I'm counting down the days at my job...three weeks from today we load up the moving truck and head to Georgia. I'm *so* ready.

I'm...shall we say...SEVERELY under-employed. I've been enjoying myself spending time with friends and reading, reading, reading, but I'm dying to be busy and productive again. I'm also relying on my husband for living expenses, which drives me nuts. I'm normally very stubborn about pulling my weight.

Plus my classes look amazing, I can't wait to live in the prairies again, I want to meet my cohort, I want my shiny new stack of books.... there's nothing like September. :lol:

And yes, I am one of those crazy dorks who gets kind of depressed every time summer starts.

I am getting more and more nervous as the date approaches. I already live in the area where I will attend school and have a full time job. I am just nervous about the assignments and my grades. I've been reading over the summer but still feel like I am not doing enough. I am looking forward to meeting cute guys in my program :wink: and the social/networking aspect of grad school b/c I don't know many people here my age with my same interests. I am also looking forward to purchasing my brand new laptop and working on my first assignment. Not to mention I love fall weather and fashion.

I don't actually have to report until August 26, but (of course) I've been making plans to arrive a few weeks earlier than that. The problem is, the exact date keeps getting bumped around..... and I don't know how much longer I can keep waiting tables without snapping!! :evil: :shock:

MsMPP- I'm definitely missing the company of my old cohort during this break. Just the casual hallway chit chat and sense of camaraderie. And your discipline has cute boys? I clearly picked the wrong field. Although if you meet your cute boys through grad socials or committee work, you can date outside of your department to minimize awkwardness.

Dherres- I'm in moving-date limbo as well. My husband is planning to work for the same company in our new city as he does here, but they've been dragging their heels like crazy over getting him formally set up with a new position. Until all our ducks are in a row, we can't get a mortgage for the condo we're hoping to buy. At this point, I'm coming up with various contingency plans about how late we can leave condos vs. rentals, how long we can camp out at my folks' while waiting for a place to come through, when to book a house hunting trip, etc etc. And I'm unemployed, so I have lots of free time to think myself into knots!

It's getting close, though. Everything in my current city is getting this kind of nostalgic tinge to it. I can't wait to have everything sorted, and be able to just throw myself into work.
