What to do when you've got nothing to do... sign up for more classes!

Mmm... it was nice to sleep in today. I didn't have class until 5 this evening, so I was able to sleep in a bit. I woke around 9, checked my email, then went back to bed til about 12:30. My roomie came and went during her lunch break and I didn't bother to get up .

But yeah, since I had really nothing to do til class started, I checked my mail for the first time. I love my box number. It's the same box number my mom had back in NJ, so it's really convienant to remember. Also the combination is very similar to that of my box back at BJ. The only thing about it is that my box is pretty much out of reach. I can touch the combination dial, but there's no way I can see the numbers. I have to step on a chair to check my mail.. heh. Well, whatever it takes. I can't wait to get my refund check... That'll def. help with some of the concerns I have with money issues. Even though I know the money isn't tech. "mine," I do have need for it.

I signed up for an alternative medicine class. Basically the only requirement is that you attend 1 class (includes 2 workshops) once a term for 3 terms. I think it's only 1 credit, but it's free and it seems interesting and infomative. I signed up for the Reflextology and Osteopathy workshops, though I wanted to sign up for Accupressure rather than Osteopathy, but that workshop was full. I may try to just slip into the class anyway, but I'm not sure if I'll get credit for it if I don't sign up for it... oh well, guess I'll figure it out when the time comes.

I'm also going to be taking a CPR class this Sat. My CPR cert. expired this past spring/summer (either in March or May) so I'm hoping I can still just take the Fast Track and skip most of the class hours, since it's supposed to take all day.

I'm going to miss these days of not having to do anything. heh. I should use this time to like familiarize myself with the bus routes and how to get to the markets and such... Maybe I'll actually visit the black sand beach sometime during this "free" time. It's right behind campus and supposedly fairly accessible. Man, I've never been much of a beach person... mainly because I haven't had much of a chance to go to the beach, but it's nice here. And not so crowded, a def plus. So yeah... If it weren't for my paranoia of sharks from watching too many movies and reading too many books, I'll prob go all out and see how far I can swim and such.. but alas, I've always got this twinge of nervousness when I go out in the water.
