused myself for about 2 solid minutes with it) and exhausted/dead.
This isn't too bad, because the giddy phases are pretty entertaining. The bad part is, I'm never tired when I get home, meaning I have to kill a few hours until I'm tired, so then I nap. But napping means I'm wide awake at 1 am. Ugh.

Minor bitch that what I thought would be 30 minutes of notes actually took 3 hours. 22 cue cards, covered. And the hard part is actually memorizing all this... for a quiz.

Cardinal, why would you waste 8 hours configuring a media player?

Because foobar is absolutely awesome once you've gone through that time. It's time well invested if you're going to use it pretty much every day for years.

Unless it makes dinner for you and does your homework, I don't see how it could be so radically different from any other media player to justify spending that much time and effort on it. :x

The only reason I spent 8 hours is because 3 of that was spent tidying up all the ID3 tags on my music collection, which was well worth it. Then I kept running into problems while installing layouts - I couldn't find one that would actually work. Plus, I just wanted a change from iTunes.
I finally found one I liked yesterday, did a clean install, and installed the theme. It looks pretty sweet, but the damn foo_wlm plugin apparently fucked everything up, and even after deleting it, MSN still does not want to run with foobar running.

EDIT: holy shit i think i got it working
