the list of subjects

i have a list of subjects i'm currently looking at. they are for my next session(semester). i'm available to choose one(other slots have required subjects to be filled). now i'll just have to boil down and filter out those i'm not eligible to take (take Human Computer Interface for example!) and the less desirable ones.

They all have to be available in Spring(meaning this July onwards) and are listed in no order:-

• Human Computer Interface - apparently i can't study this (even though i already did in poly) because i did not learn the CSCI204 (C family & Unix). sheesh.
  
• Interfacing and Real Time Programming - i think i will die attempting this subject. it's got all sorts of I/O handling and interrupts, rather low level.
  
• Organisation of Programming Languages - it seems that i can't attempt this subject as it is not reflected in my available subjects list. the scope sounds crappy but rather uninteresting anyway.
  
• Network Security - actually this sounds interesting. rather hardcore physical networking stuff but seems interesting nevertheless. oh and i'm not eligible. it requires me to take another subject called "Computer Security" as well.
  
• World Wide Networking - jason will be taking this subject. if i take means we'll be having another same subject again muahaha... it appears to be rather relevant to web development, although i had comments about it being crappy. on the other hand, it seems entirely up to the instructor to slack or crack us.
  
• Exploiting Collaborative Technologies - certain parts of the scope seems crappy. other parts seem quite fun and interesting. and the title of the subject rolls off the tongue quite nicely. makes for another long worded subject i might have studied...
  

The above were 300-level subjects. There are also a few 200-level (meaning year 2) subjects that may catch my fancy.

• 3D Modelling and Animation - unfortunately this was what was stated as well: "Results will NOT be declared until end Summer 2006, so this subject is not suitable for anyone wishing to graduate in December 2005"... so unless i can spare the time to wait for my degree until next June... i can probably forget about doing this subject.
  
• Distributed Systems - seems like something that is low-level technical stuff. of course the thought of using Linux makes me shift uncomfortably in my seat. but that should not be an issue.
  

And also i'm speculating... should i (touch wood) not make it for Database Design and Implementation, would i be able to apply to study this single subject in SIM and subsequently graduate there. =_= mundane as it may sound, it sounds better than having to stay in Australia for another half a year for the sake of studying ONE subject. I'm just preparing contingencies... :(

so basically i'm left with very little choices. sighsssssssss

will continue on this post when i feel like it.
