12:07: Signed up for French class. Hit "Add".
12:14: Page still loading. Rrrgh.

More, no doubt, to follow.

The cat is currently sitting on her hind legs at the bottom of my bed, with her front paws hanging over the baseboard. It is adorable, and I must rub her. Now I have hair stuck to my nose, though.

12:23: ARGH WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'VE BEEN BUMPED FROM THE SERVER? THIS MEANS I LOST MY FRENCH SPOT!
12:24: And now even the page that tells me I can't get in right now because there are too many students isn't loading. I will kill it. Kill it dead.

I have a room! It's small, but there's a common room, and I'm not planning on spending all my time in my room. The master bedroom is much larger, but the girl who my mum heard about the house from in the first place already signed the lease for it, so I'm out of luck there. It's a very nice house--the previous owner got it from her parents, who had built it. All hardwood floored and everything. Got to buy a bed for it, though. I might get one of those bunks that you can put a desk and stuff underneath, to save space.

Managed to get into German, French, and one second-year linguistics course (the development of Indo-European languages). The other two were full, so I've got three third-year courses instead--syntax, semantics, and morphology. With any luck they will not be too reliant on second-year courses, but since only the introductory linguistics classes were required, they shouldn't be. However, I'm going to keep checking to see if either of the second-year courses opens up before start of term. I've also got a bird course recommended by my previous roommate and a spare, which I tentatively filled in with Mohawk before remembering that I could try for the third-year courses. It's still there, but something else will probably take the space.

Sushi today! I liked it, but mum was disappointed, which makes me feel bad. Salmon maki is omnomnom, as always.
