It's that time of the semester again - registering for classes. Everyone spends weeks perfecting their schedules with exactly the right professor and times for optimal hours of sleep and amount of course work. The only thing in the way is the actual registering. No school's servers are ever ready for the amount of students trying to register. I have spent a minimum of two hours trying to register every single time. Everyone is racing against their peers for the best schedule, and it is a major cause of frustration for all. Here's the struggle of registering for classes as told through gifs

Researching professors

Gotta find the best professor

Making your schedule

Time to sit down and write it all out

Re-making your schedule because your first one wasn't perfect

You'll spend hours making possible schedules

Waiting for your registration day

When will the day arrive?

Waiting for your registration time on said day

I constantly check the clock

Racing to log on to your registration site

Nothing prepares you for the rush of adrenaline as you try to log in

The face you make when the wifi is super slow

Well...you try to log in. And then it takes ten minutes (or more) for the website to load

How the servers feel trying to handle all the students registering

But really, why hasn't a server been developed yet to handle all the traffic on registration days?

When the class you wanted has no more spots but you have to keep going on with your life

Mourn the loss of your perfect schedule, and then move on and keep registering. You can cry later

Trying to get the rest of the classes you want

Waitlists upon waitlists

Finally finishing registering

Time to let out a huge sigh of relief

Watching everyone else struggle to register after you

Psh, that wasn't too bad.

Happy Registering!
