I applied for a $1000 Dora Wallace Hodgson Summer Research grant through the WSU graduate school and I just found out today that I was one of the recipients. How exciting! This means I don't have to get student loans for the summer. It also means there are people who think my research proposal is interesting enough to give me money so that feels reassuring.
I know I said this on my last post, but I can't believe I'm heading to Belize so soon. Crazy.
I also found out today that I have a job next year at school. My City Archaeologist position ends, so I was hoping I could find something on campus. My new job, to put it simply, will be coordinating and managing study session leaders for various courses on campus. I also have to generate/compile reports to prove that the program (called Supplemental Instruction) is worthwhile. Getting a graduate assistant job on campus is really beneficial to me because not only is it a meager paycheck, but it gets me cheap health insurance and in-state tuition. So basically, I'm having a really good day.

Cheers to you! Always nice to get free money (and the in-state tuition doesn't hurt either).
My kittens are crazy - but then again, you already knew that.
