who said first years cant create a timetable
Nobody said first year students can't create timetables.
In fact, no undergrad student can create a timetable completely. You could get a more reasonable timetable, but you do not have the ability to create one.
Although the timetabling guys did basically ask me which tutorials I wanted to attend, for certain subjects, after they saw my load for semester 2 last year. But most of the classes had only one timeslot anyway.
Hopefully this year without overloading, I can try to use the excuse of some TSP project to get the timetable of choice. Although most of the classes are structured that there are only two timetables that I can have without clashes, and both satisfy my needs.
Ironically, none of the subjects I'm thinking of doing so far have classes on Friday. So it looks like I will get a day off, although I do get two very packed days and an additional packed day every second week. I suppose it was even worse last year, except for the fact that I didn't bother to turn up to a lot of the classes anyway. But I do prefer spaced out days to hang around with friends during breaks. Unless everyone has Friday off.
