As if finishing the semester, getting ready for graduation, and fighting with my mother isn't enough, yesterday I had a midterm in MCB and I had to put up with this. The cause of the protest is irrelevant. That they actively tried to prohibit me and my 600 classmates from taking a test that had nothing to do with their issue shows just how misguided protests can get. It's just an opinion of one, but this one is now set against listening to their issue simply because of the inconsiderate and harmful manner in which they tried to 'educate' me (by stomping and yelling at the top of their lungs to disrupt the exam).

I find it wryly amusing that the police arrested people because they were interfering with students access to the building, but they didn't start making arrests until 4:30, after the demonstration had been in full swing for four hours, and classes were done for the day.

Now if only that were the worst of the issues I have to tackle today.
