I just wrote my resignation letter for Joe. I thought it wouldn't be too hard since I had to write the email to tell Joe that I've accepted the position at the Cleveland Clinic but I was wrong, it was pretty hard since it was my first resignation letter and I can't help but feel gulity about leaving my projects unfinish.

I don't think I'm sad that I am leaving the lab even though I've been part of the Nadeau lab for the last 6 years. I think I bid my farewell to the lab when Kirsten, Sheila and Toshi left the lab. The lab has not been the same since the "3 witches" has been broken up. I feel like an outsider in the lab now because I don't knit, I don't have the desire to out do the other person in the lab and our personalities now are just too different. However, I am very nervous about leaving the comfort of the research bench which I have been accustom to for the last 6 years. I am nervous about doing something very different than I am used to. I hope I'll succeed and have a great career in research administration.
