various blabberings (mostly summer living situation related)

I'm back.
I've been bouncing in and out of LJ activation status, as I shall probably continue to do until finals are over. (Also, there shall be absolutely no formal reading of LJ during this time, so have no expectations of having your journal read, much less commented on, until then.) Once all of this is done, I'll contact those who thought I left LJ and deleted me and let them know I'm still here if they want to re-add me. (There's no real good way to let people know what's going on because if they don't catch your message in time there's no way for them to catch it.)
But anyways... Things are weird in finances land. A lot of it is expressly my fault, too. I'm feeling like a rather bad daughter right now, especially since "future self" isn't covering the entirety of the bookstore purchases I made this semester, and also since it's looking like I'm gonna have to live in Yudof this summer if I can't figure out a way out of my contract. Not that I'd mind, of course, but it's still so totally opposite from what my dad asked of me. I'm thinking of picking up a bunch more hours at work this summer - maybe at other UDS locations as well? Also having a massive book/garage sale. Maybe that'll recoup some of what I made future/current self/parents spend money on.
On the other hand, if I do end up living in Yudof this summer, it might very well be with Katie as a roommate! *crosses my fingers* Despite my affirmation that there's no point in living in an off-campus apartment (and that dorms and with your parents are the only sensible options unless your parents live outside of a reasonable commuting distance), part of me wants to get an apartment just so I can live with one of my friends. ^^;
I need to hurry up and figure out what May/Summer classes I'm taking before Tuesday morning arrives. Assuming my hold's lifted by then. (Man, it'd suck if the classes I want fill before I get a chance to register. Stupid free-for-all...)

This is Nastassja Riemermann, signing off.

P.S. If you know anyone who's interested in taking my space (not neccesarily my room or with my roommate) in Yudof this summer who doesn't already have a summer spot and isn't on the waiting list, have them contact me at riem0024. 2-person 2-bedroom super suites cost $1,343.00 for the period running from June 1st to July 31st, and they have a bedroom, washer, dryer, bathroom with shower, full-size fridge, microwave, double sink, electric range and stove.

room change tomorrow

That was easy.
I'm moving into a 4-person 2-bedroom (which currently has two people, making me the third) in Yudof tomorrow.
I wonder which of us is getting our own room?
Anyways, it's gonna reduce this semester's room cost by $500 and will get me out of the summer term.

P.S. Check out the free shipping on Boo plushies. Must buy. :)

[EDIT: Sharon just changed her mind and put me in a room with three people already, making me the fourth.]

May/summer classes and the beginnings of my fall classes ("for sure" classes in bold)

So, May term I'm thinking HIST 3429: Latin American History in Film and Text (which meets meets the liberal education requirements of Cultural Diversity Theme andHistorical Perspective Core), a three credit class which I'd take S/N. I'll hate it, but at least it'll only be three weeks long and will get two dumb themes out of the way.
Then for summer... Well, I'm looking at LING 5501: Introduction to Language Acquisition, but they haven't decided who's going to teach it yet and I'm scared to face Prof. Mulkern again. I also wonder if they'll have that thing again where you have to have at least junior standing to get into 5xxx or above ling classes. (However, they did say Prof. Mulkern is unlikely for that class.) So maybe some combination of CSCI 1902, MATH 1272, or BIOL 1009, PHYS 1301W. Of course, if I decide to do something really stupid and get a B.S. in c.sci. (setting my graduation date back God knows how far), I'll have to take PHYS 1302 which will make BIOL 1009 worthless.
A small part of me wants to take German 1001 and 1002, but I'm going to be strong and ignore that part of me.

May:
- HIST 3429: Latin American History in Film and Text (3 cr. (will be taken S/N) - Cultural Diversity Theme, Historical Perspective Core) / M-F 10:10 - 1:10 [87100] (05/22 - 06/09)

Summer:
- PHYS 1301W: Introductory Physics for Science and Engineering I (4 cr. - Physical Science/Lab Core, Writing Intensive) / M Tu W F 11:15 - 12:05, some dis/lab (05/22 - 08/18)
either:
- LING 5501: Introduction to Language Acquisition (3 cr.) / M W Th 2:30 - 4:25 [81120] (06/12 - 08/04)
or:
Damn it... I can't decide between MATH 1272 and CSCI 1902... I don't need MATH 1272 for the CSCI minor, but I need it for a course (CSCI 2011) I might use for the minor and that I need for ADMISSION to either the B.A. or the B.S. if I choose to go that way... On the other hand, if I don't decide to get a B.A. or B.S. in CSCI, I'd most definitely take CSCI 1902 which is also required for admission into the majors. And on top of all that, I don't have room for two out of CSCI 1902, MATH 1272, and CSCI 2011 in the fall semester, either. *bangs head on desk*
Oh, thank God... 1902 doesn't fit with the physics lab! So, MATH 1272 it is.
- MATH 1272 Calculus II (4 cr.) / M-F, some time (06/12 - 08/04)

I'll let whether I take LING or MATH fall to whether I can get in to LING.

Fall:
- LING 3101W: Languages of the World (3 cr. - International Perspect Theme, Social Science Core, Writing Intensive), TAUGHT BY PROF. STENSON WHOSE CLASS I HAVE NEVER TAKEN/FAILED! / Tu Th 2:30 - 3:45 [16555]
- JPN 3031/4005: Third Year Japanese (4/3 cr.) / some section... ^^;
- ALL 3433W: Traditional Japanese Literature in Translation (3 cr. - Literature Core, Writing Intensive) / W 11:15-12:05, F 10:10-12:05 [25194]
- blah... some other crap (maybe CSCI 1902?) - I still have two weeks before I need to register for fall so I can put this off until later

8 A.M. registration (and dinner), here I come!
