Well, as it turns out, when you start graduate school, some things get put on the back burner. Things such as:
1. Writing in this blog. Such enthusiasm right out of the gate and theeen...a few semesters later I am remembering that I even started it. Back in business!
2. Magazine reading. Seriously, I have a 3 ft. high stack of unread magazines that continues to grow month by month. Come December, I am determined to catch up!
3. TV watching. A few of the unfinished tv series I've started that I have yet to finish: American Horror Story, House of Cards, Orange is the New Black (haven't technically started this but I have been talking about doing it for-e-ver).
4. Thrifting. I need to devote a Saturday to this soon. I haven't been super excited about a thrift store haul in way too long.
All that being said, some really great things have happened/are soon to happen:
1. I got married!!! I mean, hard to top that! The planning made me batty at times but the wedding itself as well as married life have just been amazing. It's an adventure I didn't know if I would ever attempt but I love it so much and couldn't be happier with my little family!

2. I am in the second to last semester of my program! I truly can't believe how fast time has flown. I vividly remember the (many years) path toward doing this and all the contemplation and internal struggles. Before I applied, I was comfortable at my little office job but very much unfulfilled. Now I am crazy busy, feel stressed and/or terrified on a daily basis, and often wonder if I can get it all done BUT I am on a path towards achieving a major career goal and that is a fantastic feeling. The closer it gets, the more I just want to have my own classroom already!
Excited to be back in this space!
