Computer Networks

You may or may not know that I have had a difficult time getting the classes I want next quarter. Because of where I am in the curriculum, I am extremely limited in the computer science classes I can take. I am taking CSSE230, which is Fundamentals of Software Development III. The only other class I can take is Computer Networks. Of course this class was full before I could get in. I am also taking Probability and Statistics, a required math course, and a humanities elective. What else could I take? There really wasn't anything else, though I eventually worked my way into Linear Algebra, even though after last quarter I swore I would never take two math classes the same semester. I did however talk to the teacher of the Computer Networks class and he put me on the waiting list.

Yesterday I got an email from him saying a spot opened up and it was mine. I quickly marched down to the registrar's office and signed up. The only problem is that I now have 5 straight hours of class. That is from 10:50am-3:20pm. I would miss lunch entirely. Well I talked to a friend of mine who I knew was in the same class, but in the hour before and he decided it would work better for him to take it during the hour I was. So we are going to switch sections tomorrow.

I am excited I am taking networking instead of linear algebra. I'll have to see how much work it is along with CS230. I haven't had two CS classes the same quarter yet.
