Day 1

It's finally arrived. After years of thinking, six months of applications and planning, two weeks of vacation and a lifetime of regret, I've finally jumped tracks and landed back in school again. The feeling of relief is indescribable, and I'm incredibly lucky to have such a supportive group of friends and family around me to help cheer me on. When the penny finally dropped last October I remember thinking clearly that I finally knew what I wanted to do, but making it happen seemed overwhelming; there's nothing quite like a huge and intricate plan coming together nicely.

I've often wondered what reinventing yourself would feel like. Would it be nerve-wrecking, exciting, dangerous, or exhilarating? All of the above, it turns out. What I didn't expect what the overriding sense of calm confidence, the quiet knowledge that you're heading in the right direction, that everything is going to be OK.

I'm glad I'm finally here. Now lets get started...
