ELM. It stand for Entry Level Masters. In such a setting, you do not get the luxury of pacing yourself to complete your degree. You are pushed into the deep end, and are expected to already know how to swim; that or you will sink.
8am-6pm. Class ALL day. it is tedious and long, but time seems to pass quickly when your hand can barely keep pace with the powerpoint, and when your mind is reeling trying to synthesize information from a million different places.
the reading list is intense to put it mildly. the professors so far are incredible, mostly because they are seasoned vets in the world of second career students and know how to (lovingly?) guide us.
tomorrow is the first skills lab, where all of us are expected to come dressed in full uniform. hip hip hooray for w(h)ine colored scrubs.
in other news: today was the new nanny's first day. I hope the boys acclimate to her soon. I am going to see my precious littles on Thursday. I dare you to try to keep me away.
