Giving Notice

I officially gave notice about my last day of work this week; my last day is set for July 7, just a mere 3 weeks from now. Yikes! I was kind of amazed about how easy it was to do something so...well, so final. In a manner of minutes, I explained to my manager (someone who recently became my manager, so I'm not too familiar with him) that I was planning on leaving Google for other things at the beginning of July. And just like that, I set my last day and started receiving emails about exit interviews, a meeting with the director, and turning in my laptop and badge in the coming weeks. I also had my leave announced in the weekly big team meeting. I feel as though I've finally set off a chain of rather life-changing events that are now going to unravel and unfold almost beyond my control...for better or for worse...hopefully for the better. :-)
