adjustment.

Morning!

IMG 1686

Does anyone else feel like it should be Friday already?

This first week back to school has definitely been a major adjustment.

I’m away from the house from 7am til 4pm on Wednesdays which makes for a really long day considering I have to come home and do school work!

I had my first Human Nutrition course yesterday and am already completely in love.  I’ve never read a textbook before that I actually enjoyed but reading out of this one feels almost like pleasure reading!  If only Chemistry could feel that way 

Anyway I had a quick bowl of Quaker Oatmeal Squares for breakfast topped with some strawberries.  Coffee and soymilk to go along with it.

And with that I’m off!

Two classes today (Food Comp and Chemistry) then hopefully a little gym time.  Wish me luck!

    Good luck with the adjusting. That is the good thing about the working world – no going back and forth. But OMG school is so much more fun. 🙂

    There are days I miss grad school – but knowing there’s no more work to do after I’m done with work is a great feeling. 🙂
