I had an amazing night tonight! We went out to dinner with Todd and Annika (its always fun to hang out with them) and then to the Astro to see PS I Love You. Depressing movie, but much better the second time around. I think I might buy the sound track. It really brings out in me how very deeply I love him and how hard and impossible it would be for me to get over losing him. The rest of the night was nice and simple: homework and TV. Very relaxing. I'm falling behind with all the wedding stuff I need to be doing, but I'm so much more sane and at peace when I let that stuff go. I mean, I want everything to go well, but sometimes its nice to have a break from it. Maybe tomorrow I'll try to get more of it done.
I realized that I would have loved to have been a nursing major. I mean, I can't regret my major too much because of my friends, the things I've learned and most of all the study abroad experience. That is something I never could dream of not having done. (Seeing Ireland in the movie made me miss it and made me remember why I told dad I was moving there at the soonest possible moment.) The study abroad forever changed me and my perspectives. Makes the rest of my major worth being forced through. Now, medical school did pop into my mind. All my reasons for not doing it are gone. I can stick people with needles and deal with hearing about diseases where organs melt if I need to. I am still drawn to physical therapy, but I wonder sometimes if I'll really help people doing that. I mean, I know I will...I'll help people walk, regain strength and movement, but there still is something about medicine that draws me, something that says medicine is more useful. But I do love how you can create your own schedule more in physical therapy, and you can leave the field for awhile and come back without a problem. It makes it alot easier to have a family in a field like that. I know I'll love it. But I'm going to second guess myself right up until I graduate from school for it most likely. Thanks for letting me think about all that. Probably boring for you to read.
Well, I have more to say, but I'm exhausted adn its 1am. Good night :-)
