I left my first job as an attending in “my village” on December 27th, 2012 and now I’m on to my second job in what my friends call “civilization”, you know as in “welcome back to civilization”.
Yes, six months after my anticipated “date of release” I’m finally moving on. I guess I haven’t really blogged much about it because I so badly wanted it to happen. It being leaving “my village”. My one thousand two hundred and forty four day sojourn has finally come to pass. I guess, that’s not entirely fair to label it as such, after all, it’s made me who I am today and I met great people and had enjoyable experiences.
Anyway, the goal was to relocate to a much warmer climate. Somewhere where winter meant a light jacket and a scarf just for kicks. Well, I didn’t quite make it. Yes, this one goal ended up on the chopping board. Instead, what I got was proximity to friends, proximity to family, and familiarity (still in the Northeast United States). Oh well, I guess that’s a good trade-off…for now.
It’s been a crazy few weeks getting adjusted but I’m in good spirits and excited for this new phase of my life.
