A year ago Tuesday, I ventured down to DuBois meeting my new coworkers for the first time while also trying desperately to find an apartment. At the end of a very long, cold day, I found the perfect one. I went home that night, and for the first time, it actually hit me: my life was about to change like it never had before. I was terrified, excited, and thought for sure OVR would call me the next day and take their offer back- I couldn't imagine why they chose little old me for such a great first "real" job! I never would have survived the first six weeks on my own without Leila- it's a miracle she didn't kill me- I'm not the easiest roommate! Helping me adjust to being on my own, getting me to and from work each day, and so much more! My Mom- holy cow- I never give her enough credit! Truth be told, who knows where I'd be without her! Many a conversation has been had in the last year- I'm so thankful for her never ending love and support. She helpe...
