It was so great&#8230; so many things weren&#8217;t working. What a first day&#8230; but&#8230; now, when everything works, it seems easy!<\/p>\n<p>It is hard getting used to the workload. Since I moved down here in October, my job has pretty much been everything at my own pace&#8230; no real deadlines or stress. Now, I have to worry about meeting expectations of customers and all that stuff. If I miss a follow up with a customer, that is a big fucking deal because when these people are talking to me, to them I am the company that I work for. That&#8217;s a little intimidating, but atfter 3 days, I am becoming more comfortable with it.<\/p>\n<p>My family was here last week. It was so good to see them. Although it was cramped and a little annoying at times because we were in my 1 bedroom apartment and I didnt reallly sleep well while they were here, I still would not have had them not come. I am very happy that they did. I showed them a bunch of places in and around Austin. We went to San Antonio for a day to see the Alamo and some other cool things there. Most of all, it was just great for them to be here.<\/p>\n<p>My karate classes have been good. We are learning some really cool stuff even some things with weapons.I have settled into going 2x week. I don&#8217;t feel right if I don&#8217;t go.<\/p>\n<p>I have not been happy lately. Except for the days that my parents were here, I have been pretty lonley. Living alone kinda sucks. It feels good to be out on my own and all that, but&#8230; when I don&#8217;t have karate class after work, I don&#8217;t generally do anything.
