Just to get you up to speed...

This is a summary of my year so far, just to catch up anyone who might actually be reading this, since I'm going to be posting on a regular basis now.
Just the big things, I'm just hitting the high points:

• May: I was in a local youth theatre's production of Les Miserables. Very fun.
• June: I was extremely surprised to find out that I only have a 90- degree field of vision and will never be able to drive. (Remind me to tell you that one sometime...)
• July: Went to church camp in Taccoa, GA, and went white water rafting for the first time. If you ever have the chance to do that, then do it! It was a blast.
• August: Went back to school. :/

And that pretty much brings you up to speed.... not many big things, even though I'm really busy.

Inspiration...

So. I've been inspired to actually use this blog.

As I've said before, I want to be a doctor "when I grow up" (sounds silly, but what's the REAL way to say it??). My mom found the blog of a med student (who is now an intern) and suggested I read it, especially because she did an interesting program where you finish med school in 6 years instead of the usual 8. Well, I decided to start from the beginning, even though that meant I'd have to read through almost 3 years worth of blog posts. But it ended up being completely worth it, because I loved it!

So even though I know that my blog will not be even half as good (partly because I'm not even out of high school), I've decided to post more often. I'm probably going to delete some posts, too, because a lot of the old ones are just stupid. lol.

Thank you for your glimpse at the medical world, Danielle, and keep up the amazing blogging!
