After talking to three people and through face-to-face contact and email, I finally got an answer about my classes... As in my dad asked his friend's wife through work about scheduling. All of the people I spoke with previously said "It's April 26, beyond that we can't give you help." My dad's friend's wife said "You can ask the professors to register you for the class early, or the coordinator for your major."
Why, yes, I do believe you are correct. If a school official can access my school records they can register me for any class at any time. Getting that help from them was quite ridiculous since I had to go through just about every route in order to get a response other than "I can't help you."
Luckily, today went much better than yesterday. Linguistics let out early and it opened with a clip from The Shining, which was surprisingly related to syntax. Any class that opens with a Jack Nicholson clip is a good class. It dealt with Garden-Paths, and my friend Jodi made a reference to Labyrinth at this point in time because she knows I am in love with Jareth. It was a highlight to my day. And the humorous moments were a good way to end this lovely (rainy) day.
I got to spend the day with my friend Clem, which was nice since we share an equal addiction to acetylcholine (caffeine). It was nice to just sit and chat for a while since there's always so much going on. Sometimes you just have to slow down and enjoy a nice latte from Starbucks on a rainy day in April.
On the way to class I got to get my chilly down with the fire gang ←Labyrinth reference.
In other words I listened to the Labyrinth soundtrack and had to listen to Chilly Down for a good while since it makes me want to dance.
You can tell it's going to be a good day when it begins with Labyrinth.
(A random historical fact: Today marks the anniversary of the beginning of the American Civil War.)
