Days Like Today – Page 2 – Gluten Free PharmD Mama

I just finished up the bulk of my training for my new job. Although this is very exciting, I am also very scared to start my first day.

There are so many “What Ifs” about the first day/week of a new job.

“What if I mess up?”

“What if they hate me?”

“What if I don’t know what to do?”

We have all gone through the process of doubting ourselves.

Actually, I’m going through this process right now. I am so scared about starting my job that I cry. I’m afraid of messing up and looking like an idiot. I feel as if I have to know everything before setting foot in the building.

Thus just isn’t the case.

Everyone is telling me that it will be perfectly fine, but it’s still very hard for me to get the negatives out of my head. I guess we all have to just remember that “the new chick cannot fly immediately.” This concept really hits home when you think about how much you know and how much you have left to learn.

If you ever feel like you are going to fail at something new, remember that you are not alone.

Stay Golden,

Emily

It is days like this that make me feel sad about being single. Days when everywhere I turn there is a happy couple completely in love. Days like this when I want nothing more than to cuddle up with an amazing guy and enjoy a good movie together. Days when I’m surrounded by amazing people and still feel a little lonely. But I’ll be okay. My day will come when I find the perfect man to complete my life. That day is not today and I’m okay with that.

Being single is not a forever type of thing. Being single doesn’t mean that you aren’t good enough or that you are ugly. My best friend always tells me that “being single just means God is writing your love story and saying ‘I’m saving that girl for someone special’.” She is absolutely right in that regard.

I do not always need a man to achieve all of my dreams, and neither do you! A boyfriend is just a perk. It is not essential to have a boyfriend all the time. A lot of the people that I know have not had any yet, and that is perfectly okay. Besides, I have done very well for myself without a boyfriend. I have reached all of my goals so far, and I intend to continue to reach for the stars as I embark on my new journey into college and beyond.
