School. Woot!!!

amazingly enough, i'm almost back into the swing of going to class. i have already gone to all of today's, and gotten a couple hours of practice in. and guess what?? i got 8 hours of sleep last night. is that crazy, or what?? i didn't go running, as i had inteneded, but i did eat breakfast, get another book at the bookstore, have an good quiet time, and get to class early. tomorrow i'm going to hopefully get the jogging part going.

there is one unfortunate occurrence. for the last few months (since the end of the spring when i signed up for classes) i've been under the dilution that i was signed up for violin lessons. last night when i was rewriting my schedule in the most convenient format for me to keep up with, i realized that i am not signed up for said course at all! this was quite a shock since i was supposed to be getting my lesson time already, and had plans to take them full time. however, that wasn't part of my 17 hours. i still have that many, i just have one fewer class than i thought. so bleh. we've talked about a bunch of things. i may do some accompanying in exchange for lessons.

i best get off here and get back to work. there are definitely not going to be enough hours in the day.
