So I've been dis-enrolled from school for the stupidest reason. I'll go through them in steps, for your disheartening pleasure.
Step 1. Apparently the high school nor the medical department have any records of any of my immunization shots, ever. I don't recall getting immunized when I was younger, but I remember getting something in order to stay in high school.
Step 2. I was sent multiple times, a paper stating that I needed to take my MMR / Meningitis shots.
Step 3. I could not receive any of those shots because our expiration on our insurance ran out. I don't think I should post which company that is, just for legality issues.
Step 4. SOLELY the Meningitis shots cost $120 dollars alone without the MMR, which we can't really afford because of our financial situation. I don't even want to know how much the MMR shots cost. If one shot costs $120, and you take four shots all-together, it's $480, which we really can't afford at all.
Step 5. After my health insurance was finally re-enrolled around the week before the deadline, [which I didn't know about] I immediately tried contacting a medical office in which I could get my shots, paid by my health insurance.
Step 6. I go to the office and wait, and have a physical check-up along with blood drawing. For some reason, with Meningitis, there is no waiting, and you can have the shot taken immediately. With MMR, however, you have to wait for 2 days, while they sample your blood, to see if your vulnerable or something like that, I'm not sure, don't quote me on that.
Step 7. I wait the 2 days and go back, by this time, it is Wednesday, which leaves me two days to finish everything, and hand everything in by Friday. Everything turns out fine, and it turns out that I am naturally immune to MMR, so the whole process was complete wasted time. I get the official sheet signed and stamped by the doctor, that is needed by my college.
Step 8. After I go home, on Friday, I wake up and realize that I lost my sheet. I immediately freak out, panic, and call the clinic in order to get another copy of the sheet.
Step 9. I go, and get the sheet, which took a staggering 2 hours, which also really annoyed me.
Step 10. Since I did not know about the deadline, and wasn't even notified about it at all, I handed the sheet in on Monday. The person I handed it to said, and I quote, "Alright everything is fine, you can attend your classes now."
Step 11. The next day I go to my class, and it turns out that I am dis-enrolled, and am no longer registered into any of my classes.
Step 12. I freak out, panic, and call the Vice President of the Health Services, and to my oh so wonderful pleasure, find out that he cannot do anything for me.
So there's my story, which is in actually bullshit. Nothing should ever happen like this, it is totally ridiculous.
Just because of the sheer amount of time it took me to get my vaccinations, I missed an entire week of school, and on top of that, I missed both Monday and Tuesday.
So in total I missed 6 days of school. So even if my father threatens a lawsuit, and gets me back into school, or by some miracle I'm re-enrolled, I still would have missed almost 2 weeks of school. This cannot do. As soon as I go back to my classes, I will have to take tests that I do not know the answers to, and study stuff that I do not know about.
So, in essence, this whole semester is a complete waste.
What crap.
