WHY are all the good english and philosophy papers in Semester One? Especially English - guess what the english department is offering at 300 level in S2 next year? Post-colonial literature and New Zealand literature (and prose fiction writing with Owen Marshall which I a) don't wanna do b)wouldn't get into even though c) it is reportedly amazing.) Why not just STAB MYSELF IN THE EYE WITH THE SPORK OF EMPIRE? God.

As for the philosophy department - why are you scheduling Political Philosophy to clash with cultures of the supernatural, the English paper I HAVE to take? WHY? WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY? Why? Why do I have to pick between a paper called Social Justice and a paper that will make me read Coraline and write about Buffy?

*sulks sulkily*

Social Justice! *crying*

If it makes you feel better, my school apparently doesn't understand that second year Physics and second year Plate Tectonic Theory are both required courses in geophysics, and have scheduled them at the EXACT SAME TIME and have thus. . . set back my specialization module very effectively.

Can you get a special permission to do two classes at once? I mean, obviously it would suck huge amounts to just show up to half the classes of each class because you have another class at the exact same time. . . but that's always an option.

Ugh, that's moronic! My sympathies.

You actually can, but this is a monumental clash - two classes in every three. I just don't think I can get by, unfortunately.

How much clash are we talking? Russian clashed with my stats class last year and my history and microbiology courses this year, but I got around it by begging, getting friends to take notes, and not doing my Russian labs as much as I should have. It wasn't ideal, but it was doable. Though I suppose with discussion courses that might not be so possible.

And they schedule these clashes BECAUSE THEY HATE YOU, duh.

I'm spittaking at your icon. these ones (http://amarynth.livejournal.com/673482.html) include some of my favourites.

Unfortunately, we're talking about a clash of two hours in every three. One class is thursday 2-5, the other is one hour on tuesday, and thursday 3-5. it's kinda hard to get away from a clash like that.
