Chapter 3....

I woke up this morning in my new bed. In my new apartment. It feels good to be back home. But a part of me is missing New York. But more over I'm happy with my new place. It's the apartment I wanted and dreamed of. As my family and close friends gathered for my HOUSEWARMING to celebrate, I can only imagine what my next big steps will be in life. I spent a whole week not blogging, not working, not thinking about anything else but getting my apartment together. To be honest, it felt great not having to worry about the worries of work. I think that was the break i needed. My last week in New York I curved every guy that wanted to spend time with me. To "My Weed Man" to my "My Bestfriend". I didn't see the purpose of kicking it with them. Didn't feel the passion to. Maybe that is considered a life changing point. Where one could not worry about kicking it with a boo of some sort. I ended my last night in New York in a club hanging around my co workers and the friends I have made. I pulled one of those leave the club and go straight to the airport move. Hung over the next day shopping for my apartment. But I didn't care. I was around my mom and little sis who I truly missed. I woke up a nervous reck on my first day back at the Chicago office. Yes, this was my old stomping ground and I ruled there. But now it's different and new. All new people that I now have to work with. Instead of having a small leadership team, I now have a huge leadership team. One would say I'm not the best team player and while one might say I'm more KNOWLEDGEABLE of processes and procedures than most. I often wondered what challenges they can give me. And truth to be told me being humble and learning is the challenge they are giving me. It's a lot i would like to change in this office but this week I'm focused on learning how they operate. It quite different from the New York office. I don't want to get into that mind set as if I'm an outsider but I also won't dumb myself down of the processes and procedures I know. I'm uncomfortable again. But like my VP stated before, you aren't growing if you're not uncomfortable. So here I am with all my determination, dedication, and motivation going on day two at this office. Trying to make sense of it all.
