It’s been a bittersweet week here at Gotham. Monday was the last day for two of the winter interns, and today is my last day. Wednesday, Isabella left to return home to England. In a week, I’ll be returning home to the Midwest.
But let me backtrack a little bit.
On Monday, there were sweets all around: mini cupcakes, chocolate, more chocolate…so much chocolate to celebrate the last week. Love all around the office. The Gotham girls all went out after leaving Gotham for a quick cup of coffee…that wasn’t really all that quick. We ended up laughing about the last three months we’ve had and some of the absurd things we’ve all said or done around Gotham Headquarters for about an hour. On Wednesday, we were all part of Isabella’s sweet and sappy “Goodbye, New York” Facebook post (which I totally didn’t tear up at, what are you talking about?) before she boarded her plane. Tonight, Pamina and I are going to see a show on Broadway and say cheers to everything we’ve accomplished over the last three months and all the friends–the family–we’ve made at Gotham while we’ve been here.
Gotham’s all about writing. And so now this is the part where I say that we winter interns are onto the next chapters of our lives, wherever our fancy Gotham pens lead us. I’ve learned a lo,t over the last three months, and I’ll carry it all with me to the next part of my book (maybe literally–maybe you’ll catch me on a best-seller list one day).
Cheers.
With love,
Kirsten (and Isabella and Pamina)
