Saying goodbye

Today I got a new student ID card. Not cause I lost my old one, the poor thing was just wore out. It doesn't work to swipe to get into the PAC equipment room anymore. Last night the dude that sits at the desk as you swipe in beaked me cause I'm supposed to have a card that works, and 'he shouldn't let me in but he would this time but I should go get a new card.' Kinesiology fourth year on a power trip. Jeez.

I tried to make'er last but she couldn't hack it anymore. I've had that thing through 7 years of school-and I wanted it to see the end of my years at the U of S. I look so young in my pic that people say they can't recognize me. The paint on the front was starting to chip off of it. Plus it was fun watching the librarians get pissed because they couldn't run their laser pen across my bar-code, then get all bent out of shape when they had to type it in! HAHA! I am so diabolical....

So, now I have a new card. The picture looks a little more jaded and scarier, the bar code and magnetic strips now function properly, and I can walk the PAC halls with impunity.

ha ha, it is only natural that us grad students look a little (or in my case, a whole hell of a lot) jaded in our school pics. after all, six (or worse, seven) years of paying tuition can sure bite the big one!
