It's the End of the World As We Know It...

Okay, so it isn't really the end of the world. But there a lot of new and exciting changes coming my way. 5 days ago, my best friend moved and is now living on her own. She is attending college as a new freshmen and is loving every minute of it. Her roommates are exciting and her apartment is her own. Watching her get to experience such a fun time of life, makes me that much more excited to be attending my own college and living in my own apartment. September 12th can not get here fast enough.

With every one back in school, and me just waiting to move out to go to school, I've had a lot of time to reflect on my decisions that are going to affect my future. I am going to BYU-I to get a Bachelor's degree in Public Health Science. From there, I hopefully will be attending U of U to get my Physical Therapy license. Choosing my career hasn't been easy and I have gone from one of the scale to the other. When I was in high school and deciding classes for my senior year, I took medical anatomy to see how I like medicine. I really cannot look at blood and cannot do surgeries. It freaks me out. So why the heck am I going into the medical field, right? Well, I really want to help others be able to use their bodies to their full functional state, or as close as I can get to it. But with my queasy stomach, being a surgeon is out of the question. (As well as most of the other fields in medicine) PT is a job that is in the medical field that helps with rehabilitation of injuries. So they are already healed and there won't be much blood! Bonus for me! So I found my dream job and am pursuing it the best I can.

As I look back on everything I have learned, I am more appreciative of my family and friends that have taught me everything I know. I can definitely say that I will be successful in living on my own and figuring out how to be my own person.
