Waaaaa, registration was so awful today! I'm still trying to recover!

Everything was going fine to begin with. 10:30 on the nose I log in to register, yay! I input the first class, no problems. I go to input my second one which happens to be spanish, but nooooo, they don't want to let me take it. So after some nicely strung sentences of curse words, I figure I best try and get all my other classes in. So thank god, I got all the other ones I wanted in the times I wanted. Problem left however was how to fill a full credit which spanish would have occupied.

So I frantically start pouring over my course book trying to find a course. Literally I tried courses in Anthropology, Art History, Biology, Business, Criminology, Film Studies, History, Humanities, Human Rights, Religion, Social work, Sociology, and Women's studies. Of course I did this for two bloody hours! Would you like to know why? Because each time I tried to register I ran into one of these problems:

a) I had degree restrictions
b) I needed an A (friggin B+ will haunt be forever)
c) The course no longer existed
d) I needed a prerequisite
e) It was scheduled at the same time as my other courses I couldn't move
f) The course was full
g) The course was full...but it still allows you to click on that box getting your hopes up
h) The course was scheduled at 8:30 in the morning
i) The course was only offered on iTV but since I don't have digital it's not an option
j) This one I love, A warning would come up, but when I went to get help from this long list of warning explanations, it wasn't there. I think I found about three new ones that weren't on the list.

After the first hour I came to think there was a massive conspiracy against me. And by the second hour I knew it was true. Of just a few of the above listed problems, one of the worst was that they didn't offer certain classes this year, or that they don't exist anymore. I tried so hard to get in another history credit, but I think after trying about 6 credits and having them all not offered this year I gave up. I tried taking so many first year stupid intro courses, but I couldn't find any without running into the above mentioned problems.

So out of desperation I just snatched up the only two half credit courses it would allow me to take. One is religion 1205 which is something about different interpretations of religious beliefs from different view points. And secondly, I ended up with Anthropology something...about...something I don't remember (I signed up in a delusional flash) The courses themselves actually don't sound to bad verses some of the desperation attempts I had made before, but they ruin my perfect plan. The only day I had off this term had to be filled by the RELI class and next semester the ANTH class is a stupid night time one which are awful.

So right now I am thoroughly exhausted, pissed off and hungry. And to make matters worse last night I put out the wrong recycling, so I had do the walk of shame to bring it back in the house, but I had forgotten after the morning's events I hadn't really changed from my pj's so as I'm fuming from the registration, and trying very hard not to be seen because im an idiot who put the wrong stuff out, it's starting to dawn on me about the pj situtaion and who comes by? Ah yes my not-it -all anal neighbour pops out of her house. I freeze half down the drive way, spin around at Mach 3 and run back into my house. I eventually got the recycling back in, once I was positive she was gone (most likely staring out her window at that point)

Alas my day has just sucked, and apparently it's supposed to rain tonight...booo
