That's supposed to be an ominous sound in the title. That's the sound of me realizing I'm living in Paris 2 weeks from today and I don't speak French. Oops.
Tomorrow is my last day of work at VSU which is really sad. We had a pizza party today at lunch to say good bye to all the interns and that was sweet. My supervisor has been wonderful and since he's out of the office tomorrow, today was our last day. It's weird to be parting because of how integrated I've gotten into the office. I've gotten to know my supervisor, yes, but I also am not anonymous in the office the way most interns are. Since I've been there 350 hours this summer, a lot of the Assistant District Attorneys know me as do the Domestic Violence Bureau Chiefs and the DV Police Officers. I've made good friends even if they're just from casual work interactions. I'm really going to miss checking in with Officer Willy whenever I need an Order of Protection. I'm going to miss the feeling of complete competence that comes from conferencing a case with a Bureau Chief and getting the plea offer that will best serve my client. I'm going to miss Milly and Telsie, the front desk receptionists who know to always come to me with a walk-in intake. There's a lot of people in the DA's Office that have made my summer what it is. It's hard to leave it all. But, adventures are ahead!
Tomorrow evening after work, Rachel is coming in from Boston to visit for a couple days. It'll be great to see her after so long and do extra fun things with her around the city. Her visit is a good excuse to do a tour of my favorite things that I've discovered here... We'll see what I end up planning.
Off to bed early now in the hopes of being rested for my last day on the job!
Love,
Anj
