i am going to washington d.c. for those who haven't heard, i got the job there, at washington hospital center, on the cardiac unit. i start on oct 18th, and am flying out there for a physical on the 8th and to try and find a place to live.
i am:
-terrified
-excited
-exceedingly sad to leave seattle and everyone i love here.
-trying not to be sad about leaving
-constantly nostalgic for all the little routines and rituals i have come to know.
-mostly optimistic about the adventure and starting fresh.
-apprehensive about the total culture and life shock i am about to experience.
well...apart from being a giant ball of feelings, the days have been going by easier than i expected. maybe they'll get harder as we count down, but for now, i'm getting by. leaving with this:
"This is the comfort of friends, that though they may be said to die, yet their friendship and society are, in the best sense, ever present, because immortal."
-William Penn, More Fruits of Solitude
