I know this is not directly related to weddings, but I just wanted to share my excitement.  I am almost done with my first semester of my Master's for Occupational Therapy!  I just have this week of finals and then my first semester is done!  How did I get here?  So shocked and excited!!

    My first semester was so scary. I had no idea if I was cut out for grad school or not. Plus, I was exhausted. Undergrad was a cake walk compared to grad school.

    I felt so much better when my first semester grades came in and proved I really could do it.

    Thank you everyone!! 
    Yes, this was exciting and scary all at once!  I was so nervous and wasn't sure if I could do it.  Like you said @wrigleyville, I questioned whether I was cut out for grad school many times this semester and I honestly don't know how I have gotten here.  My poor fiance has had to deal with my emotions, which he has handled beautifully.   I have had a number of emotional breakdowns and he has been wonderful in supporting me and always providing encouragement.  He constantly tells me how hard I have worked and how proud he is of me.  Now I feel like I can actually do grad school and anything else that I put my mind to.  So I feel like I have gained a little boost of confidence.
    Lol @phira.  It definitely is something else!

    I can do this!

    Thank you all again for your warm words!

    Oh my gosh. I cried so many times during grad school, and I was completely attached to my dry erase calendar. I would have been lost without that thing.
