I'm sitting here at the cubicle in the office, looking like I'm the usual busy bee I usually am. Instead, here I am, filling in the last moments of obligation doing something I should really be doing at my own free time. But hey, it's my last day at the company, everyone's giving me a break.
Everyone seems to be asking me how I am feeling. Are they expecting me to cry upon leaving or something? I mean, I'm not exactly jumping up and down in ecstasy. But I am glad to be moving on to something that I really prefer to do. Something that's more suited to what I'm looking for in life, while still fulfilling my family obligations, like a good daughter should.
I'm dressed in white from head to toe today, complete with a white straw bag and white sandals - Michael Kors no less. Suz said that it reminded her of a movie where a couple on the fringe of breaking up deliberately dressed in white to signify/symbolise their parting. So am I doing the same??? I guess you could say that...if you were the dramatic sort and believe in symbolism and all that. (I thought I've left all these behind when I graduated top literature student some years back!)
It's almost lunch time, and in less than five hours I'll be leaving the company as someone who's no longer a staff. Surrendering my pass and my car decal too! Damn why can't I at least keep the photo. It's going to be a new beginning. Some people envy my position, while others are simply curious to see how my life will pan out. Not to worry, I'll give the envious ones some real things to be envious about and the curious cats nothing to gossip on.
Life, here I come. Prepared, undaunted, and full of joyful energy.
