Ok, so all that freaking out in my last post was totally unnecessary. I LOVE GRAD SCHOOL! I'm really glad I was able to reduce my work hours to 30 per week so that I can focus on learning. We've been in school for over a month now, and it has been a really fun experience to use my brain again! I love being able to discuss big ideas and get a greater understanding of how the world works. Also, I like being able to talk about things in an academic setting and not feel like I have to dumb it down or try to be all cool. Our class is really great. We have 26 people, and everyone works in Child and Family Services. We have class from 6-9 on Tuesdays and 4-10 on Thursdays, so we always have a potluck dinner on Thursdays so we don't starve. It feels like we have a really good support system with our class. I carpool up to the U with two other people from my office, which is really great for me because it forces me to go to class, which isn't a problem for me right now, but I know from my undergrad that by the end of the three years they will have had to drag me there more than a couple of times.
