It has officially turned to fall here in Auckland. You would expect fall to mean things like changing leaves and bringing hoodies out of hibernation, yet fall here is not really any of those things. Fall means always carrying your umbrella and bringing out the gum boots. Mike and I have been super busy since I have started work. I know work at a law firm called A J Park, the work is busy and it is a far cry from my work with Dr. Elmore. I didn't realize first, how difficult it is to work in a different country, there are so many little things that are different that seriously throw me off like, dates, punctuation, spelling. Secondly, being the new person is tough, it is tough to work in a big new office where you don't know anyone and have to start at the bottom, an example of how new I am was on my first day after training my co worker Jess was helping me draft a letter and I wrote "cease and deceased"...instead of "cease and desist". Moments like that really make me miss working in an office where I knew how everything worked and I didn't feel overwhelmed at the thought of using a copy machine.
However, despite my insecurity I feel so blessed to have gotten this job. I believe that having experience in the legal field can really open doors for me. Mike and I have many pictures of our adventures the last weeks and I will try and get them up today, hope everyone is doing well, spring is coming....yay!
