A letter arrived today from the HR department of my university, I curiously ripped through the envelope to find that its main duty was to inform me that my first pay is now sitting comfortably on my bank account.
SAY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT?!
My pay check is chilling in my bank account, MY FIRST EVER SALARY, WAGES, MONETARY COMPENSATION FOR EFFORT IS HERE!
Even better than Christmas, I'm telling you.
I treated myself to a shitload of food today to compensate the brain cells I killed during teaching. It feels nice, it feels really really nice to know that I'm paying with MY money. Like, M-Y M-O-N-E-Y, BABY!
Am seriously considering upon framing the letter on my wall. But that'd be too pathetic :p So I decided to store it in my special letter case as a token of remembrance. One day when I'm 50 and cant walk without a stick, I'll glance through it and will find a yellowing letter announcing my first paycheck. Not to mention harassing my grandchildren to be as proud as I am right now.
