farewell

last day at work.

funny to think that i came in wanting to give advertising a second chance.

or perhaps it was the other way around.

regardless of how i got there, i came out knowing that i am great at what i do.

i cried a lot today. hugs that went on forever. it was emotional.

my favorite breakfast, a croissant from turtle bread co. and a jasmine tea from caribou, were my first presents.

the gifts were fabulous. especially the huge bottle of aloe from the president and my boss. the better to battle the sunburns with! daffodils. tulips. a framed photo. a starbucks card. jasmine tea. starbursts. a peanut butter rice krispie bar. it was too much, and it was too sweet. everything brought fresh tears.

but really, the tokens were nothing compared to the words.

my supervisor said that there would be a hole in the agency's heart when i leave. i told her that i will forever consider myself the agency's heart murmur.

looking back, i feel so lucky that i found a group of people to call family. it was an honor to work with such an amazing team of people. at a workplace that felt like home.

so long. take care. see you soon. lots of love. cheers. best wishes. thank you.
