Well, the Spring semester is now in full swing. There are multiple articles to read, huge projects to get started on, and the anticipation of teaching for the first time in my life. That's the blessing and curse of graduate school. While you are still a student, you are an advanced one. There is no need to waste time with silly syllabuses and introductions. You had your break, and now it's time for the sixteen week sprint.
I am excited and terrified. The confusing emotions tend to fight for control of my body, but I think I finally have them under control. God will never give me anything I can't handle. It's the entire reason I got my tattoo - and I still believe in that. Still, I can't help but be a bit nervous. This really decides if I have what it takes and if coming here was the best thing I could do.
I'm sure I'll be able to breathe a little better after my first day of prepracticum tomorrow. It's going to all be fine. Hopefully that'll be enough to allow me to catch some shut eye. I've never slept well before something exciting.
As for all of you asking me about the snow; yes, it was about 2 feet that fell down on us yesterday and Boston did not stop. There were plows and sand trucks out all day and the snow really didn't seem to phase anyone except all of us who have never really seen a proper snowstorm before. I'm pretty sure that our tourist sides were showing. (And my southern. Did not want to go out in said weather. At. All.)
For my family and friends in the warm state of Texas, be thankful that spring seems to be upon you. We're supposed to get a blizzard tomorrow night into the wee hours of Tuesday. Let me tell you how I am not excited to experience that kind of snow. But, alas, it is just another thing to adapt to.
I hope that all of y'all's weeks are starting off well!
Until next week,
-Kaity
