I’ve been hitting the snooze bar every time my alarm rings since 10:20am!
I think I might have set a new personal record of SNOOZE whacks!!
now that's what I call "broken sleep".

4:24pm @ FDU conference room
EGAD! Last day for new registrations was Jan 30th!(5th day of classes)....4 days ago.
I just got some dude to sign my registration form...I think he has some authority needed for my last chance...which is Feb 6th "with permission".
Just attended my first 2 classes...the 1st one doesn't look too rough...the 2nd one looks nice except for one line in the syllabus "...and complete a monitored work experience of approximately 400 hours during summer recess."
That's a lot of work for 1 credit! I gotta find out more (since I came in late)...I think I might get paid for that work too....maybe. Maybe The 400 hour thing isn't mandatory for the 1 credit. Perhaps that's something simply EARNED for people who complete these 2 courses. I'll keep you uPDAted.
Both classes are Hospitality/tourism/hotel/restaurant/management courses. I have NO interest in that, BUT I like what the courses will teach, and develop in me.
So yeah, despite starting attending classes, I still haven't registered yet. Gotta hand in that form with the
Tuition. Hope that works out.Of coarse I left my wallet home today!
....not like I'm the one paying, but the check is in there.
Last night I got to eat a Broccoli Canzone @ Jeepers!!! =P YUM! I sure miss having them! Last semester, the dude stopped making spinach & broccoli calzones! Glad that stint is over! Oh yeah, don't forget the marinara sauce cups , garlic powder & grated cheese! What's a spinach or broccoli calzone without them???
=)
Sad news. I got 10am classes again! Monday-Friday! I like.....NEED to have that consistency of starting my day with a class the same time each day...BUT NOT 10AM!!
I was late for my 10AM classes like 92% of the time last semester... and missed like 4% of the classes...maybe more.
...and the few times I made it on time for class...several of those few was because I stayed on campus overnight. I really should dorm. That would solve 1 major problem ....well a few for me.
Gretchen, See...I'm still writing my journal! Thanks for asking! I'll post it online before the end of the month.
...............4:54pm....woah...I just fell asleep there holding my stylus & PDA.
Well I'll get back to you later...got some stuff to do now!

that was interesting
I just attended a little "Successful Gant Writing Workshop"
that I saw listed in "Inside FDU" I was one of the first there, as they were just setting up. Little by little a few people showed up in business attire....then I noticed the 20+ name tags waiting for people, and how each one showed a position of a department @ FDU.
So before I knew it I was feeling a little out of place
It turned out to be a faculty & staff meeting to learn how to request grants, and gifts fro foundations & corporations to sponsor various things throughout FDU.
It was one of those meetings, had I walked in late they'd probably say I wasn't allowed there, but since I showed up early, they just greeted me and said I could stay.
Glad I did! I took notes & learned a buncha stuff. I found this knowledge practical in a few ways besides the intended.

so I did it! I finally registered for classes! Even I doubted I could do it. I had to get 7 signatures to register since I was doing it the 2nd week of classes. One of the signatures was a permitted forgery by a secretary. Another looks like a scribble in a circle.
Since you asked, I got 14 credits:
Social Psyc, Child Development, Chinese Language through Literature, The American Congress, Career Orientation and Professional Development in the Hospitality Industry, Professional Skills Development: Work Experience Lab.
The last 2 are the classes I mentioned earlier.
I spoke with the professor about those 2 classes, and my objectives, so now I'm more confident that I picked the right classes for me. ...maybe like 77% convinced.
Understanding how I'm just doing this as an elective, she said we could think of alternative options other than the 400 hours of work, for me to get the credit. She mentioned writing a paper relevant to my future career goals....but I think I'd rather work 400 hours than write a paper!
......
Hey Charles! Welcome to my Tabulas!
…….
Let's see, what else should you know?
Dad just got the Car fixed...looks almost like new.
Oh yea, for about 2 weeks now, my PDA's screen has been busted. IT SUCKS! The PDA operates perfectly, but since 2 Sundays ago, the screen doesn't display anything but possibly some lines, and sometimes not even that. Yes I've been typing in my PDA for the past 2 weeks without seeing what I'm typing. That sure increases the typos I gotta fix....or you gotta deal with.
Fortunately I can still see the display when I almost shut the PDA closed. So when I need to see something, I turn on the backlight, then crack open the PDA 2" or less. I Hope that keeps working. I either gotta get this fixed or replaced.
As far as I can tell, this is probably a result of the PDA's impact in the car accident...and the stress put on it when I was trying to re-rail it....and the few times I dropped it...and the times I threw it on my bed....and when it whacks the Toilet bowl as I sit down with it in my back pants packet.
I wish it were made like Rubbermaid®.
My courses have 10 texts assigned to them Only 3 are available in the book store.
3 I'm not sure if the professor wants us to buy them.
2 of those 3 are the ones available.
As of today I have 1 textbook!
3 I'll pick up from my public library, and 3 are in transit from Barns & Noble.com.
I've gone longer without texts in past semesters.
Apparently the bookstore under-ordered a lot of books this semester because when they get stuck with books, they loose $. So now there's a great book shortage for the students instead of surplus for the store.
I've heard fault placed on the students for purchasing their books from places besides the bookstore. Well now we don't have a choice! DUH!

Hey Nyssa! I'll catch your show once in a while! Fret not!
heh heh
---------------------
Lately I find myself daydreaming more. I think it's directly associated with my writing in my Intuition Journal less. I'm not daydreaming as much as I used to...and I still appreciate daydreams...don't get me wrong. But I've daydreamed way too much over the years, and it's time I start doing stuff and living my dreams...and noting my ideas in the journal for further development later.
Making use of the daydreams.
YES, and if I'm daydreaming, that means I'm not doing my homework or business....but that means I'm possibly thinking new ideas!!!

why do I feel so rushed? Is it the hard seats and fast paced music?
I'm in a Taco Bell Right now! Very glad to be here, but I feel an odd feeling to stuff a burrito down the hatch and leave without even chewing.
relax seed! relax!
In class today it was discussed how McDonalds sells TIME...NOT food! ...how restaurants use different things to keep their customers no more than half hour. Could Taco Bell do the same?
Well it's been a long day for me.
Started it yesterday actually! Didn’t really sleep more than a few minutes last night (this morning)...well I dozed off a buncha ties in my morning & evening classes too.
More importantly, I got to be on the premiere Morning Q Radio how! Whoda thought!?!?! I was even early for my morning class!
‘The Morning Q’ show was pretty cool. It got a few things to be hammered out, and it’ll be a swell show! Well It's swell already, We Even had a listener, Howard Stern Stopped by for a few minutes, and best of all, Gwetchie gathered us munchies!!!!
THANKS AGAIN for the chocolate chunk muffin!!!!
In other news I just attended my first Political Science: The American Congress class! It seemed quite exciting whenever I managed to stay awake! I'm still a little confused how we got stuck with 435 representatives
...and I find the Electoral College system quite disturbing...but hopefully that'll get reformed when Ralph Nader gets elected! Kinda whacked how many votes are held by 4 states...and that if a slight majority of the people vote 1 way, it's as if 100% voted that way.
Honestly It’s quite depressing....till u remember that change is still possible....but ONLY from a grassroots movement....it can happen...it can happen in 2004! It's really up to us....the kids who don't vote! It really is! We've been given power to quit complaining & make a difference....spread the word!
well it's 12:06am now.
guess I'll head home.
I know I'm gonna be stopping here more often! How cool is that: for $3.16, I can get almost full! 1 bean burrito & a 7 Layer burrito!
FOOOOOOOOOD!!!!! 
lata!
