The experience of a lifetime

It's my last day of work today. A rather relaxing day actually given that I had expected to be overloaded with a multitude of tasks to finish before I left my position. In the end, I will most certainly miss this office. Not so much the actual job but more so the people. My supervisors have been most understanding and patient whilst walking me through the learning curve and I have learnt far more in the last two weeks than a year in school. Strange how when you are given full responsibility for something, you tend to put more effort into it. I was never this attached to my homework during the school years. And the sense of achievement when you finish something is just amazing. When a task is almost done, one that's taken you days, you're just so happy to finish with it that it really motivates you to work harder to make sure it never comes back to you again. :)

The teamwork in this department is brilliant and I've been very lucky to be able to experience it all. Although each has their own tasks, there isn't too much politics involved which makes it all a much nicer environment to work in. It is my hope to be able to work in a company with a similar positive working environment in the near future. As for now, it's time for me to move on. Finding one's own destiny is never easy but it must be done. Determination is Key! And so the hunt continues...
