Hmm... well, I have seven different breadth requirement classes plus a lot of math grad courses I have to take (and an honors course to retake for GPA purposes), so focusing gets pretty important.

American cultures requirement - human diversity (also my bio class)
Philosophy and values - mathematical logic
Behavioral sciences - game theory (via economics department)
Physical sciences - chemistry
Arts - Probably creative writing.  I hate literature courses.
Large language requirement - a few French courses
Biological sciences - Human diversity
History - history of mathematics
Mini-language requirement - Japanese in high school

“Anybody need to store something in the cold?” was the call. “Well,” I said, “we’ve got a couple of liters of diazomethane solution.” “That’s not very funny,” he said. “That’s because it’s not a joke”, I replied, and we moved to the front of the line.

EDIT:

"So, what’s the stupidest way to handle the stuff? That’s the story told to me by a colleague. He attests that when he was in grad school, he looked across the hall to see someone involved in making a goodly amount of diazomethane – in a large standard ground-glass-joint apparatus. Oh, dear. How the guy was going to get his collection flask off without running the risk of grenading everything, that was the question. As my friend watched in disbelief, the guy reached up to just twist the darn thing right off. . .and it was stuck. A frozen joint – just the perfect time for it. (This is the point where the audience for this story began to bury their heads in their hands).

My colleague swears that he then watched this maniac pick up a propane torch to sweat the joint loose. I believe that someone may have stopped him in time, but I think the teller of this tale decided to adjourn for lunch at some distant location right around then, so I can’t vouch for the outcome. But if anyone has a more drooling, slack-jawed approach to an ether solution of diazomethane than running a propane torch over it, I’d like to know what it is. Short of maybe using it as an HPLC solvent, I’m out of ideas."

I dunno, you guys have survived Thomas the tank engine, golems, zombies, nuclear explosions, laser whales, and being on the same team as ragnarock.  I don't think something as tame as a world ending rain of lava will even slow you guys down.

Finally working on the Japanese project that was due, oh, a week ago from yesterday.
That's what's awesome about Sensei, if you want to turn in something late, you don't get marked down, you just have to give it directly to him.

I've had a pit in my stomach for several weeks now, about the possibility that my best friend may be in jail.  As much as I dreaded confronting the possibility, I just checked a few online government databases to see if he was in any county or state lockup he'd likely be in, and found no record of him.  While there are still a few other places to check (which don't have useful websites), at least I didn't confirm any fears there.

That's why renaming him DOUCHE was always so much fun.  What a bratty little turd that guy was.

Seems like a lot... I mean, here, once you get to university, you do one subject and one subject only.

Even though I've heard that the British university system works different from elsewhere, a quick check at cambridge study plans shows that there is, indeed, more than one subject in most of them...
