Money Dream and First day of School

Money and first day of school
Note: This entry is for 2/2/09

Last night I dreamt I found a black backpack lying around with a shitload of money.
there were a few hundred dollar bills and one bill for $245,000 O_o which I was
skeptical about being real. I kept askign people "does this kind of bill even
exist?" and they kept trying to assure me it does. However, when I held the bill
to the light I discovered it was a counterfeit as the back looked like those
receipts you get from the bank or the papers you fill out when you're making a deposit.
I was so bummed!

My first day of school rocked! I only have 2 classes each day in the mornings and the rest of the day
to do pretty much whatever I want. My first class was Fundamentals of music theory and I was really
excited to see that a lot of people I knew were taking it with me. The teacher's a Chinese dude
named J Lin, and I'll be honest and say he's as funny as he is handsome (which is quite). The cool
thing is he's also my teacher for the performance class! I'm really looking forward to both, more
than before, cuz he's just that cool. Second class was piano, which I share with two students
who are also in my fundamentals class and were in my piano class last semester as well. The class
was overflowing with students, so much that not everybody had chairs! Hella people on the waiting list,
but a lot of people didn't show up either. We were warned to sign up for classes early and I signed up
the very first chance I was given. The teacher did something really interesting at the end of going
over the syllabus where she left the room and had those of us who'd taken her class before make
our presence known to the newer students and we'd answer the questions they have about the class.
I was shy about it and didn't actually raise my hand...neither did my classmate Alex, which meant that
Matt (one out of 2 who raised their hands) ended up answering questions. There were only 3, still I felt
a bit guilty for not wanting to participate. I was surpirsed at how many people from the previous
semester weren't returning to take the next course! Though there's a possiblity they're taking it with
someone else and/or on a different day. *shrug*

Went to the mall to buy some fabric so I can make a vest for Valentine's Day. Yeah, I'm gonna do it!
Dunno if I want to wear pants or a skirt with it though....if I could wear a skirt I want to make
a short one, but then I wouldn't be able to wear it to work...so maybe I'll make pants with
skirt flaps at the top... *shrug* I want to add lace when I get a chance but the good stuff is
expensive, so we'll see. If it weren't for the fact that my voice teacher is not making me have
lessons this week, I wouldn't have decided to buy any fabric, but it was half off and in the end
totaled to a little over $6, which isn't bad at all. I'll probably get down to business tomorrow.
Which reminds me, I should also buy my book for the theory class. I'm so happy I only have one book
to buy this semester (at about $30)! Hooray for classes with no books and those that let you use the
same book as the previous semester but the latter half! Hung out with Mary (a co-worker) for a while
sine she was going to take her break. We walked over to the Burger King across the street and she
paid for me. I sometimes worry I'm going to end up taking advantage of her kindness someday, even
though she's always making the offers and I'm not asking her to get me these things.

I'm not eating right at all. Need more veggies and fruits in my life. I've discovered I rather
like oranges now...so I might go out and buy those and apples. As for veggies, not sure what I'd
want...but perhaps I should start buying packs of salad...but it's probably a lot healthier
to buy the ingredients raw and make my own. I've eaten so much fast food in the past...2 weeks...
and I think it's catching up with me now.

Went over to Lonny's for the weekly L word watch. OMG he brought me back candy from Vancouver ! XD It's like eating pure sugar, but it's maple sugar! So yummy! Thanks again, Lonny! I wonder if I can buy these online somewhere...
