3/16/2009....
A day I will never forget. The 1st day of my CAREER as an ACCOUNTANT! I seriously had started to doubt that I was ever going to fulfill my dream of being an Accountant, and suddenly here I am on this surreal day.
Everyone has experienced the 1st day of school, multiple times. Anxious, nervous, excited, scared.... Don't know quite what to expect, but so curious to see how its going to turn out.... that only begins to describe this surreal day.
I was completely prepared for this momentous day... Outfit ironed and layed out, coffee pot ready to brew, alarm clock set, and in bed early enough to be bright and smiley in the morning.
As my alarm went off I popped straight out of bed (those of you that know me well know that the idea of Tracy & jumping straight out of bed is simply ludacris). Showered, made my coffee, ate some cereal, did my hair & make-up, dressed up and left for my 1st day of work.
As I walk out to my car it is an absolutely beautiful sunny morning. 65 degrees and barely a cloud in the sky. I hop in the car and start my commute. I'm thinking its going to take me about 30minutes to get to work. Turn up the music and hit the highway. Thats when it truly hit me, the 1st day of my career feeling....
This was unlike anything I have ever felt before in my life. For the 1st time my mind isn't racing a million thoughts a minute. Completely calm and at peace. No words will ever truly be able to describe that drive. Such a sense of pride and accomplishment that I have never experienced before. My chest was filled with this amazing emotion. That drive will forever be ingrained in me. Something in me changed during that drive... What? I will never know. But I have a feeling that this was a once in a lifetime moment. Not like the 1st day of school, not even the 1st day of a job... The 1st day of a new life!
Everyone at Siliken is great. Such a good group of people. After 3 days I am just loving it. I know I will have many challenges ahead of me, but I am so ready! I am so excited to be a part of this company and can't wait for it to take off! This is going to be one hell of a ride!
Stay tuned...
