This is the last week I will be at my current job. The finish line is in sight, someone has been chosen to replace me and I have a goodbye lunch scheduled for the end of the week. I tried not to write too much about my job on here for obvious reasons. But now that I am leaving I figure what the heck.
Actually that is my outlook on work as a whole. This past year I was under so much stress and so sleep deprived while I worked at this current job. It was a combo of work being busy, being in school and working at a "part time" internship that acted like a full time internship. But as everything else has melted away and my days at this job are coming to an end I am kinda throwing caution to the wind. I am joking a lot more, relaxed and actually enjoying my time here-however little of it is left.
I find myself wishing I could have been this person months ago and given myself the chance to enjoy my work, and given the people I worked with a chance to see the enjoyable side of my personality . But the truth is there just wasn't time, I didn't have the energy. I was just trying to get to the next day, the next assignment, the next class, and enjoying where I was at the moment never really crossed my weary mind.
But as my days draw to a close here I will enjoy the great people I have worked with for the past three years and even this last year although I wasn't really someone they recognized. Lately change is the name of the game and I am doing my best to just go with the flow and enjoy everything as it comes.
How are things changing in your life?

This is the last week of my job as well. I have no idea what the future has in store for me, but I know change is good and I am pretty dang excited about it!
Wow, changing jobs is a big deal... sometimes it's exactly what you need though. Hopefully this is the case!
I am totally just floating along right now, with no big changes planned. Yeah, life is exciting. haha
I totally get what you are saying about throwing caution to the wind, going with the flow and enjoying things. I am really trying to do that more and more because I realized I couldn't continue stressing about what is next, where I was going, why I wasn't there yet, etc. I love the outlook! Good luck on your next endeavor and enjoy your last couple of days.
It's hard to remember to take time to enjoy life when you're caught up in the moment. I totally understand that feeling. It's something I, too, need to be better at.
The changes around here revolve mostly around having a baby. It's totally scary and exciting!
Enjoy your last couple of days, you obviously deserve it :)
