Weak Too

The end of my second week at First5LA has wrapped up to positive effects. I'm very tired, but for a good reason - I really worked hard this week. But let's get to the good news. I am feeling more a part of the organization now, than I did last week. My sense of humor and personality is now allowed to shine a little bit more, so people are starting to like me. Prior to this, I felt like the new kid in school... the one that runs up to the other kids who are playing, only to see them run away.

The scope of my job has increased to the point where I couldn't tell you, with absolute confidence, what I do. If you asked me what I do, now, I'd say:

"A lot."

The team has given me a nickname, a title that I apparently had the day I interviewed - "The Kid." Michael, the ultimate Administrative Assistant, provided me the moniker. The other nickname I have is...

"Bueller"

...as given to me by Amanda, a Contracts and Legal teammate. What's funny about that nickname, is that my father compares me to Ferris Bueller as well. There's something to that, it seems, if two people have come to the same conclusion. Thankfully I'm being compared to a wisecracking, intelligent, charming character as opposed to...

Peter Lorre

This particular entry to my blog is going to be without any real organization - I'm tired.

Today was my first pay day and I ran to the nearest BofA to deposit it. I was happy with it.

Good night.
