Still don’t miss it

Still don’t miss it

August 24, 2015 • College, Life, Work

I remember when I was getting close to graduating from high school, so many people would tell me to enjoy it because I would miss it. Here I am, six years later, and I still don’t miss it.

This week is the first week back to school, and I’m still just as glad this year as I was the year after I graduated that I don’t have to. Granted, I am taking college classes, but I think college is so different than K-12. Growing up, I hated going back to school. I never minded going to class or doing the work – I just hated school.


Embracing a new experience

Embracing a new experience

August 21, 2015 • Life, Work

I completed my first week of work today, and while I loved it, it’s an overwhelming experience. My anxiety had been on overdrive because I’m someone who doesn’t handle change well. I have a super hard time just embracing it and adjusting to it. And I’m so afraid of screwing up or just not knowing what I’m supposed to do. It doesn’t matter that I just started – I still put so much pressure on myself.

I also have some hearing loss, so it can make it hard communicating with people and that makes my anxiety worse.
