start of senior year

Only 18 more months of school and training before I enter the "real world." I am very nervous on doing things on my own, but excited because I will be entering a new chapter in my life that defines who I am. I am thinking about a few different types of jobs I would like to pursue. One of them is being a traveling nurse. Since I'm single and have no strings attatched to anyone, I can travel (which I love to do) and see the country visiting different hospitals and getting paid possibly a little more than staying in one spot. If that job doesn't work, I have thought about doing pediatric nursing because 1) the kids are easier to lift because they are smaller than me, 2) I act like a kid sometimes so I would blend right in and 3) some of them remind me of how pure and innocent life can be which I miss.

For now, though, I am living with 3 fabulous gal pals who are wonderful in their own ways. I love Natalie, Lindsay and Amanda. They are so much fun to be around and I am so grateful I get to spend the last of the school years being with them. Each one has their special trait to them that defines who they are and what I can learn from them.

I think this is going to be a great year because of friends who will be there to make it wonderful. I don't know what I would do without them and I am so grateful they are in my life.
