Now, I know, I'm a little old for going back to school and may not even be able to retain any of the information because my brain has aged so much, but nevertheless I persevere into the dark valley of college world. Ok, maybe I'm only like 2 years older than the "normal" age of grad students, but still, having a husband, home, doggie, and real job makes me feel just a smidge on the matronly/old person side of things (not to mention my heartburn). I don't consider tshirts flattering anymore, i don't sport any greek letters, and I don't have a dark tan, hair piled on top of my head and huge sunglasses to go with it (ok, i might have 2 of those 3... i can't hold a tan for anything...) I suppose I just feel a little out of my element these days.
On the silver lining side of things: I really love my classes. It definitely satisfies the nerdiness in me and I get to learn Japanese on the side! (some of you are reconsidering being my friend at the moment...) I've also met some really nice people too. Classes seem relatively doable, in terms of I might not have to work myself to death to keep up with home, work, school, and work at school. God knows what he's doing and he continues to prove that to me over and over again.
Well I'm off to go iron my plaid school-girl skirt and pack my hannah montana lunchbox so I can catch the bus to Columbia. I will leave you now with a picture of Remi that Mark took with his new fancy smancy camera.
