office space

today i moved into my very first office!  previously i was in what i affectionately coined the "island cube," because it was, essentially, an island.  it is a cube that stands alone in the middle of a hallway in complete isolation.  it even is decorated with plant boxes that sit atop the cube, heightening the feeling of seclusion and sense of detachment.

that is where the island metaphor stops though.  the hallway which the cube divides is in a heavily trafficked area since it is in the middle of everything.  learning to block out my surroundings and finding creative ways to focus has become second nature to me.

so you can tell how excited i was to relocate.  i am so grateful now to have a door and some privacy.  as a girlfriend suggested, time to kick off my shoes!
