School: Part II.

So school has begun once again and everyday is a new adventure. Today I was dropped from a class I was taking after add/drop period had ended. After finding this out I called my faculty and asked if I could add another course, the man responded with "course code" when I asked what he meant he got mad and hung up on me! ha ha. Not knowing what to do I decided to hop on the bus and went to campus to figure out what I could do. As I walked into my faculty's office I of course immediately saw the rude bald man but was directed to talk to someone else. The lady I was told to talk to told me I not only had to get the faculty's signature, but that I had to go get the teacher's signature. As I walked out I thought of how many days it was going to take to track down the teacher, but as I walked up stairs he happened to be there and immediately added me to his course. This in all took about ten minutes, which makes me think that I'm not only starting to navigate through the HKU campus better, but I have figured proactive ways in which I can solve problems that seemed so difficult when I first arrived (or it may just be that I got really lucky and I will in fact continue to struggle to accomplish even the most menial tasks! I for some reason want to believe my first reason though) :)
