Today i signed papers for a new job as a "substance abuse access agent."
Today i put in my 2 weeks at the mall.

I could not BE more excited. i have been smiling like an idiot all day. this sort of success...this sort of moving on in my life is what i need. I'm graduating in May. I have a real job..currently part time, but with the option of full time once i graduate if i decide to take a semester off before grad school...or the option to keep it part time while in grad school. this is a win-win situation!

I will be making more money. I will be doing something relevant to my degree. and most importantly...i will no longer be working at the mall!! i am DONE with retail. i am done pretending to care about picking out other people's outfits.

I know i gave brian a hard time about his job falling into his lap...but this is hardly any better. it's a foot in the door if instead of neuro i decide to do substance abuse counseling (which was the other plan) ....it's a good thing. and i need more good things in my life.

I am also resolving to be nicer to myself. Because i am a pretty great person, but i mistreat myself a lot. mostly emotionally, and that is not good for me. i need more good in my life.

I cut my hair off.
I graduate in May.
I have a new job.

and for once i am happy from personal success, not from having some stupid boy where i wanted him. and this is SO much better.
