Time To Change My Habits

I got a job!

It is no longer just this abstract hope that might come through. It has actually happened, and I filled out the paperwork today. I actually found out last Tuesday, then had it taken away briefly while they re-validated my security clearance, and then had it offered again on Friday, woohoo! What a happy week. I even get health insurance and a retirement plan and all sorts of good stuff.

The job, which shall remain nameless so I don't have to kill anyone, is in my old office, and is a coop program, otherwise known as Student Career Employment Program (SCEP). What SCEP is, is a full time job while in school, and then it can be noncompetitively turned into a real position once you have graduated. Awesome, right? I think so :-)

There is of course a downside, and that is that I hope there is actually work for me to do. I say this because there are two interns in the office now, and there was barely enough for me to do as the only intern before. Sigh. Still, if my supervisor fought as hard as he did for me, then he must have some sort of plan, right? In any case, I am not going to let this get me down at all. I am all about celebrating and happiness right now, and nothing can bring me down :-)

I think I am starting on Monday because that is when my supervisor will be back from (his son's) spring break. And herein lies the reason I need to change my habits: I have been going to bed at 2 and waking up at 10, and now I will have to get up at 7 every day again. This means I HAVE to start going to bed earlier. I have been doing well this week, with being in bed around midnight and going to bed between 12 and 1am. So, I just need to keep moving that up a bit, and I will be all set. Wish me luck, as this night owl once again transitions to being a morning bird.

I got a job!!!!!
