In which I turn a year old
I went to Hudson's after work yesterday for Trivia Night. The status quo is unchanged - I still suck at trivia. :) I think my team came in last for both games! However, we totally won in the Team Name category (which was just made up by me). For the first game, our team name was 'Bueller? ... Bueller?... Bueller?'. For the second game, I named us 'M.I.A.'s Middle Finger Halftime Show'.
I am so dorky-cool, it is unreal at times.
Last week I celebrated my work one year anniversary. Can you believe it has been a year since I started working at the Symphony?! (Well you probably can, but I can't.) I still feel like a newbie, but that does not surprise me because I didn't feel experienced at the Shakes until my third season, so I guess we are on par with my crazy mentality. :)
The place and the people here are great. I love how accessible the place is, how everyone is professional but extra friendly, and many will drop what they are doing to lend a hand. I am still learning a lot which is nice because that means I and my skills are continually growing. I meet random co-workers at times (I'm guessing it takes a few years to know everyone or where everything is because we work in a campus of buildings) that are very open to conversation and are always willing to smile. Whenever I fancy, I get to go to beautiful symphonies and plays and peruse art. There is a monthly ginormous Donut Day here for the whole campus, which I just love and think is adorable.
My office is about to head into our busiest time of the year, but I am very grateful that I get to work in a place that I am enamored with, that I truly believe in, and would support no matter what.
The arts are important, and this is where I want to be.
Remember to love.
