My brain is mashed potatoes.

What I wore: Shoes, Keds. Jeans, Hollister. Tank, Gap. Cardigan, Old Navy. 

Did I tell you the way my graduate program works?

It's low residency. Meaning we come to campus, all day every day, for 10 days straight.

And then we leave campus and we work from home, 

with the help of our professor/mentors, for 5 months.

And then we repeat.
I'm in the middle of my first 10 days on campus... 

Essentially, what I'm trying to say is that 

my normal daily routine just received a swift kick in the butt.

I'm nonstop busy and my brain is oozing and overflowing with new knowledge.

(More on what I'm learning later.)

It's sort of miraculous that I have enough space left in my brain to remember
how to dress myself. So, trying to write a blog post? Pssshhh. 

But, good news! If you're dying to read things my pre-knowledge-assault brain wrote,

I have a guest post appearing on Two Smuppies today, while Jes is off with her family exploring 

Asia (and probably taking hundreds of cool pictures of food there). Check it out, if you'd like!
