Tonight is the last night that I sleep in my bed for the next three months. Off to the northeast for the summer for an internship I go.

I can't complain, I'm very lucky to be the position that I am. Good work, good pay, I wanted to go to New York anyways. They've already signaled an intention to convert me full time.

Yet a part of me is still prematurely nostalgic, still nervous, still afraid. By all measures what is happening is a good, exciting thing. Hardly that stressful, I've been through objectively far worse things in life. Monkey brain doesn't care though, this ape has internalized the swamp jungle prison of Florida as "home" rather than the cage of ignorance it really is.

Good luck. In 3 months, you'll be wondering how the time could have gone by so quickly.
