Registration Proves To Be Too Much: Student Bursts Into Flame
Odyssey

College registration has always been a difficult process, no matter where you went to school. However, it just proved to be too much for a local college student, whose frustrations over the process caused him to burst into flame.

When asked what happened, his roommate said, "I don't know, man. He was just trying to register for his classes when the whole website just crashed on him. This usually happens, but after an hour, the website still wasn't working."

Anyone who's ever registered for classes knows the race to get a seat in all of the classes is an intense race against the clock.

"I remember hearing him try calling the Registrar, but all he got was a robot voice instead of an actual person, ya know? That just made him, like, lash out and start screaming about how 'he just wants to register for his f***ing classes'."

That's when everything began to get intense fast.

"He's just in our room screaming and then he just burst into flame. That s*** was crazy. It was like that baby from 'The Incredibles' — it was that quick."

The student then ran to the shower to put out his frustration flames and actually came out pretty unscathed.

"I think we were both pretty shocked to find that he wasn't even really burned. Then again, neither of us had ever really experienced someone spontaneously bursting into flame, so I guess anything was possible, really."

After this whole ordeal, the student went back to his laptop and found the website to be working again. He registered for all of his classes successfully, only having to change a couple times of his classes.

When asked how his roommate is handling the knowledge of having this newfound power, his roommate responded with, "I'm pretty sure he spends any free time he has googling how to become an X-Men."

Let's hope Professor X can show him how to use his powers for good- or, at least, figure out how to make registration not as painful.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
