Today was the start of official business at school.  Orientation was 2 hours of my morning.  Lots of information that was somewhat relevant.  The lines were too long to wait for a student card or bus pass, so I'll avoid that as long as I can.
  My program consultation and TA meeting were at the same time today, I figured that I could do the first quickly and then make it to the meeting.  The consultation was only 15-20 minutes, but by the time I got to the meeting, I was left with the only 4 remaining teaching slots-
      I am teaching sight singing to second year undergrad students.  We are using the same textbook as I did for Basic Skills.
        -9:30am Mon, wed and fri and then another slot on friday... Yuck.. I don't like mornings.
I had intended to be so efficient with registering and getting paperwork filled out, but I completely forgot.  I need to get papers signed for Manitoba Student Loan and the Manitoba Arts Council bursary.  Those two are the bulk of my funding for the year, so I need to get on that ASAP.  It will still be 2 weeks before I even get the cheque/money.  My funds are already starting to dwindle, so that is kinda  priority.
  I don't have classes or anything tomorrow, so I will get all my paperwork done and student card and bus pass.   Aside from a meeting with my composition prof, I don't really have anything until next week.  I start teaching my class before I actually take my own classes... haha
    It was a rather social day for me.  After the TA meeting, I should have remembered to get my forms signed, but I got distracted by people and went to a welcome back little get together thingy at one of the singer's apartments.  Then we went to a music grad student thing at the grad bar on campus.  I hung out with all of the 5 people in the MMus Composition program.  They are super nice and really friendly.  We are going to have a composer night next week, so things are starting off well already!
I'm excited to see my friend Brandy play a concert.  I looked it up and it's only 2 blocks from my apartment so I can just walk over.  That is friday night after my composition teacher meeting.

I am excessively commenting on your facebook and blog tonight.
You may say it is because I am excessive.
Or you may say it is because I miss you lots.
A little of both is about right :)
everything sounds like it is going really great! Congrats!
