:: To Nurse or not to Nurse?? ::

That is the question.
Once upon a time- in a land called "Trina, 3 years ago" 
there was a young girl named Trina, who was desperately going to school to become an RN
then- she got a D in chemistry and a D in physiology and spoiled her appetite for nursing
and school all together so she changed her major to Radiology Tech/ Ultrasound Tech. In all honesty she thought that would be easier than going to nursing school.

Uh... this is the same Trina that created this fine blog.

"Hi, My name's Trina and I'm a school confused health occupations student"

"Hi Trina"

So I had this talk today with one of my BFF's Brooke- Brooke is in nursing school, actually started doing her pre-reqs with me and has a year left.  Me= jealous.  I think that I really am not smart enough to be in nursing school majority of the time and then I see people who are nurses and I think
" WTF. how did you get through nursing school??"
but today I thought, maybe just maybe I could power through and do it.
But I am still unsure but I need to figure it out and get something done because this feeling like a loser 
and like I have no career path is getting old...like real quick.  

Can someone please just tell me what I am supposed to do with my life?

:: things be changin round these parts ::

So.....
I was working with this one provider named Donna.
Then one day Donna took another job teaching nursing at Westminster University--so happy for her.  
So that means...I was looking for a new home in the provider area
I have settled as Dr. Abraham's new medical assistant
and in all honestly- I am kind of excited about it.  I would very much like to be getting paid more 
but I will work on that.  I am excited because Dr. Abraham does A LOT of thyroid ultrasounds and in case you haven't checked the info about me on the lil sidebar over there I want to do ultrasound for my career. 
Dr. Abraham is teaching me very well and I will eventually be doing the ultrasounds by myself! say what?!?! pretty cool right? 


This is what I will be doing

and this is what I will see! unless they have some thyroid problem :(


I have been a terrible blogger lately but  I am trying to figure out how to re do my blog
because currently I don't like it so keep cool my babies-and stay posted!

:: Steven ::

My nephew Steven
is GRADUATED
holy freaking crap.

How did he get this old?
wait....
how did I get this old?

It was strangely emotional watching him graduate.
It took me back to my graduation and how excited I was and now that I know better
it makes me sad to look at this kids just graduating saying
"I can't wait to graduate, high school sucks!"
oh you youngsters and your inability to see how bad being an adult sucks.
I would go back to my senior year in high school ANY DAY\
like...seriously.

But...
I am still so proud of my nephew
he has overcome so many challenges in the last
5 or 6 years that most young people would have let destroy them
He double lettered in sports
Baseball and wrestling
was in AP math
and actually got good grades

So proud of you Steven Keith
you are a role model to other kids who have had hardships like yours
you didn't let it destroy you
you didn't let it bring you down
and you didn't make the same mistakes you had witnessed
I love you!







I hope you continue on with the same strength and determination
that has kept you going this far.

love your favorite "auntew"
(get it? he calls me auntew cause I call him nephew ha ha)
