Today is exactly three months since I started at my new job, so time for a short recap.

The first couple of weeks have been pretty hard. I was just overwhelmed with so much new stuff, and I wasn’t sure I could handle the responsibility. It also has been hard emotionally. I really missed my old colleagues. Luckily we still have lunch together (since I still work at the same company), but for weeks, I found it very hard to cross the street back to my department after my lunch breaks. Pfff, I’m glad that phase is over, I felt so stupid about the whole thing.

I’ve really learned a lot during the last three months, and there is still so much to learn. I think I’ve made a good impression so far (or so I hear). I seem to be starting to make a name for myself in the company, which I owe in large part to certain people, who have been dropping my name around to others (if by any chance you are reading this, I really appreciate it a lot J).
It’s also been soooo busy, it’s almost crazy. There are soooo many open requests lying around, and there are soooo many things I still don’t know. Our department is looking for new people, which we desperately need. At least I can’t say that it hasn’t been interesting the last couple of months, and I have the feeling that it will stay that way for the time being.
