I've never liked the first days (or weeks, for that matter) of school. I don't like introductory phases. I'm ready to be in the midst of everything. I'm ready to be as knowledgeable as I was on my last job. I don't like being the new kid on the block. Everybody wants to ask you a million questions about who you are and what you've done. Everybody wants to get to know you...or it could be the complete opposite! Because you're the new kid, you don't exactly fit into the setting the already-established workers have. Either way, I know this will all work out with time.
I wanted to etch this day in stone on my blog with this post, so when that day comes I can look back at this and say "I really had nothing to worry about!". So far the transition has been just that...a transition. I don't really feel like this is my home just yet...but I'm sure that's something that will come with time too!
Wish me luck.
Follow Mi!
Sounds exciting! What will you be doing now? Found you on the monday blog hop!
ReplyDeleteHey Kelsey!! Thanks for stopping by! I did a Working Girl Series leading up to my first day. Check it out..but here is the part of the series that talks a little bit about what I did at my last job...which is a lot like what I do now!: http://mlhender.blogspot.com/2013/08/im-still-working-girl-finale.html
DeleteI totally know how you feel with starting new jobs and the first day of school. It's not that I don't like to meet new people, but I really want to get settled into my job, and just get to work! Unfortunately, it's all a part of the process!
ReplyDeleteI know that you will be excellent in your new job, and I'm praying for God to continually give you favor on your job and with the people you meet at work and in the city! So excited for you!
Exactly!! Thanks for your encouragement! I need it! Things are going well so far, it still doesn't quite feel like home, but I'm trying my best to settle in!! Thanks again!!

DeleteCongrats on the new job! I am not a fan of first days either. I hope you do great nikki!
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I'm doing pretty good so far!
DeleteGood luck on your first week. I'm sure you'll do great! I actually just wrote a blog post about how to have a great "first day of work". Maybe it'll be helpful for you. http://faketillyoumake.typepad.com/fake_it_till_you_make_it/2013/08/students-go-back-to-school-this-and-next-week-which-has-me-thinking-about-how-i-used-to-prepare-for-the-first-day-of-school.html
