A lot has happened in the last few weeks for Nick and myself. Where do I begin...
It all started about a month and a half ago. I was contacted by the VP of Opertaions in my company to interview for a position working with him. I was so excited and honored that he would think of me for this position. It would be such a great opportunity for me!
Well, I found it was between me and a girl in the Accounting Dept. I wasn't too worried however because I was confident in my relationship with the VP and in my abilities to do the job well. That is why when I found out that he gave the job to this girl from Accounting I was pretty crushed. After I had a little pitty party for myself and let out a good cry, Nick made me feel a lot better about everything. He reminded me that everything happens for a reason and that if I didn't get the position it was because it wasn't where I was meant to be.
After a couple weeks I decided to email the manager in the Accounting dept to see if she'd be interested in interviewing Nick since this new position had opened up in her dept. I didn't give it much thought since she blew me off about a year ago when I tried to get Nick a job with her at that time. Well, she emailed me back, I sent Nick's resume over, she interviewed him and sure enough Nick got the job!! I am so happy for him. This is going to be such a great opportunity for Nick to get some real work experience in the field he is going to school for. It has been such a testimony to me that everything really does happen for a reason. Now Nick and I will be working for the same company which means we'll get to carpool and take lunches together. I'm so happy to be able to spend as much time with him as I can.
On top of all of that, I was offered another job in my company working in a brand new department. I'm going to be the Operations Coordinator, in charge of scheduling and many different operational needs. It's a great opportunity for me but I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous. I work closley with the Operations Coordinator in the dept I'm in now and I see what she goes through. It's not an easy job. But I know that if I don't try then I'll never grow, I'll never learn, and I'll never better myself.
The same day that I accepted this new job offer I also received a new calling in my ward. I got called to be the 2nd Counselor in the Young Women's Presidency! I'm so excited! I loved Young Women's when I was in it because I had such great leaders so I only hope that I can be a good influence on the Young Women in my ward.
Needless to say, the next few months are going to be filled with a lot of new changes, new challenges, new excitements, new stresses and new joys. Bring it on!
