So this is it my last day at Graphic Visions. I have been waiting for this forever but its kinda bittersweet. It feels like high school graduation where you know that you are moving on to better things so in that way you are proud, and you are finally free from what you have been describing for year as pure hell so you feel completely unchained and extatic. But then there is this feeling of loss like you are moving on and there are people you may not see again. I know that when I go to work on Monday I will be filled with all sort of uncertainty and it will be just like going to college. A huge place filled with unfamiliar people who are already with the vibe of the place. So I know I am going to miss the familiarity of GVA. All those people who have seen me grow up over the years.
My office is now empty except for the box of stuff I am taking with me and the cograts potted plant I got from everyone. I think what I am going to miss most of all is seeing Stan at work. Him and I planning where we will go to lunch or him just stopping by my office to see his Mrs. Bear. Its great to move on but leaving anything behind is just so heartbreaking.
I have decided so I wont miss Stan too much to bring in pictures and stuff for my office when I am ready to get all set-up. Just like in college I guess, I am going to try to fill my new space with colorful memories so I can stay confident enough to create more memories with everyone there.
I think a big part of this is I look at this place and I remember coming here as a little girl holding my mom's hand and now it really feels like me leaving here is a way of letting go of her hand. I am stepping out from behind her and really trying to succeed in the career world alone. It has been great to have this as a space where I could learn how to be an adult and what things I need to do to be a better employee and in a lot of ways a better person so I am very appreciative.
