I LOVE SLEEP...and I had trouble sleeping last night! Luckliy, that is not a common practice of mine! First intensive class! First face to face class in this doctoral adventure! Am I in over my head? All these (plus more) crazy thoughts going through my head and I really am not a panic type person! Well, now that the day is coming to a close, I realize that there was nothing to worry about. I knew it the minute the morning pray was over. What a great way to comfort my worries!
I am shocked how much I learned in the first day. Not just the content information, which was great, but items that will effect me in my doctoral adventure! Most impressively, I appreciate the guidance that we were given in regards to dissertation. I am very early in this adventure and it is so nice to be able to do all of this planning ahead. In addition, I just love the "little helpful hints" that I am getting. For example, setting up a folder in the online library already came in handy as I was doing additional information for my lit review!
Being able to get together with my team was a great way to end the day. Of course we had some revisions to the plan we made over the summer and there was some knew researching that was needed to be complete, but that's okay. It is a 700 level class so it is to be expected!
Day 1 is down and I certainly expect to be able to sleep much better tonight! Looking forward to the brain overload that is for sure on its way tomorrow!
