Intro to SI

People kept asking me if I'm nervous or excited about starting grad school. I really wasn't. I just wanted to get orientation over with so I would finally be able to register for classes so I would finally have a class schedule so I could finally get a job.

But now I'm here. And I know squat. And I'm scared. If I were the kind of person who said things like "buggin'", I would tell you that I am buggin' right now. What kind of mutant am I that I've lived 21 years of my life in Ann Arbor and know less than nothing about the University of Michigan? That I got lost in the Undergraduate Library? I feel completely out of control. I don't know what I'm doing. What have I gotten myself into?

Mer - I think I am typing this about 50 feet away from you. I would come say hi but I'm scared and I might pee on you.

Fear not, dear srah. The first day is nothing compared to how badly the remaining 2+ years are going to suck.

No, but seriously... Enjoy it. I'm jealous that I can't be in grad school already. And might I suggest picking up a map?

(laugh) Well, considering how many cranky profs I've dealt with today, being peed on would be semi-pleaseant by comparison.

I'll allow you're about a couple flights up from me, too, though. You may actually be closer to Julie of Changed Priorities Ahead, since her new office is just on the other side of the connector.

Actually, I was trying to kill time so I went to some computer lab in the UGLi and walked past the reserves office on the way.
