Day three of something happy

One of the best things about this meme so far is that I've been surprised by the happy-making things. They aren't things I've had to think about. They've just happened! It's amazing and wonderful how you notice the good things when you have your eyes open to them.

I love getting emails from applicants that say:
"Thank you for the emails you send. You are by far the most organized Graduate Secretary of all the schools to which I am applying!"

And then, after passing that bit of praise to my director, having him email back:
"I'm quite confident that you are the most organized graduate secretary in US territory."

Yes! I'm very happy to have a good director of grad studies. I've been lucky with them so far (it's a rotating position--every three years I get a new one).

Hell, hun, you are one of the most organized HUMANS I've ever ever known!
Except for the occasional forgetful thing.. but that's what makes me remember that you ARE real.

Congratulations on getting some deserved appreciation!

I like this meme, too, because I am finding all sorts of things that make me happy. As you said, it hasn't even required much searching.

What a fantastic compliment! And true, too, I'd bet.

I don't know about "the most."

...but I'm probably in the top ten. =)
