It is done.
Crunch time came and went, and I am happy with my decision. I am going to finish my degree. I'll move home to live with the folks for a while, and work days, so I can take classes in the evenings. One course per term, I don't want to get swamped with employment work and college work. And easier for me to pay up front for each course. No more fucking student loans. Woohoo!
So yet again, I pick up my life and move to go somewhere else and do something else. But for the first time in the past five years, the final destination is home. It feels really good. I gave my two weeks at work and now I have to start looking for new employment at home. Luckily the internet is the mecca of job seekers now, so I can do 90% of my job search online. I suppose that *some* will have to be pounding the pavement, but it's the 21st century now. eApply sounds so much better! 8-)
September 6th will be my last day working here. Whee! I pack up and leave anytime after that. Actually I may pack up and leave before that. Rather than pay more rent I think I'll see if I can crash at my uncle's place for a week. He has been more than welcoming all along, and it's a nice place to be at this time of year. Good friends, good food, good pool in the backyard to beat of the late summer heat...
So after 5 years I return to my post-secondary stomping grounds... An odd feeling I get thinking about that, as I didn't leave as a happy camper, and I didn't leave on the best of terms with a few people... I guess it will be interesting, if nothing else. In the bigger picture, I enjoyed most of my time there and since I will be returning only as a part-time student, I won't be there often anyway.
I'm excited! I don't know what will happen in the coming months, but I'm looking forward to whatever it will be. 8-)
