Life in the fast lane!!






Well as usually for me life has been a mile a minute not only filled with full time school, full time work, and 260 hours of clinicals in my free time.....I have been even busier with a Brain MRI, Brain EEG, 2-D Echo, EKG,  lots of blood work, and wearing a halter monitor for 48 hours (which itched so bad).  I made my mom go to everything with me even in the MRI room because I was scared.  She was awesome she changed into scrubs and came with me and held my toe(because they put this Hannibal Lecter mask on me and put me in a tube and my toes where the only thing hanging out). It was really weird and loud.  I just kept on pretending I was in a tanning bed.  As far as the results well I have been a bad girl and looking up my own results which is not a good idea because I am NOT a doctor especially not a neurologist or a cardiologist and I freak myself out. So I am going to wait until I have my appointments next week before I jump to conclusions.  One thing I have realized is that life is not a guarantee and we need to make it a point to cherish every moment.  I have had some scares LATELY and really most of the things in life are things that do not really matter!!! I know I will be fine no matter what but I am trying to make a point to stop and smell the roses and enjoy LIFE a little bit MORE.  I was talking to my mom and I realized that all people do not have the determination and drive that I have....always wanting to accomplish more...save more people....learn more knowledge....be a better person.....some people are content with where they are in life...not that I am not content I just can't help to think that GOD created me with so much potential to be more....So that is why I push myself to these crazy limits but I am realizing the importance to slowing down.....and I am working on it.
Tonight is my last 8 week class so that's is one less thing. Right!
Can't wait for our summer vacation and then my little brother Matt's wedding...Until then I am dreaming of the days where the sand is so hot that it burns my feet!!!!......Ahh delightful
