Okay, done freaking out. I'll still have to deal with my workload, but it seems comparable to that of the other first years in my program. Besides, people make it past their first year of grad school all the time. I'll be fine.
Inorganic is doing rotations for the first time this year, and my first rotation also starts this week. It's with my second-choice professor, the awesome nanomaterials prof, and I'm looking forward to seeing if I want to go down more of a materials-y path or not. My first choice says he really wants me in my lab, but I'm rotating with him second, because currently his instrumentation is spread over three different floors, and it should be consolidated by mid-September. This is all very exciting!
Also, some of the other first-years are coming over tonight for carrot cake that the roommate and I made from scratch. I'm excited and need to start making the frosting.
