A Flutterby
I’ve mentioned to a few people that I wasn’t nervous when I interviewed for my new job. It was a first for me, I tend to get nervous the second before I do something like that. I thought I’d be nervous when I told my former boss that I was leaving, but he expected it and all I ended up doing in the meeting was grin like a fool. Haha.
The first time I felt nervous was when I emailed my resignation to him and HR. I thought about it for a second and clicked send. No biggie.
The second time I felt nervous was when I was leaving work for the last time. Since my last day was Sunday, there wasn’t really anyone around. I just logged out of each program, sent an email saying good bye to everyone, grabbed my bamboo plant and walked out. I got butterflies when I thought about the fact that I was leaving and wouldn’t be back. That I couldn’t go back. It was an interesting realization.
I’m proud of my time at Vyvx though. I met so many good people and learned a lot. My time there was shorter than I had originally anticipated but it’s all right. I have only good memories from there.
The phase in life we are about to enter is pretty huge. It feels like it’s more like the next book, rather than just a new chapter. Who knows though. Only time will tell.
Tomorrow I’m flying back to Denver for four days of training. I’m mentally prepared to absorb a ton of information. I’m rearing to go actually. Once I’m done in Denver, I’ll fly back, pack up the last little bit and drive out to Pasadena (Matt in the U-Haul, me in the car).
I’m thinking the flutterby will be back when we are driving out of Tulsa. Just like Korea, Tulsa holds a special place in my heart. I’m sad to go but I know it’s time. My nervousness will probably pass after being on the road for a few miles though… because what I thrive on is change and big changes are coming our way!
