Today’s classes went really well with one major exception. The exception being that in one of the courses, the professor randomly assigns groups for the projects. And the groups change. It was stated that this is how it is in the real world. While there is some truth in that, it is difficult enough managing groups in four other classes with few if any overlapping members. Scheduling itself is a nightmare at times. I’m not having any part of the random group thing so that puts me back in the auction. And it means that I’m taking another book back. I originally spent $419 at the campus bookstore; now it looks like that comes only to $50 and change.
I managed to get my bids in before 5pm, which is the cutoff when a round ends, so I found out results immediately. I was going after really unpopular classes anyway so I knew I’d probably win both of them. I’ve been using the rest of today and will think about the choice again tomorrow on which of the two to keep and which to sell back. It’s a tough decision because I actually was taking one of the courses last Spring but chose to drop it because the workload was too heavy. The other course, well, I’d rather not take it and the professor is quite unpopular.
