I have known for a while that I would be leaving New York and FactSet, but it seemed like it was always far off. All that time seemed to pass all at once. Now that the time has come, it feels very bittersweet. I'm mostly excited to get started on something new, but it is difficult moving on. I will miss the "Mean Streets" and the people I have met here. I won't miss the smell of Manhattan and not speaking the local language (Spanish) where I live. I also won't miss having a friend refer to where I live as "The Rat's Nest." I will miss being able to walk or take public transportation everywhere, but it's all a trade off. I'm excited about Oregon and think it will be a good change for me.
Farewell New York. Best wishes to everyone I've met during my time here. So long until our paths cross again.
