HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

So, it's been a while. Sorry
Just been busy the past few weeks. I've moved down to South Florida and will be starting class on Monday. I'm so excited. I never thought I would actually be at this point. I haven't been doing anything for the past month or so. I started reading James Patterson, his Alex Cross series, and finished all but the last book. It was always checked-out at the library. I received an email with the list of books for the first semester I need 10 books. I got all but 2 online. I also got an otoscope/opthalmoscope set online.
I really like our new place. I think it will be a great retreat at the end of the day.
I wanted to give a quick recap of how I got to this point.
I'll start off by saying that when I was little, I always knew I wanted to be a doctor. I may have imagined being something else, but it was always pair with being a doctor (i.e. astronaut and a doctor, teacher and a doctor, president of the US and a doctor). So I went through high school focusing on becoming a doctor. I was an excellent student. I graduated top 10 in my class. Unfortunately, my high school counselor steered me in the wrong direction. She used motivators (specifically money) to switch my mind to study engineering. So I started college as an Electrical Engineering major. Not a good decision. I didn't like the major so I switch to mathematics, thinking because I was really good in math, I would be fine...not so. I then switched my major to biology. This happened after failing a semester and seeing the school's psychologist. I attempted to get back on the path to medical school. I ended up having to take a year off of school. I went back to school with intentions on becoming a physical therapist until someone in my Intro to Allied Health Science class came and talked about PAs. I was sold on the profession and from then on, I've been pursuing the career. It has been a long battle. I have had to deal with many disappointments. I've had to explain my past academic failures, and I mean literal failures, more times than i would like.
But I'm in and I'm starting on a journey. So I hope to be a good guide in this quest to become a PA. I believe I can do it and my husband is confident that I can make it through. I also have a slew of family, friends, and coworkers that are just waiting for me to finish; so I can diagnose their issues. :).
I will try my best to post as much as I can, when i can.
