Reflect this GRE

Geometry in no way reflect my abilities in CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY!
I doubt this will ever be an equation I have to figure out...

What is the area of the sector occupied by 5 Mayans sitting in a circle of 15 Mayans?

(I think the answer would be 1/3 the area of total Mayans!)

Exhausted

16.5 hours of GRE cramming this weekend+extreme levels of anxiety+having to prepare for lecture today!
................................................

During GRE class I came to fully understand how much I must show I am not annoying and would make an excellent grad student in my personal statement; I would have shot 9/15 students within the first semester of working with them!

Also, the smart instructor pointed out that no matter how much you study there will be words that no one knows on the test. His example? "COOPER" Um... someone that makes barrels (evidently, I'm the first to ever know what it is... and yes I knew the meaning before my stint in the wine industry) I think I learned cooper with blacksmith and mason in 6th grade history. Also we live near major wine area of the world... has no one ever read a book about a winery?

While working in wine world, I always drove by this sign and it was all I could do not to pull over and fix it... "Fresh Strawberries and Cherry's"

What are yours?

The Iron Cage of Bureaucray

I'm so happy to have a job that doesn't involve trying to sell people on the joys of working in the wine industry or feigning a "passion for human resources" that this all is only slightly more than an annoyance...

-Contract did not come in until Friday-therefore not signable until Tuesday.
-Can't finish syllabus for printing... don't have email address yet!
-Can't upload documents to LOCUS or send to the reserve room...don't have emial!
-Can't see class list...don't have access to computer system because i don't have email!
-Can't contact computer helpdesk to try to figure out the email situation... holiday weekend!

But can finish all of MY outside reading for the first week (which means going to the bookstore for coffee) and probably can work in a pedicure (thanks to TAC for the suggestion!)
