I don't understand the meaning of ならん in this sentence:
早く日曜日にならんかな
Does ならん come from ならぶ? Or come from なる? How it's conjugated? What's that ん in ならん...?

The word is nar-an, a negated form of the verb なる. The standard negation of the verb may be known to you as ならない. The utterance you ask about can be rephrased as 早く日曜日にならないかな.
