Getting ready to hit the classroom!

Today was the graduate student orientation at FSU. Besides hearing about Campus Police, Blackboard, and Career Services, it was nice to have a second look at the campus--it is fairly compact and well maintained. The main student center seems to house about 80% of the admin offices, which is convenient, and the library and fitness center are decent-sized. It was also exciting to start looking at the books for my (2) classes. The nice thing is that I am super thrilled to be back in a classroom, even though I really haven't left since being an undergraduate. It will be fun to take notes, be inundated with homework, and after several stressful exams, actually earn credits towards a degree. So far, hands down the biggest stress for me in starting on September 6th is the commute. It took 40 minutes to get to campus today, and I even had Seth to help navigate. I can't imagine driving those CRAZY roads without someone telling me where to go. Oh my god, I am so worried about the driving out there 4 or 5 days a week for the next three or four years.... :o(
