Growing

Growing up I just couldn't wait to fall in love and get married & have a family... and up until a few days ago I was still kinda in a rush. But then I realized, as much as I love kids and the idea of that future, I am only 22! First off I wan to be a doctor more than a mom right now, and as a doctor I will be able to provide for myself/ kids better. So I am hoping to become a pediatrician in the mean time & get to work with kids :) Secondly, I have soo much life ahead of me (hopefully) that maybe I can just be myself for a while. Maybe I need to go away for medical school, to get to know myself better & to be a better student....just maybe... but no matter where I end up in a few months or a few years, right now I want to scrapbook/ photograph all of the love that surrounds me! Like this:




(Don't worry I don't think donuts = love but it was just fun)



I'm working on scrapbooking more but right now I'm at 2 hours every Sunday night... p.s. I'm going to bake some dino cookies tomorrow so be on the look-out for those pics coming soon! yay!

Ordinary Day

I can't believe February is almost over! Here it is the last Tuesday of the month and from here I can see that my world has changed a bit in the last 24 days! I'm still in limbo waiting for the UTHSCSA waitlist to see if I made that ! I just try not to think about it...Besides, I have been accepted at Texas A&M Medical School so I am absolutely thrilled about that!! I am so blessed to just be given this chance and I am also sooo excited about going to medical school. Now I'm all about just counting down the days to Spring Break :) 11 days!

The "Beauty of Uncertainty" (KT Tunstall) about everything is that I am happy for now! I am loving the ordinary, everday things...& the song "Ordinary Day" by Emilie Mover! In my free time, I am trying to scrapbook as much as I can and it's so easy to be inspired by the likes of Elizabeth Kartchner, Jana, and Maggie Holmes with their own blogs! Check them out!

Christmas Day 2008

Merry Christmas!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas day! Go see "Marley & Me"

...I liked the book better but the end of the movie was really sweet. I'm a dog lover (with four at home!) but other than a cute dog flick, this movie made me think about the future a lot. I'm just at that age where so much is coming in my future so soon! In 4 days I'll be 22 years old!! yay! I have one more semester of college left and then off to medical school (thank goodness!).

While medical school is a big deal in itself, I am also in a five + year relationship and we both plan on going to med school...right now we have been accepted to separate schools but who knows! My boyfriend and I are big dog lovers so the movie was really special because it showed the life of a couple, shared with a dog, but I could easily see us there...but there's just a lot to think about there...But I know it will all work out, one way or the other
... Today at mass the visiting father talked about how Jesus' love let him live without fear because even if you think you have a way about doing something, he may have another, but it will work out better than you could have expected in the end... so I plan on living each day for today...just to be HAPPY TO BE! & thankful for all of my many many blessings!

Well that's all for my first blog! Good night!
