Firstly, I thought this was pretty awesome: http://www.hcn.zaq.ne.jp/cabic508/rsf/

With that taken care of, life goes on. I took up a new course at the university based soley on the fact that it fit into my schedule well, and I'm hoping I won't end up regretting it. On the other hand, spending only 3 instead of 5 days a week attending lectures is all kinds of good, so maybe it really is worth it.
