I try to keep my complaining about the class to home, or places like SSD, where no students or staff are around to hear it The ONLY person at school that I talk to about it in even a slightly negative light, is a very close friend of mine who I've been on-and-off with for years relationship-wise. I trust him; if he hasn't done anything to screw me over even when we're not on good terms, then I don't see complaining to him off-campus hurting me at all on-campus. I trust he'll keep his lips zipped, but even then, he and I don't really talk about our classes all that much... we're always IN class, so who wants to talk about it when we're actually OUT of class?!
