The End of Freedom

As the end of summer is closing in, so is my time of freedom and carelessness. Since I have been given a start date for work, my summer is flying by! It is going to be a major adjustment getting into a regular schedule and actually having to get out of bed in the morning! But I could not be more excited to start working. As much as I enjoyed having no commitments to life, it definitely left me feeling like I was worthless and that there was a major part of life missing. I’m happy to finally have responsibility and structure in my life again.

I’m not sure if I ever really explained the job, but here's a gist of what I was told I’d be doing. I’ll be sure to let you know how it is once I start. It’s pretty much a project based position. I’ll be working with business users to adjust and add on to the current systems to help the business run more smoothly. To do this I’ll be writing specification documents, documenting new and existing processes, and communicating with business users to do analysis of the systems. It’s a hybrid of technology and working with people that I think is a perfect fit for what I’m looking to make a career out of. Just talking about it now is getting me very excited to start next Tuesday!
