yeah, i wouldn't worry about it. certain veggies can turn your pee yellow as well, but it generally just means dehydration. i always know that i haven't had enough water when my pee is really yellow - I always aim for as clear as possible.
I always pee really super yellow if I have my iron supplements. Have you been eating a lot of leafy greens and red meat? Both of those items contain a lot of iron.
You really should drink more. Your pee should be, at the most, a light lemon yellow. You should drink around 64oz of water a day. It is DIFFICULT, but possible. You might find yourself feeling better in other ways. Many people mistake dehydration for hunger!
VERY true. I have to wrestle with my mind to "check" my stomach when I feel hungry shortly after a meal, then I recognize my stomach feels full and what I really want is water. It's a very weird feeling, haha.
When you take large amounts of certain vitamins, it will turn your urine neon yellows/oranges. It just means that your body has absorbed all it needs and is peeing out the excess.

My general uneducated advice would be to up your water intake.
