Although it has been hectic and stressful and exhausting, the time has also been reaffirming, exhilarating, and AWESOME. I have learned a lot about myself, Virginia Tech, and what I want for my future.
I am really enjoying the relationships that are growing with my RAs and with my fellow RLC. I already feel like I have a solid group of friends here that I can count on. Seeing the community I'm living in go through its growing pains is a rewarding experience. There is no doubt in my mind that this was and is the right move for me.
However I am finding it difficult to have time to sit and talk with friends. I barely even call home anymore, which I guess is a good sign because that means I must be happy. The great thing is that I get to see some of the people I love the most more frequently. I've already seen my parents three times since I moved here. And Liz and Adam came through for the first home football game.
Ahhhh football... It has been way too long since I've had a constant dose of live VT Hokies football, and boy does it feel good! I spent too much money on getting the season tickets, but I consider it a strong investment. Fall is here my friends... fall is here.
I have even almost survived my first week of duty. I say almost because the week isn't over yet. But you bet your bottom that on Thursday night, after I have handed off the phone to the next lucky person at noon, I will be enjoying a nice cold adult beverage. CHEERS to that!
It's good to be back in the world of blogging!
