Where Everybody Knows Your Name ( Cheers Theme)

 Here i am : yearning for the familiar. 

It is my first day at my summer school site - right now actually it is 8:49 on my very first day. My first day is only just getting started but I am sitting at my "desk" ( it's a table) and i find myself missing my coworkers! Is that like totally lame? 

I remember when i first started working there, I was so nervous. Not in like a scared way, but more nervous about being somewhere new. I was shy to talk to teachers, ask for help and overall put myself out there. As months passed, I began to really enjoy it. I found friends in the teachers i supported. I found kids who solidified every single day that this is in fact my purpose. I found so much joy! 

May was the end of my second year working there, so let me be very clear this isn't some like ten year long bond with them lol, i know i am writing about it super passionately.  I am just super bad at the weird getting to know people and small talk part of work and friendship ( saying friendship really feels like a stretch i am literally only going to be working here for a month) and at my school, I had already gotten over that weird slump! I know them already! I can walk into a classroom and support any teacher( or just bother them)  because I knowwww them already! 

Here is all weird because I don't know these people!! Who do i bug when. i have a slump in my day? Who is the Caven equivalent?! Who will lend me their keys?!?! I don't know, it is all just so strange and unfamiliar to me.. but i guess everything i know now was unfamiliar to me at some point? As much as a i complain sometimes about work, and dragging my feet to get out of bed i would much rather be there than here. That sounds dramatic, im sure this feeling will pass within a week and i will be back to feeling normal. I might even like it. But for now, I will yearn! 

but i can't help but want to go where everybody knows my name

see ya! ◡̈
