NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Ok... I'm supposed to schedule my winter quarter classes online tonight, right? It's pretty much a given that I'm taking Japanese 310 and 311, the continuation of the intensive course I'm taking right now... and next quarter it will take up the hours between 9:30 and 11:18 because that's the only time slot available, right? So, my plan was to take one of the 4 or 5 general curriculum courses I have left to take - I need 3 more sciences, anthropology 597.03, and maaaybe a 500-series political science. Anyway, I was planning on getting one of those sciences out of the way. I have several choices that somewhat interest me AND are 'strong' enough to please the honors department, including geography, geology (possibly 2-course sequence), and astronomy (also possible 2-course sequence). Yay, lots of options.
Plan #1: Astronomy 161, honors. I check it out in the course bulletin and I find that the course is not open to students with credit for Math 150. Which I have. So astronomy is out.
Plan #2: Geology 121, honors. To be followed by honors 122 in a sequence. So I look that up in the course bulletin - and, of course, honors 121 is not being offered this quarter. Moving on.
Plan #3: Geography 220, honors. This was not on my honors pre-contract, while astronomy and geology are, but I figured I could take the geol. sequence instead of the astron. sequence since I have credit for Math 150, and leave geog. as my third and final science course. So I look THAT up in the course bulletin. Honors version... not available.
So, getting worried at this point. That means I can't take any of the 3 sciences I still need. What other options do I have? Oh yeah...
Plan #4: Anthrop. 597.03, honors. So I look THAT up in the bulletin. Lo and behold, the honors version is available winter quarter.
BUT!
...only from 9:30-11:18. The exact same time slot Jap. 310-311 go into.
AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGG!!!
FOUR original options, all down the drain. That leaves... pretty much nothing in the general curriculum department. Unless I settle for chemistry or physics, which I do NOT want to do. I HATE them. I refuse to associate with them if I have ANY other option. Which I do. Or I SHOULD. But not next quarter. >_<
So... what am I supposed to do? Fill the spot with another Japanese class, I guess. I really didn't want to have to do that. Partially because the monotony of only studying one thing for a whole quarter might just wear me down, partially because I want to get my general junk out of the way for good, and partially because that means I'll have to meet with someone in the Japanese department to see what the heck I can take at the same time as 310-311. 251 (a literature course) comes to mind, but I'm not sure...
Well, anyway... as I look again, I see that honors geog. 220 MAY be available in the spring. I might be able to work with that, as long as it doesn't conflict with the times of my last Japanese language sequence which is that quarter. And how much are you willing to bet that that's EXACTLY what will happen? -_____-
I'm never gonna get out of here by spring '04... *pounds head on desk*
