is this really happening??

november 24, 2010 - my last day of work at roy's in downtown la.  it's been an amazing four & a half years.  who would of ever thought i would ever leave??  is this really happening?? <-- that was the question of the week in the office between clari and i.


it's been a rough six months.  so many changes and it was really having an emotional effect on me.  my one saving grace couldn't save me, but don't think that i'm running away.  i'm so sad to leave, it hurts.  i'm leaving behind a city that i call home, leaving behind my comfortable and good life that i've been so lucky to live.  i'm leaving behind my friends and family - yes, i said friends and family because at this point, they're not just my staff or co-workers or clients anymore.  the past couple years is where i've made some everlasting friendship and i hope to take that with me where ever i go.  


i have stopped and asked myself, "i did make the right decision, right?" over and over, but i am reminded that this move will only make me stronger - i'll be able to grow, be challenged and do exactly what i'm passionate about.  i'm hopeful for what's next.  the excitement hasn't hit me yet.  i've been so consumed with closing up shop at work, making sure to set up everyone for success due to my sudden departure before the holidays.  i haven't even started packing.  i'm sure i'll have a break down next week that includes my deep breathing freak-out session.
i must say though...  i must be one of the luckiest girls around.  i have a lot of amazing friends, supportive parents, i'm moving to oahu, and i get to continue working for roy.  he is without a doubt, the reason i am where i am today.  i cannot wait to show him that he is worthy of my best work.

may the countdown begin.  
8 more days till i'm leaving on a jet plane...  don't know if i'll be back again.
