Final Registration

This morning I registered for my last semester of classes, which is sort of ridiculous. Being a senior, there was no pressure to get into classes before they filled up, as I get to register first. Regardless, I woke up bright and early, for tradition's sake (8:00 a.m.!) and registered as I had each time previous to this. As usual, I am excited about my schedule. Here are the classes I will be taking:

• Introduction to Screen Writing - According to its description online, this class seems to focus both on theory and the application of that theory. We're going to have to watch some films, which is exciting to me, and will complete a full first draft of a screenplay by the semester's end. Fun! Meets Mondays from 6 to 9.
  
  
• Creative Writing: Fiction - A workshop-format class for short- and long-form fiction. Students give and receive criticism. Rumor has it that there will be six writing assignments over the course of the semester. Credit/no credit. Meets Thursdays from 2:50 to 5:50.
  
  
• Lawyers and Politics - Government seminar looking at the role lawyers play in American politics. This is the class that will complete my requirements for graduation. Meets Mondays and Thursdays from 1:25 to 2:40.
  
  
• Environmental Law - "A survey course in environmental law, with special emphasis placed on the practical skills neccesary to understand and apply environmental laws and regulations." This class is cross-registered in the Environmental Science and Policy; Government; and International Development, Community, and Environment departments. Meets Mondays from 9 to 11:50.
  

So once again I will have Tuesdays and Fridays off, something that I have been enjoying this semester. The biggest change in my schedule will be waking up for a 9:00 class, which I'll have on Wednesdays. I think that it will make me feel like less of a lazy-bum, though, so I'm seeing it as a good thing.
