Hasta La Victoria Siempre

Long and short of it:
Got screwed out of bursery because of not noticing a 3 credit course split (expected value = $2,667.40). Was suddenly not eligible for student loan because of being short these 1.5 credits that apply to second term instead of first. Add/Drop date was tuesday, the day after I found out about this. Had to make decision whether to add one course in the third week (possibly even without attending the class before making the decision) or drop two and go to work full-time (I need Honours Seminar, but not technically the other two). Both decisions suck, and I'm grossly oversimplifying. There were alot of other factors that went into the decision, but suffice it to say I needed to make that decision (an incredily complex one with lots of long term ramifications) before the next day (Tuesday, when I would have to put into action that decision).
The end result? Taking MUSC 328 World Music Cultures, which I would never have thought of without Beth's excellent guidance. I think I definately made the right decision as it seems that there is a sliver of a chance that I can recover the bursery, even though I technically am not eligible because of not getting electronic verification of my courses by the 15th.
Anyways, good now, got lots to do (like a test for MUSC on Thursday, aieee). Just was a harrowing 36 hour period (decision to implementation).
