Keep your sights focused on your long term goal, don't let your current job hinder you from achieving that. Don't become comfortable, settle in, and lose sight of your goal.

Working so many hours, especially graveyard and trying to balance school is undoubtedly going to take a toll on your own sanity, health, and relationships with friends/family. Don't let yourself burn out. Make sure you have time to do things you enjoy to actually "live" your life.

All things considered, likely it's pointing towards the eventual cutting down of your hours at your graveyard shift... If you plan to continue with your education, this will need to happen. Even if you decide to stay at this job, you can't work 60-70 hour weeks doing graveyard forever if you want to have a family, and since you will be aging down the road.

Aim to make the same amount of money or more while putting in fewer hours and/or better hours. The target is there, so its up to you to do what you have to do to hit it.
