Anxious for the semester to begin!?!

[MooseGoose2324]

Is anybody else on pins and needles waiting for our first semester of grad school to start? I am going nuts…I've already gotten everything ready for orientation, ordered my books and read/re-read all of the info I've already been sent by my program about a billion times. This final week of waiting is killing me (we don't start until Sep 6th)! I'm a weird bundle of nerves and excitement. Is anybody else kind of freaking out? I feel like a little kid, haha. Also - I know this has been brought up before in these forums - but does everybody have an outfit picked out for their first day of orientation? My program's handbook has a section stating that they require business-casual for any time spent in the campus clinic/external clinical placements but they do not require it for regular class attendance. I'm thinking for orientation it'd be best to err on the side of caution and go business-casual to make a pleasant first impression? Anybody have similar concerns or thoughts?

I wore normal clothes like jeans to mine. Odds are orientation will go over clinic dress code but until you see clients I personally don't see the need to dress up more. Plus anytime we don't have a client my cohort will wear whatever.

Yeah my orientation is tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous , I haven't bought my books, yet planning on it this week.
