This is probably the happiest I been in three years - I got a new job!
I will be working as an admissions assistant in the university that I graduated from, and I'm so so so happy. I've paid my dues these last two years in a job that I learned a lot in, but was I was not being utilized to my full potential.
My new job is a perfect fit for me, the money is great, I love the environment and it's a position I can feel good in. Best of all, I feel like I have a direction again which I haven't felt since being in my first job out of school (the one in social services where I eventually became very burnt out and decided to leave). Since then I've felt very lost in terms of what I wanted to do, so to feel this way now is a huge relief in so many ways. Yesterday was my last day at my current job, which ended up being pretty emotional because I've made some really good friends. They are the kinds of friends I will have for a long time so I know me leaving won't ruin that. It will just be different.
I'm excited about things again! Everything about this feels right, and it's been a long time since things have felt this good! Sometimes it difficult to remember when you're in the thick of things, but it gets better.
Also, I'm going to try and make a point of posting again...
