So long sweet summer

So, I leave Rochester in 12 days and as the end approaches I realize it's a very bittersweet feeling. On one hand, I hate to leave here. I've fallen in love with my roomies, my co-workers, my patients, all of the random/fun things I've been doing, and all the learning I've done along the way. On the other, I'm more than ready to return to my home and all of the familiar people/things that come along with it...I can't believe it's been 10 weeks already! It's been real, it's been fun, it's been real fun!

This summer has been a summer of:
tubing down the Root River
dancing in the living room
Mall of America
bicycle-riding
hip-hop dance classes
drunken Pedal Pubbing
"that's what she said"
late night phone calls
tiny moments of home-sickness
Free Pie nights at Baker's Square
Helen Keller jokes (shhh)
nursing humor and geekiness
rooftop bars
BBQ eating
picture-taking
Apple Pie Shot-taking
12 hour shifts
wine-tasting
sun bathing
pedicures and nail art
random trips to ColdStone
Ben and Jerry's
downtown Minneapolis-clubbing
balloon-popping
Shark Week!
movie nights
sweet patients
long distance love-letters
'Mayo'nnaising
so much more!
