Very exciting. Harrowing. I was prepared, ready, at 8:49. I had my courses selected. I was constantly refreshing my registration status. 9:00 on the dot, registration was freed. I hit the button! Nothing went ahead! Can't access database! Agh. Try again. Okay - three classes. Try again one more, one full! Already! It's not even 9:01. Okay, think fast, replacement courses, revert to other worklist. Okay, got it. Chosen. Registered. Done. Phew.

Can I just complain that UBC makes registering very hard? There are about five different documents you have to cross-reference - exam schedules, course descriptions, course schedules, annotated course schedules. It's totally stupid. And personally, I think it's ridiculous that they will not allow you to take two courses if the exams conflict. I mean couldn't they make arrangements to accommodate? I guess they're worried about cheating, but we're all supposed to be lawyers right? How are we supposed to learn professional responsibility if we're treated like children? Lots of schools have honour codes at exam time - surely UBC could do something similar. Besides, with the curve, even the most unethical person isn't going to find a lot of people willing to share - there's a certain degree of self-interest at play! Okay, end rant.

So here's the course list:
Tax I
Penal Policy
Advanced Crim Procedure
Evidence
Administrative Law!

Very excited about the seminar on penal policy. [Insert homonym joke here.] Corrections is a major area of interest for me and was a big reason I wanted to go to law school.
