annundrielWinter quarter registration was yesterday for freshmen. It's a bitch, let me tell you. My time to start registering was 2:15 pm. I wasn't finished by 4:15. Do it easily online my arse. I kept getting kicked off. So I got two of my classes registered by 4:15, but the philosophy class I needed to take was all full. By then I was an hour and 15 minutes late for work, although I did call saying I hoped to be in by 3:30. Anyway, I basically said, "Screw philosophy!", went to work, and tried again after dinner. It was still full, so I signed up for my first Social Science core class, Intro. to Anthropology. Which I wanted to take eventually anyway.
Also, I talked to my English professor yesterday and she suggested that I take my first Survey of British Lit. class instead of English 120, which I don't have to take as an English Major. BUT it was full up when I tried to register. AND my adviser said I should take 120. So I'll talk to my prof today before/after class and see what she thinks. As of this moment, I'm registered for English 120. I figure better to be safe than sorry, right? And I chose the one at 7:45 in the morning. I didn't want another 7:45 class, but if I can do it this quarter, I can do it next quarter.
I am, however, happy to report that I kicked some major booty on ALL THREE of my midterms. Oh yeah. I'm off to a nice little start here at college. I don't know if it is just the school I'm going to or what, but thus far it is much easier than I was expecting. Thus far.

Monday I went and saw A Midsummer Night's Dream as performed on campus. HILARIOUSLY funny and racy as all get out. I mean...Whoa. People were shirtless and there was an orgy! And this at a Jesuit university! :-O

EB came by on Tuesday to do stuff. It was raining heavily (D'uh, it is Seattle.) so we didn't go up Broadway for lunch like we were planning. Just popped over to Starbucks across the street. It was kinda funny though. Before she left we were sitting in the lobby and my RA passed by so I waved and he smiled and EB turned to me and was all, "That guy smiled at you." "Yes, EB. He's my RA." "Oh," she says. "I'll stop dropping hints then."
It was pretty funny if you were there. Honest.

Wednesday I went to Straight: A Conversion Comedy (a filmed performance about the movement to convert gay and lesbian people) with one of the girls on my floor. It was on campus as part of the academic salons they've been doing. It was hilariously funny and very interesting. The guy who wrote and performed it was there and we got to ask questions afterward.

Date: 2003-11-24 01:25 pm (UTC)They tell you to plan your schedule, but when it comes down to it, planned schedules mean nothing. There is a possibility I'll get into my Brit. Lit. class after all though.
Isn't registration a headache?
