greetings from vermont.

i thought instead of journaling i would start a blog. will i keep up with it? will i reflect on my studies, or just degenerate into blabbing about daily minutia. will i be able to write in paragraphs, or return to my old friend, the list? only time will tell, dear readers.

the good news:

why was i nervous about this?? everything is going well. goddard is a place for me. there are tasty vegan options at every meal, and naked people in most of the class photos from previous semesters.
the group of new licensure students who i have met so far (returning students arrive tonight) are from varied backgrounds and are at very differnt places in terms of background in education studies. i thought i might be behind the game (can i say that??) because i'm doing a MA without a BA in education, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

UHHHH. i already failed to finish and publish my first post... as i was typing my roommate heather asked if i wanted to go swimming. how could i resist! it was hot and muggy so 7 of us piled in a truck and a car and drover into town, asked some locals, and had fun in a little brook that was pretty clean and very refreshing.

so. things continue to be good. had fun last night hanging out with new and returning students in the music building, which "continues to be the place for parties" according to the campus info posted in my dorm.

i dont know... don't feel like i have the patience to write more than "oh, x y and z was pretty good and stuff...." so i'll break here for now.
