will or shall

good morning,
winter is on its way. today is the best day ever.  I want a bass, a (der) rickenbacher, a banjo, and a drum set in my apt.  just throwing that out there.  It shall happen. (imperative voice....side note: I always thought that "will" and "shall" were confused often.  I understand it this way: you use "shall" for the first person, i.e. I shall..., we shall..., when using the future tense, and "will" for the 2nd and 3rd person for the future tense. However when will is used in the first person, and shall in the 2nd or 3rd person then they have the force of the imperative voice, e.g. the boy shall go to school today! (imperative)...I will do it! (imperative...if there was such a thing as first person imperative...).ANYWAY, besides that grammar tangent, monday's aren't all that bad, I usually get a good night sleep sunday night and cause i only work till 6 monday..and get to sleep in on Tuesday,...unless some stroke comes in at 5:59 and bothers me. I just want to say that I love Khan Academy, I've been a huge fan of that site for over two years now.  If you need to work on calculus or get basic chem, physics, or bio it's really the model of education that will make higher institutions of learning obsolete someday.  Sal is so clear in his explanations too.  I'm itchin to go somewhere new. I want to go to the art institute, maybe Thursday or Friday. I recorded a song last night too, but here is my Music playlist from yesterday:
Wings - band on the run
Avett Bros - I and you and love
Harry Nilsson - Pussy Cats
Trampled by Turtles -  ?
Bon Iver - ?
Ambulance LTD - ?
John Mayer - Continuum
Emily Cole - Lyon demos and christmas sheet music
Tom waits - Real Gone
Ravel - Bolero
Portugal. The man - Waiter: "you Vultures!"
