Today’s the day.
Last night I packed up my school bag with my newly-minted syllabus for COMM 1101 and grad school orientation schedule, checked to make sure I had pens and paper for note-taking, and picked out my outfit. Yes, I am very much a back-to-school nerd.
I’m a happy nerd, though. The last 30 days have been so restful and rejuvenating. More on that to come.
I’m a nervous nerd. Remember the feeling of walking into freshman orientation knowing absolutely no one and wondering (shudder) where you’ll sit and who you’ll talk to and will you eat your lunch alone? Who knew that those feelings from seven years ago could suddenly come rushing back.
I’m a thrilled, excited, on-cloud-nine nerd. This morning I’m going to work, going to a job that I’ve waited for and prayed for and actually got offered.
This is really happening.
