I know for the most part the people who read this blog already know, but I like to use this blog as more of a journal to keep track of mine and Luis'adventures. Well...the results are in...
I GOT ACCEPTED TO PA SCHOOL AT ISU!!!
I am still in a bit of shock, but I am so excited! It has gotten difficult to study for my last few classes that I am in currently (reason I am posting in the middle of a weekday), but I wouldn't have it any other way. It's amazing to me how quickly life changes. Soon we will move away from this bitter cold Rexburg and have some sort of credentials behind our names. There are some things about Rexburg that I don't think I will ever miss like:
-scraping the windshield every day of the year!(which I know probably won't change for a while)
-not having my favorite season: fall (maybe we'll have to visit my brother in Logan Utah more often- the greatest place for fall)
-all the POTHOLES in the roads (you'd think after the city started charging for parking that some of the holes and divits would be fixed)
-the closet doors that never stay on their track (ugh!)
-The mud that gets tracked onto our beautiful linoleum floor
-The library that is the loudest library in the world
-The redboxes that NEVER have the movies we want to see
-the dryers that don't actually dry your clothes
But there are definitely things I will miss, like:
-Experiencing the small town feel
-Always having support
-The first snowfall of every winter (there isn't one of these in every town, you know.)
-the snow path the Luis and I made to the mailbox and laundry room
-our cheap date nights that would cost more anywhere else
-our cozy apartment (it's small, but it will always be our first home together)
Next month I graduate with my bachelors (still crazy!) and then in August I will start the program. I am already getting nervous about the LOADS of information I will be getting, but I know it will all be worth it. After my internship at Leavitt Women's Healthcare (which involved a lot of following my PA sis-in-law Angela around everywhere) I just knew I wanted to be a PA. We are still unsure about all of the details of where we are going to live, what Luis will be doing, and other important details, but hopefully we will know soon. Life is amazing, and we are so blessed. Just a side note. I was reading my patriarchal blessing the day before my interview and after reading it I wondered how long I had had it. I looked up at the top and noticed it said "february 26th" which just HAPPENED to be the same day as my interview at ISU. Luis thinks I am sign seeker, but I don't think this is just any coincidence, do you?!!!

Yay! Definitely come and visit your brother in Logan more often! I'm glad you enjoyed your internship... you'll love being a PA! If you have questions or want the 411 on the professors :) just give me a ring! I'm really excited for you!!
ReplyDeleteValerie, that is great news! I am so excited for you guys! Doesn't it feel so great to finally accomplish what you've been working towards for 4 years? Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteOh sister... little did you know that Pocatello is a mere 1 hour and 15 minutes from the place you live now. Don't get ahead of yourself... most of the things you are anxious to leave will be awaiting you in the next town. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!
ReplyDeleteBut I guess I should also say, congratulations!
CONGRATULATIONS!
