Everyone Is Busy

They're not unfriendly. They're just perpetually busy. Always off somewhere, doing stuff. Even when they're around their eyes are glued to their work. If I were them I would wish for the new kid to not make small talk just for the sake of it.

I wonder if this is how rich kids feel when their working parents have no time for them. I am so spoiled to be expecting the new-person treatment, to be shown around, to be talked to.

Truth be told I've never been around these types. Maybe if I think of myself as the heroine who's going to undergo some serious character development I'll endure all these changes and difficulties and be glad I took the plunge.

But in the meantime, I am intimidated beyond belief.
