*Shake*

Why is it I get so nervous about things? To the outside world I appear confident and capable. I would go anywhere on my own. Anywhere at all. I enjoy my own company. Yet when I have to start a new job I am a nervous wreck. Today I feel sick. I feel shaky and nervous. I can feel my stomach churning over. I am restless.

I start at 5:30pm. I know Iwill be fine but there is just the nagging doubt that I don't want to look a complete doofus on my first shift. I want to impress but not be too keen. I am keen. I am all ready to go right now. A whole hour and half early.

I have been laughing today though. This is what has had me giggling : ayuhgotyercossyon and gizaguzzgog. It brought my childhood flooding back :)

You'll do great! Just remember that they hired you for a reason, because you were the best of the pack! Deep breaths. Believe me, I understand. I'm nervous about most things in my life.
