(4 mtgs) A TUE, APR 12-MAY 3 7-9 PM Allan Mouna Photomaster AR20201 $89 It seems I just missed getting into section 2 of the beginning class. :P But! Here's a class on their online course system that doesn't require me to have anything more than I already own, and I don't have to go to classes ;D (Look at this other online offering...and here are some business courses...)
There are some other interesting classes, like:

Brooke mentioned this one to me before. Unfortunately it takes place at the same time as bellydance class (assuming, of course, that I ever decide to attend bellydance class):

(4 mtgs) C M/W, FEB 28-MAR 9 6:30-8:30 PM Susan Speir Galloway Hall 215 CO60301 $95 .8 CEUs but it seems a little too basic. Maybe their online course would be best.
And, of course, no list of classes I'm interested in taking would be complete without these:

The stained glass class is AWESOME; I took it last year. I thought you knew that, Heather? If you'd be interested in taking it, I'd GLADLY take it again. :) Also, The financial class is a GOOD one, Jim Cook is my mother's and my financial advisor at Merrill Lynch downtown. :) SUPER nice guy, went to high school with my mom. I've been thinking about taking that class, so I'd feel more secure doing some online trading stuff.

I would LOVE to take Arabic 11. It would help me understand what I'm actually dancing to! :D Plus, if it sthe same teacher they had two years ago, he's a super sweet guy.
Brooke, I may have, but I tend to forget stuff ;> And yes, I am interested in taking it, but it's not a high priority like some of the other things might be (e.g., the financial class, or a business course, or Arabic).
Mari, if we can figure out the next time it's available, you and I should sign up together :)
