Kwadabzz, Awesome foursome day ONE

Day 1 community Wow. Our supervisor said we would hit the ground running and although our first day was fairly relaxed, I think she was so right, after reading all the handovers and going through what is expected of us this block, I am feeling a little overwhelmed. I guess I feel like this every first day of every block thus far. Today was a little easier than the last three but the nerves and butterflies were still there. Its like starting a brand new job every 6 weeks! Having attended all three previous groups handover presentations, I thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect but when you are in the situation, it feels like I know nothing. But I know we will get there. I am very lucky to have an awesome group, we all get along really well and I have one of my closest friends with me. Fourth year does that to you- you create unbreakable friendships as you become reliant on each other’s laughs and company to get you through this year. I am excited for this block. I absolutely love the idea of working in a community, and I cannot wait to be immersed in the community and not only help the community, but allow for the community to teach me. I have a feeling this community has a lot to teach me. Day 1 of block 4 done, so grateful to be ending off our blocks with community. Need to learn to de-stress a little and for my abilities to not be clouded by the seemingly overwhelming feeling of community work, its day 1 and I already have had a realisation. Let’s see what’s in store for the next 6 weeks. HEAD UP, HEART STRONG.
