One day down....

So first day of orientation wasn't too bad. How can it be bad when the presenter while discussing dress code makes reference to "ho stamps" and then clarifies that it's the tattoo on the lower back! :) (I think I like the other moniker of "tramp stamp" better.)

I wonder what new thing I'll learn tomorrow...

First Day of "School"

Tomorrow is the first day of a week long orientation for my grad school program and I definitely feel like I'm back in elementary school. I just picked out my outfit and have it all set out, including shoes (mainly because there is a slim chance I might go workout before hand, but my step class is canceled for the week and I don't think I'll be motivated enough to go just "run" on an elliptical at 6:30 in the morning). I also have my school bag packed. I panicked when I thought I didn't have an appropriate bag! I have a backpack- but we have to be in professional dress tomorrow - and a little blue and gray Jansen backpack just doesn't scream professional (neither does the corduroy messenger bag I found in the closet, but it's closer). Sigh... unlike the night before the first day of school back in elementary school, I will be able to sleep tonight!! (I was the kid who was so excited about school starting that I couldn't sleep in anticipation. I'm not quite that excited.)

Here's to the start of a crazy year....
(yippee??!!)
