Though I am both excited and nervous beyond my wits, it's the truth and I like it.
I'm currently preparing a job app for a position on campus that I would really love and be really lucky to get at this stage. It's been a while since I had to endure the whole job application process and since this is a government/uni position, the process is even more strenuous. I've been fortunate enough to get every tip under the sun from a lot of the people I already work with, my boss has ensured me a fab reference and a couple of people have offered to go over my stuff for me as well so that was really kind of them. Of course, I still have to finalise my other referee (who will be getting a semi-irate call tomorrow... I kid) and finish addressing the criteria (they expect sub headings and admittedly, it does make things easier - I'm just editing now), but the closing date is next Friday so I have a little time.
I am certainly prepped for the possibility I won't get it, but I'm just excited to be applying :D let things go as they go...
Oh yes, and as of today - my HECS debt is history! I made the final payment today and now, I've paid off my entire tertiary education and I'm not destitute, huzzah! *dances*
And to just pop that cherry on top there, it's payday tomorrow :)
Aaah, the things that excite you when you get older... and after all those lovely simple pleasures everyone's been noting...;) Will get mine out soon, promise.
