Good Morning Mr. Senator!

Trying to make myself a morning person is making me sleepy.
I got myself into a position where waking up at 7 AM is now a regular routine. Although, I am very excited that I landed myself an internship at the state senator's office I am wondering how long I'm going to be able to keep up this early bird streak?
Once I get to work, wearing my first day at work outfit, I'm taken on a tour around the small office that is completely empty at the time. I quickly realize that no one at the office is a morning person either. People start slowly trickling in and I'm awkwardly introduced to each one. My observations show me that people working here are in their early twenties, which I like, and there is only one male. I have a feeling that as time progresses and I become more comfortable in the office I will form some sort of crush on him. That happens when I have nothing else to look at. Lucky for him he is surrounded by intelligent girls for the entire day, oh and me on Mondays and Wednesdays (hehe).
L, the office manager, gets me to work on some paper sorting. I read each of continuants letters and it makes me laugh. I find their passion for certain topics humerous...I can't help it! For example, the topic of marijuana and taxation. People argue how this drug has been around for years and it is a major agricultural crop for Calie. It's just funny...you had to be there, in my head.
I leave the office wondering what will happen next time...maybe I will actually pick up the phone. One task I am surely dreading. Who knew that answering the phone could be such a critical task?
Pondering over my day on my busride to school I came to the conclusion that I'm going to stick with this new me. Waking up early, doing homework early, and being so busy that I can't sit down!
Because this early bird is going to catch the biggest and BEST worm (haha)!--I know you're jealous.
