Embracing October
Shortly after my graduation, I had so little time to spare, busy looking around for a job, or something to do, that have a sort of economic value. I had my eyes on one particular advertisement, issued by I**S hotel, stating that they were looking for a pre-opening team for their brand new hotel in my city. Having since long quite an interest in hospitality, I decided to apply for the job.
Shortly after, came the interview, then the medical check-up, and I arrived at the seemingly final point, the Letter of Intention. So yeah, I can practically say I got the job. It's not anything fancy, really. It's a very basic job for a novice like me. A guest service agent. It doesn't pay off highly, with more responsibilities and demands than I could think of, but worth the try for a starter.
I'm supposed to start working on October 1st, 2013, which is approximately 2 days from now. Nerve-wrecking, heart-pumping, and I'm having a panic attack every night. I'm an insomniac now. Can't get my eyes to shut properly before midnight. A lot of things going on in my head - I'm infamous for over thinking, you know - almost have a breakdown before the actual job happens. Silly. Preposterous. Shameful.
I know I'm not fully ready to let go of my holiday and freedom, but I have to embrace it, my job and my new career, whether I'm up for it or not. On that bombshell, it's time for us to part. Good bye and take care!
