There's not much going on in my life other than the final haul that comes with the last three weeks of the semester. However, it is course registration time at CU right now, and with my registration time coming up this week, I thought it would be a good time to talk about it. In general, I want to take a lot of course at CU - I mean, sky's the limit... if it looks interesting, I want to try to fit it in. I'm interested in philosophy, psychology, photography and anything from Greek to graphic design.
However, it just so happens that with the fall 2010 semester, I won't really be choosing from that long list of courses that interest me - I'll be sticking to my major, minor, and CU's core requirements. Also, because it turned out two of the course I'll be taking are 4 credits each, it looks like I will only be taking four classes, instead of five, (for a total of 14 credits) which will be an interesting change from this semester, when I had 16.
Overall, assembling my schedule for the fall was really quite easy, more a matter of figuring out which recitation periods would work than which classes to take. I just hope everything I want is still open by the time I actually get to register. Furthermore, CU notably changed the registration system they used this semester, and I'm hoping it functions properly and easily when I get to sign up for classes.
What should be interesting about the fall is that I either have long classes or short classes - I have two 3+ hour film courses in the afternoons, but then I don't have any hour-and-fifteen minute lectures, I ended up all with 50-minute lectures/50-minute recitations. Perhaps this will end up feeling more like high school.
Those are just a few of my musings on registration for the upcoming term. If you have any questions about CU's registration process, feel free to ask. If you're a student, have you registered yet? Did you get the classes you wanted?
Cheers :)
