Self Update

I havent updated in a while! You see, Ive been quite the busy beaver the past month or so! New job! I work at Tanner Villa Rica as a Nurse Tech (hired on to transition to ER Nurse upon Graduation). I absolutely love it! It is so much to fun feel like I'm ALMOST doing my dream job.. sort of. You see, I still have a desire to be a Pediatric Nurse.. more so than ever before. But I am already guarenteed a job as a RN at Villa Rica ER. While the ER is fun and I see lots of interesting things on a daily basis.. I have to say that I continuously feel more at ease when Children come into the ER. They are my calling! I hope when we get PEDS patients that they will be in MY rooms just so I can feel that amazing feeling I get EVERYTIME I work with a child in the hospital setting! AH.. butterflies in my tummy just thinking about it :) I'm giving much thought to the fact that I am 9 months away from graduating! (I am only counting the months that I have classes left)!!!! Where am I going to go afterwards? Am I ready for the "Adult World?" Can I hack it? Am I still going to buy my own house upon graduation?! There are so many things I would love to figure out as soon as possible! So maybe, just maybe I will! In the meantime, I have a horrible virus/cold... Ive had a fever for a week straight.. dizzy, light-headed, nauseated, ears and head stopped up, half runny/half stopped up nose... you get the picture-basically I'm miserable. And I know I should've gone to the doctor days ago but after working in the ER where people ABUSE it for a Dr.'s office.. I just cant bring myself to waste a doctor's time when I know exactly how to fight the symptoms. My only concern is that I am past a week at this point, with this dreadful illness of mine and I can't seem to shake it. Oh well.. in time I suppose. If not gone by Wednesday, I'll go to the Doctor. Valentine's Day has come and passed! It was oh so amazing! I spent the day with my dear Matt.. he surprised me by taking me to the Medieval Times restaurant! So cool! We sat at long tables in an arena where "wenches"-yes, thats what they are called-served us a heaping, delicious mountain of food: half a chicken (yes, HALF of a chicken), a rib that the meat just slid off the bone, soup (yummy), garlic bread, HALF a huge potato, and a oh-so-delightful piece of apple pie for dessert! MMMM! We watched an hour and a half long LIVE horse and jousting show/competition! Our Green Knight (reserved to our section) even ALMOST won the whole competition for the Princess's heart! He turned out to be the villain! Overall... fantastic VDAY! Hope all of yours was amazing as well!
Hope this post finds you all amazing and filled with happines :)

What is it that we dream of?

What is it that you long for in life? True love, good fortune, occupational success? What desire for our life gives us that romantic bit of edge that makes us want to wake up in the morning? For me, its love. I dream of a life filled with love! Of course this is unrealistic, but I (like so many little girls) want that "fairytale romance" that others are in awe of and envy. I want to wake up to random sweet messages left on my pillow and coming home to someone who just wants to hold me by a fire and thinks Im just the most beautiful person he's ever seen. Kind hearted and gentle, loving and strong. I want to feel so consumed by love for someone that I find it hard to breathe at times. I want to dance together at random times and in the simplest of places. I want to be able to look in the mirror and see the most blessed person because I am in love with the most amazing and feel that breath-taking feeling when he walks across my path most days.....
