Photo-shoot to Reality

July 17, 2014 at 12:54 am, No comments

·      Today was no different than any other recent day at work. Between 8am and Noon there were very few samples to collect and run tests on. My morning routine now consists of small talk with my coworkers, followed by Facebook and email on my computer. As you can imagine, this gets old very fast, so today I made a change. Since I only have one week left now, I brought my camera to the hospital. At first I was unsure how the lab guys would react when I asked them to take pictures. I never would have guessed the reaction that I got. They all were so excited to take pictures of me with everyone, as well as get photos taken of themselves. They were so hilarious because every time I asked one of them if I could have a photo of them, they said “One moment, let me get my lab coat” or “Hold on, this coat it dirty, I need to put a fresh one on”. It was so funny to see how concerned they were that they may not look perfect. They all loved the camera and had a great time taking photos. It really brought me to the reality that I will not see these people again after next week. Although I am very excited to return home, I will also miss the people here dearly. It is going to be a bitter sweet moment upon my departure but I must leave knowing I made a difference and hope that one day I can return.
