There is a strange bit of excitement in the air every time a new semester is about to begin. Up until the beginning of the semester the campus is basically dead. Then something amazing happens. The campus begins to blossom, no not that kind, the kind where people and cars and bicycles and skateboards all crowd the sidewalks to get their piece of the action. Woah! Students break the binding on their $200 communications 1010 textbook and stare in awe at the plethora of words and dearth of pictures.
Students eagerly download the course syllabus and calculate just how long they can put off the midterm and final papers to accommodate their xBox 360 schedule. (which by the way, you can now stream Netflix movies on)

I too, get excited. Especially now that I can see the light at the end of the masters degree tunnel. Yes, it really is Matrix green, and yes I took the red pill.

Coming up this semester I learn how to design research and how to policy health. Whee!
