Teething Issues

I got a job. A part-time one. It was one of my goals for this quarter. I am happy to have it. But, like most jobs, there are some issues that I am experiencing after my first week. This post won’t be my self-therapy session. I have a professional therapist for that (shout out to Mr F). I find it very tiring to balance the new job with all the other things in my life. That’s to be expected. I don’t think I’d go as far as to say I wish I could fast forward to when things start settling down. That is not what will make me grow as a human. Even I cringed at that last sentence. I am keeping it in, though. I have a word count I would like to hit!

When I got my last job, I took on the mindset of just saying yes to opportunities. I didn’t hold back when deciding what events to buy tickets for and buying things I wanted for a long time. I don’t regret that mindset at all. To a point, a still have that mindset. I am more cautious now. I am older and wiser. A whole two years older and wiser. I am constantly learning, which I appreciate about all these life experiences I am facing (or having).

Today, on my day off, I have tried to organise my life around my new job. It isn’t easy. It isn’t impossible either. I know that this job won’t last forever. Don’t get me wrong; I am happy to have it. It would be a lot nicer if I could get paid to do stuff like this blog. All in good time I suppose.

I went to the gym today. I’m starting to get the hang of it. The gym takes care of me feeling good physically. This blog takes care of me feeling good mentally. Together, life ain’t so bad. There is just the slight niggling issue of having to punch a clock a few days a week. As I said, it’s all just a part of the journey.

That’s enough preaching for one day. I’m going to the cinema tonight. Not to brag, but I kind of am. I hope you are enjoying the winter weather. I love it. You’re amazing. Thank you for reading and thank you for your time.
