The fondest memories

Today was FINALLY my lunch date with my old bestfriend. Man do i love her. We went to eat, but ended staying at the place over 3 hours. haha. It was crazy. I think the people wanted us to get out already. Anyways...we had a great talk. We caught up, 1.5 years worth of catching up.



She told me about the job that I have waiting for me in Mission. It seems cool...I'm grateful to God for His goodness. I think it's awesome to have the offer w/out even being graduated yet.



Then...we started talking about our old memories. It's so funny how you can hold so many things in your brain. We had memories for every year since 2004. We were a couple of crazy girls back then. I couldn't believe I would do half those things, but I do think it's super funny. She kept reminding me of all the things I did, and I did the same for her. A couple of weeks ago I went out with my cousins, and one of them told me that she thought it was so cool that I have experienced a lot in life. At first I was like...hmmm...I'm not sure I follow, but then she explained. She said that she admired how I've traveled and had roommates and just lived my life. I guess I never thought of it like that. I thought everyone had the same opportunities as me. But then I realized that's not true. & that's what I brought up to tanya today. Although we've been some crazy kids, I can eventually end my life knowing that I lived a good one. I've done things and gone places that not a lot of people can say the same thing for. And the best part of it all is that I still have many years to finish this whole life thing. I'm still young, despite the many comments I make about being old, and I want to just live my life to the fullest.

Moving to McAllen sounds exciting. Tanya is great & it'll be great to be closer to her again. She's that person that can make 1.5 years of not seeing ea. other seem like a day. I love it.



At the end of our conversation, we talked about the infamous Med School thing again. I was always so passionate about it, but I guess the rocks in life have slowly drained that from me over the past couple of years. I realized that I still have the desire deep down inside, and I think I'm gonna let it rise. I want to be successful. Not that teaching or any other bacchelor's degree isn't successful, but it's just not MY type of successful. For me personally...it's not for me. SO, we decided to take our MCAT again in 9 months, and we're going to apply to med school next year. I'm so excited! I know I can do this...I believe in myself & I'm not letting anything/one get in my way this time around. I WILL be a doctor. If not, I can at least say it went down with me giving it all I had. I know I have more to give. I really do. :)
