Tomorrow Work Starts ... Again

Tomorrow I start my new job! It's very likely the last time I will ever have to "pay my dues" for a sweet future job by resume building using no-pay internship and externship positions for the rest of my life, thankfully. It's nice to do things ~~pro bono~~ pro humanitate but it's far nicer to do them and be rewarded with more than just experience. When I was in college, I might have been very nervous about my first day, but at this stage I feel a lot more confident, even if I might be unprepared for what I'm doing in the beginning.

I'm excited for my sister, who's had a wonderful time at the Kripalu Yoga Institute in Stockbridge, MA, and is now about to move on to her next job - as of late, possibly New York! I am a warm-weather person, but I love NYC. While I wouldn't think of attempting to raise a family there, I wouldn't be averse to living there at some point for a little while before kids come along - I think "the City" is probably my fourth-favorite city in the U.S., after Seattle, the South Florida/Florida Keys area, and New Orleans - so it would be a really sweet trip if she did end up there, but wherever she ends up, I just hope it's a good job and something she likes, it'll be pretty cool to see what part of the country she moves to.
