Yes, that's normal behavior, now try typing exit and hitting enter at this point. If all works well, you should be out on the system with orca talking. Subsequent logins will bring the orca window up unless you told orca not to display its window when started. If that's the case, remember you start out in desktop background so if you want the desktop hit control-alt-d then to bring up the top panel with all the menus in it you could hit control-alt-f1. That top menu panel makes it so you can just use arrow keys to find applications and run them without having to use gnome-terminal. Not all applications will run nicely in gnome-terminal anyway.
