What a day.

Thankfully, there's blogging.

So much to say, but I want to keep it short. Well, basically, I "resigned" from my job today. I planned on leaving in June/July, giving me exactly two years at the library, but I was told from higher-ups that with my mention of "resignation" the notice is effective immediately, therefore being two weeks. Only, I didn't want to quit so soon, and stated this; I informed of a considerate notice, to leave in er, seven months?

Not... good, exactly, but I suppose this is, in the end, fine with me. I don't really want to leave, per se, but resignation is better than the ugly alternatives, deserving or not. In the end, I have to think of myself and keeping my resume pretty.

Of course I feel various feelings... but what's done is done. Regardless of fairness, I know I have to be gracious about it. I have to understand that some people don't care whether I am happy in a job position or not; their responsibility is not me and how I am doing. Some things come to an end and doors close, and eventually things perk up again. I can, at least, dedicate my time and efforts into graduate school, and I have my savings to fall back upon (which I was hoping to use for a greater purpose, but sometimes these things don't work out the way we plan).

I really don't know what will happen, but I'll be OK. And, I'll miss some people, that's for sure. I did meet some amazing souls in my job as a library assistant, and I helped people, changed some lives, and gained invaluable experience. For that, I am so thankful.

For now, with this door closed, I can only look to the future and the hope of another door opening, even though I know it will take time.
