Cheers to new beginnings...

I start Fall quarter at college today. It's raining...perfect pacific northwest weather lol
I remember two years ago when I lived a bit north of where I am now....I started college there as well. Culinary Arts. I had my chef uniform, my chef shoes, my baking supplies....when I first walked into that huge baking kitchen...I was so happy to be there. Of course, I was the oldest person there...even older that the chef teachers but that was ok. I was just one of the students to them and that was great. I really enjoyed that quarter because it was baking. I learned so much and had so much fun. The next quarter was in the regular kitchen and was a lot more difficult. Still, I have very fond memories of my time there.

Now I take a different direction. I decided the kitchen part of Culinary Arts wasn't for me and they didn't offer just a baking tract. Today I start classes towards an Art Degree. I've actually never taken art classes after high school....which was another lifetime ago lol I wanted to take 4 art classes but my advisor said she's never seen an art student be able to handle more than 2...so I had to drop Sculpture and Drawing...I will take them next quarter. Now, I have 2 Dimensional Design, Intro to Interior Design and Ceramics. I got the supply kit for the 2 Dimensional Design class yesterday. I have opted to hitch a ride to school with my , on his way to work, so I'll be at the college a couple of hours early. I will take my little camera and explore the campus a little, find out where the<b> library </font></b>is, get a map for the area, get a second coffee lol...
I have to take three buses home but I don't mind that. When I lived up north, I took the bus everywhere. It's a little scary at first, not knowing where the buses are, what the route is like, where to go to connect up with the next bus, etc. But it only takes a few days and it's fine. Even in the rain

I wish you all a great Monday. Make the most of it. Every minute we have, we don't get again. It's up to each of us to decide how we are going to spend our minutes in this life.

hope you do well and get what you want from the classes. I'm taking a class this semester too.

I love learning new stuff, at least when it's stuff I'm interested in, not required courses like US history, but even that was interesting I just don't remember dates well...
