A ho-hum day...

Today was cloudy and overcast just like my mood. It seems I only blog when I'm needing to get something off my chest and words seems to be my best medicine.

Today I got up and went to my school to talk to some potential incoming PTA students about the program. It's a time to have questions answered and hear a little bit of reality about the program before they commit. A second year student was there speaking as well, and I found her to be a little ray of sunshine in this otherwise drab day. She talked about how much she struggled the first year of the program, which is where I am, and then she talked about how much better the second year is. The PTA program is a 2 year, 5 semester, program. I'm in my 3rd semester of my first year. I'm looking forward to a schedule of lighter bookwork and more clinical experience. How I would love to be in her shoes... in a month she takes her boards for certification. A year from now that will be me. I will be 32 years old and just stepping into a career. I've missed so much time. Almost daily I regret the day where I let my high school academic advisor stear me wrong. I'm looking forward to my summer, though. I have no classes and no job. I get to spend the summer with my girls. I have big plans; sun, camping, sun, swimming, and more sun. I can't wait. Only 17 more class days!
