"pacrat - if you are going to call in an hour, call now. the Dept Head may very well not be at his desk anyway."

that's basically what I've been doing today in emails, asking for suggestions etc as to what i need to do at this point . . .
|
i was careful to say that I'm just concerned with taking care of what I need to do at this point . . . and i realize that during the summertime, the professors don't *have* to be there or do much of anything. it just bothers me that there are things I need to do to take care of my academic affairs, and it's frustrating as fuck when I have to meet with somoene to get things like proposals worked out and then okay'd by them and then the department and I can't get in touch with the person who is to help me out on it.
and then to suddenly have a deadline come up 2 days later? i'm just pissed and frustrated that i have such little time to do it, and i've been trying literally all summer to meet with this professor to iron out issues and haven't been able to, and now the dept. head is basically asking me "do you really want to write a thesis?"
i can't help but think that i'm casually being pushed into a different direction, one that I didn't really care to go in when i signed up for this program to begin with . . .
