Final day at WACCO

Wow, it's finally here. I had been wondering how it would go - my last day at WACCO (... for a while). I've been with WACCO since late 2000 when I started out as an IT Trainee who knew absolutely nothing about IT or life in general. Then, joining WACCO was a big adventure and I remember the feeling of excitement and anxiety about whether or not I'd fit in, whether or not I'd be suited to IT work and where I would end up. Now, 6 and a half years later I am off on my next big adventure - China.

Things in my life seem to come in chapters and here I am at a time I am sure I'll look upon as the end of one chapter and the start of the next. I've started to reflect (possibly prematurely) upon my time at WACCO and MAN I've grown up here. When I started here I was 18 and very green to the world. Since coming here I've been through Uni, grown as a person both professionally and personally, been through two long-term relationships and their eventual demise and the divorce of my parents - not to mention the experiences with friends and my ciblings!

As I am set to leave Tassie and almost everyone and everything in the world that I hold dear, I am a little nervous but also excited. So begins the next chapter - one that I hope is full of life, of good experiences and people and one that I can look back upon when I'm older with pride. That I can reminisce about and smile and that will positively impact upon the next chapter in a way that my WACCO days have positively impacted upon myself to date.
