Nervous Nelly

Tomorrow I begin a new chapter of my life: a new job.

Right now I am feeling as I always do before I have to do something where all eyes will be on me... extreme nervousness.  Am I going to like it?  Am I going to fit in?  Will my attire be okay?  Where do I eat lunch?  Can I do what they are asking me to do???  So many things rushing around in my head, and yes, one of them is about food.  Why do you think I am on a diet?

Anyway, I know the first day is just that, a first day.  No one is going to expect me to get there and leap right into everything perfectly.  But, I guess it is just the pressure and expectation I put on myself that gets me so riled up.  Everyone else is so excited for me and so very supportive.  My family and friends seem to have such a high opinion of me, and I just don't want to let them down.  I don't want to let myself down, either.

But, you know what?  Like I said to myself before the interview: if it was meant to be, it will be.
