Another One Down

Well friends...another semester down...and ONE more (not including a summer class) to go!! I can't believe I'll be graduating in 7 months!! This has been a veeeerrryyy long process for me. Sometimes I feel like "ok, really, most people are finished with medical school in the amount of time it is taking you to complete your bachelors degree." But then I think, "who cares?! AT LEAST I'm finishing my degree!"

My parents got divorced when I was 16 and I promised myself that no matter what...even if I'd never use my degree...I WOULD complete it. I unfortunately had to witness my mom, who was a SAHM of 3 kids for 20 years, take life on all alone and with no college degree or work history. It broke my heart and since that point I've wanted a degree to fall back on!

And at the risk of sounding INSANE...I think I may get my Masters degree...why stop now? ;)
