There are some moments in my life that stick out - where I remember everything about that particular time. What I was thinking, how I was feeling, who was around me, what the weather was like.
Two years ago yesterday I flew out to Houston for my 2nd interview. I remember how hot it was the week of Christmas, how nervous I was to say the right things, how I thought Sugar Land and Houston were HUGE. I remember what I ate when they took me to lunch, I remember the tour they took me on through town. Every little detail about my trip out here sticks in my mind.
Fast forward two years later. This is my life, this is my town. This is home. I know that the 25 year old that came out here has been broken, hurt, inspiried and change. I can't imagine my life without this decision. As hard as it's been and as much as I've complained along the way I'm so thankful that I came out here.
I remember the day I accepted the offer to come out for an interview and everyone thought I was crazy. But I knew I had to come out, I had nothing to lose and everything to gain.
