I also received confirmation from the EMBL that I will be met by a driver at Heathrow that will take me to my hotel in Cambridge, and I'll be picked up from the hotel (9:30) to go to the interview itself in Hinxton.
I've been thinking “what if” scenarios since I found out I had the interview. This is not good. I don't want to get overly excited. Yes, it's a great opportunity for me, personally and professionally, if I get it.
*IF* I get it.
I can't assume that it's mine for the taking, even if they are flying me across the Atlantic… Thing is, it's hard not to think about all the good things this might bring. Being on the same continent as Katy, for starters, but also more money and a damn good experience on my CV. I just don't want to set myself up for a big disappointment if I don't get it… gah.
*hugs and multiple kisses* just do your best (and get a hair cut) and we'll take it as it comes, if you don't get it we'll cope and figure out sometimng. if you do get it we'll rejoyce and celebrate and then start panicing on how to sort everything out, provided you decide you want to accept.

That's what everybody is telling me. I just don't want it to go to my head and get too cocky.
