Katies second day

As soon as Katie woke up she jumped out of bed. She was starting her new job today and she was very very excited. "Today I'm a paper girl. Tomorrow, who knows" she thought as she jumped around the dining table. "Hopefully I'll earn enough so I can actually have 4 walls and a roof by the end of the week!"

She quickly got into her uniform and tried to eat breakfast but it felt as though she had half a dozen snakes and butterflies in her stomach. She finally managed to eat a bowl of cereal before her lift to work arrived.

She stepped out of the car and stared. The building was so much bigger than she expected and for a few minutes Katie was rooted to the spot. She very rarely felt nervous but this was one of those times. After taking a deep breath she marched in. Most of the day was spent finding her way around and meeting everyone. Katie is the kind of person who hates not knowing people and by the time she went on her lunch break she already knew everyone in the building.

After work Katie thought she'd treat herself with her first pay check. "You only get your first one once. All the others can go towards the house" she told herself as she decided on a shower and TV. When she got home she noticed one of her neighbours outside so she went over to introduce herself.

Once again they chatted and chatted for a long time. "Everyone in Riverview have been so nice" Kate said to herself as she walked back across the road. "I defiantly made the right choice moving here."
