Course Registration As Told By 'Harry Potter'

1. You're casually sitting in class when you get the email from your advisor to sign up for advisement.


2. You go to sign up for an appointment, but the annoying girl in all your classes took the last afternoon session, so now you have to go at 9 a.m. on a Friday.


3. You start deciding what classes you'll take next semester based on if the professor got a chili pepper on Rate My Professor or not.

4. You ask your friends to help you with your schedule, but they're just as lost as you.


5. You start reading through the remaining classes you have to take, and immediately regret the bad decisions you made freshman year.

6. You call your parents to let them know you're dropping out.

7. They're super understanding.


8. You go to your appointment with your advisor, and try to be their best friend so they can give you an early registration day.

9. They ask you in about 15 different ways what your plans are post-graduation.


10. If you're one of the lucky ones, they will map out what classes you need to take for your remaining semesters in order to graduate with no problems.


11. You'll be shocked and amazed that you in fact will not have to stay in school for nine years.


12. You have to try and hold your composure when they give you your registration day and time and it's November 1st at 9 a.m.


13. Before you leave they'll remind you to remember to sign up for classes.


14. The day of, you're sitting around waiting for it to be your time, and you try to think of happier times when life was easy and you could remember what sleep felt like.


15. The library is an absolute war zone. There's people running around trying to find spare outlets, some girl is crying in the corner, and two guys got in a fist fight over the last empty computer.


16. You religiously refresh to check the one class you HAVE to be in, and see the remaining seats number fall closer and closer to zero.


17. Someone will try to bribe you to not sign up for a class, so they can take it.


18. Your friends who have already registered won't stop talking about how perfect their schedules are.


19. When it finally is your time, you immediately log the course numbers you need and take no prisoners.

20. You get your courses set, and you got every class you wanted, so you try to play it off like you weren't even nervous to begin with.

21. After registration is over, everyone can go back to being themselves.


Happy registering! And always remember: "Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to take an online class."

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
