This weekend marks the beginning of the end. Six weeks left to go before I am an Americorps graduate, unemployed, free from the two-hour commute, and ready to earn the monayz.
I'll miss my girls - Irene, stomping around the office waiting for her computer to unfreeze and forever grateful for my ability to keep her organized (I do? Okay, well thanks). Ruby, that sweet funny girl, even when stressed out, who peeks over our divider to chat. Rosie, my wonderfully sarcastic friend who grins wildly and says 'shut up' anytime I compliment her (seriously or no). Lourdes, with her thick Brazilian accent making her offbeat comments even more charming.
I'll miss the casual. Wearing my sneakers to work, rocking to music on headphones while I work at my desk, wandering around the office and starting a conversation. Being able to monitor myself is wonderful.
Well, six weeks of wrapping up projects (which means starting them too, whoops!), writing reports for the next Americorps member, and spending two hours outside every day with kids, making craft projects and serving lunch. So that's cool!
