Registering for classes for the upcoming semester is always a fight to the finish. It is like all of the tributes from the "Hunger Games" racing to the Cornucopia to receive the best supplies, rather it is students racing to find the best classes at the best times, with the best professors.

There are always those students though, that do not get the opportunity to participate in this race because they were given an enrollment time on the last day at the worst time.

Here are the stages of frustration for these students who cannot participate.

1. Looking at your enrollment date and seeing the awful time

2. Going to your advisor to see what they can do to help you and they can't do anything

3. Watching all of your classes get taken day by day

4. Giving up and submitting the only classes available at the time

5. Feeling some sense of relief when it is done, hoping you can participate in the race next semester

I know it is not fun when you have the bad enrollment time, but sometimes you just have to go with the flow because you never know when random seats in the classes you need will open again. I wish you luck in this race!!
