As many of you know, I love NFL football!!! Even though my Chiefs weren't in the Super Bowl, there wasn't a better way to spend my last day in Corpus Christi. I was cheering on the Steelers because I have a special 12 year boy in South Dakota that is a Steelers fan when the Chiefs aren't playing. However, I personally wasn't bummed when the Steelers lost. I LOVED the halftime show as I am a big fan of the Black Eyed Peas, and of course, I drool over Usher!!! :)
The point of getting together for the Super Bowl wasn't about the football game, it was about spending time with the wonderful friends that I have made during my time in Corpus. I will never forget the friends that I made there!!! There is a reason that each one of them has entered my life and became a huge part of it! As I drove home from Corpus on Monday, I was remincsing the last 6 months of my life...there were laughs, smiles, tears, and great memories!!! It wasn't until I saw the lights of Oakley, KS that I really had a good cry, all I could think about was the life and friends that I had meet and became my "family". They were the ones that let me vent to them, that I laughed with, that I made traditions with (like Tuesday night half price sushi), that opened their homes to me when I was stranded, that made me feel special on my birthday, that taught me many things about my career, and most importantly they treated me like I was one of them and not some travel nurse that came in from Kansas. They took the chance to get to know me before putting a label on me and for that I am grateful!!! Even though, I am super excited to continue my journey as a travel nurse, I will always remember the great experience I had in Corpus Christi. I had a great experience because the people there made it great!!!!
To my fabulous Corpus friends: I know that I can count on you guys to be my friend when I need you, and you don't meet people like that everyday!!!! Thank you so much for the fabulous I experience I had for my first assignment! I couldn't have chosen any better of a place to have my first assignment!! In Julie's words, "You truly spoiled me!" I'm going to miss each and everyone of you!!! Know that I will always have a place for you to stay in Delaware, so come visit me!!! I miss you guys already!!! :)
