the pre-cs2103 saga

As i said earlierr on, i was about to register for cs2103 yesterday. I logged into the system which was very similiar in interface to cors(but not cors). It was weird that there were no modules for me under the 'regular' title. And in fact, cs2103 appeared when i chose 'breadth[' from the drop down menu! But i didn't realise this mistake at first and just chose the module and tried to get it. This was when another problem occured. The system didn't recognise tha ti had satisfied the pre-requisites of the module! So, there i was, on my way to school, calling up the admin manager fo the school of computing. She claimed that that have to get to my own faculty to tell them to get the registrar;s office to recognise that i had indeed satisfied the pre-reqs.
But when i finally went down intot he office of ECE to talk to them about it, they told me that a girl had just came in with the same problem.  The lady told me that i should go to the registrar;s office myself but later gave me a name in SoC to contact by e-mail. So, i sent this person an e-mail, but there was no reply for several hours. Now remember that i was in quite a hurry, since the first round lasts only for <2days. 
So, i went down to the registrar's office myself and for those who have been there before, it would have been obvious that it is not a 'walk-in' kinda place. I was lucky that it was the time for the freshmen to go into this place to submit their acceptance letter (i helped eve do tt in the morning! :) This meant that the door was unlocked for everyone! I went in, and after talking to the person in-charge of cors, i found out that he really wanted to help me (i'm yet to thank him and i should!) 
I sent him a detailed mail about what heppened and he sent it to the relavant ppl. And boom! it was okay in the morning! YaY! And now i've got the module! hahahh! went down to central library to slack and borrow a book for it.
