i took the GRE this morning and it went well.  hoo-ray.  they are SERIOUS over there in GRE testing world, though.  i had to be wanded with a metal detector thing every time i entered the exam room (at the beginning and then after my 10 minute break).  wanded!!!  yikes.

i have been leaving you all hanging about the reason for taking the GRE, so here's a little info: i'm applying to three different masters degree programs in educational leadership - a degree that would hopefully help me become an upper school principal or a head of school some day.  eek!  that is scary to say out loud, and i don't think i am ready for those jobs today.  but someday i hope to be.  i love working in schools, and being a dean of students has given me a taste for what the senior administrative positions entail.  so...we'll see.

all of the programs are one year long; two are full time (one in new york, one in california...and you'd better believe that location played a role in the programs i decided to apply to) and one is part time (i would stay at my current job and fly to pennsylvania one weekend a month for classes).

i'll keep you updated!  for now, though, i am taking a nap.
