By and large, I'm absolutely ready to leave my house where nothing works, the constant sweating interspersed by rain that's like being in a swimming pool, and the job that I've never really understood because my colleagues are more than capable of doing it themselves on the rare occasions that they come to the office.
But this weekend all the closest friends I've made here came down for a farewell party. Mum, Dad and Beth had been visiting all week, and bathed in the glow of alcohol and lots of my favourite people I started to get quite emotional. If any of my family (VSO or genetic!) are reading this then thank you again for making my life so easy and enjoyable. I guess next year will be a bit like the last one - lots of my close friends living on the other side of the world. But I'll have the internet all the time and be able to keep in touch...maybe it won't be so bad!
(This post's not supposed to be about work. But if anyone's interested, so far this week everyone's still working very hard, the appraisal system I set up is working brilliantly and my colleagues have written by far the best funding bid I've seen all year based on all the preparation work we've been doing all placement. I have a warm fuzzy sense of achievement.)
