Life

Work starts in a few days… I’m not ready to accept it yet. I’ve never worked a full-time job in my life, not even sure if last summer even counted! I practically had zero responsibility and it was “okay” if I screwed up because that’s what is expected of interns. But EEKS no more of that anymore! The big world calls for big responsibilities, and grown up decisions. No longer can I whine about waking up early or not having enough time to relax because that’s life. We have to deal with it.

At the same time I can’t wait…can’t wait for real life to start. I’ve been working towards something the past 4 years and the day is approaching soon! I still remember being on the fence of whether or not to pursue accounting and being tipped over by the father to choose it. And wow was I an emotional wreck at the moment…thank goodness for living out!! Then I remember being upset about NEARLY not making the cutoff mark and worried, so very very worried, that the company might revoke my job offer because of that. So all in all, I’m very grateful for not having to worry about a job, yet anxious that I won’t be able to meet expectations since, well you know, my worst marks WERE in accounting courses… ahh we’ll see!!

I also can’t wait to meet a more diverse bunch of people! Everyone with different backgrounds and from different programs, it’s just interesting to see what else is out there. I’m tired of seeing cookie-cutter human beings in Rotman!

T-3 till life. Bring it, bitch.
