So I finally graduated May 2010, woohooo!!!!! Thank goodness I don't want to see a textbook, write a paper, or do clinicals for free for a very long time. My family and Chris flew down for graduation. The weather was extremely warm and my graduation gown reminded me of Harry Potter because it was shaped weird and very heavy.
Finally after two years being away from family and friends, I moved back August 2nd. Chris flew down to move me back but not until everything under the sun could happen to us before we could move back. There was a freak lightening storm that the plane was delayed in the air for 3 hours and I had no idea at the airport and was freaking out not knowing what happened. We went to go get the rental truck the next day in the morning and I got a call my one of my teachers stating she wasn't going to officially graduate me since she did not see me in my last clinical. I was so irritated because this woman flaked on my the whole semester and it was her problem to deal with, so I was pretty stressed out. Then we get the moving truck back to the house and I get a call to pick up Addison at the Vet and I had other errands to run. So I'm still upset about the call from my teacher while I'm driving and to make matters worse, a lady runs a red light and totals the front end of my new car I got in May!!!!! What a lovely day it has been!!! So my car is not driveable and we are leaving the next day and the plan was I was going to drive my car with the two dogs and Chris was driving the moving truck with the cat!!!! So dealing with insurance agents and collision people for 6 hours, we finally got a trailer to pull my car backt to Washington!!!!
So after saying good bye to my co-workers, we finally were on our way back 24 hours to Washington. I think the other drivers on the road thought we were cruel to animals having two big dogs in a busted car riding in the back of a moving truck with 90 degree weather!!! LOL.
MEXICO!!! So for my graduation gift, Chris and I went to Mexico for a week!!! I was really excited because I had never been to Mexico, I know crazy! We went with Travis and Mindy (his brother and wife). It was an amazing experience and we had so much fun. We stayed at Barcelo Maya Caribe Beach Resort in the Maya Riviera by Cancun. We got to do amazing things: Xplor, Cozumel, Xlha!!!! Xplor had to be the funnest adventure. Xplor was this amazing zip line adventure park. We got to go on 15 zip lines that were over the jungle, got to see aligators and jaguars, do amphibian ATV rides through the jungle and into caves with water, kayak cave ride, and got to walk through under water caves. I'll post later pictures of the zip line rides since they are on our water camera!!!
I think riding the scooters in Cozumel had to be one of the best parts. Cozumel is an island off of Cancun that you have to take a 30 minute ferry and it's a huge tourist and shopping community. We rented scooters for the day and got to ride 45 miles around the whole island.
So we are finally back home and we need a vacation now to recover from our vacation!!!! I'm in the process of studying for my boards and talking to many recruiters for jobs. I'll keep you posted on whats next!!!!

Life after Divorce!
Hey everyone!!! I know it's been almost a year since I last posted. But I went through a divorce this past year, almost done with school, and so ready to be done. The divorce was the hardest decision I've ever had to make but I think it saved my life. I was so unhappy for so long and now I am very lucky to have met someone that I really love. The weird thing is I met him in Colorado but he is from my neighboring home town. I never knew what true love was until I met Chris and can't wait to spend a lifetime with him.
I graduate May 28th!!! Woohoo, thank goodness because I have senioritis really bad. My future plans are to move back to Washington August 1st. Take a review course for boards in Texas and fly to Cancun August 15th for a week!!!! My ultimate dream job is to work in cardiac pulmonary acute care clinic and round in the hospital. I don't have a definative job set up since my boyfriend will not live in Seattle but we are planning to move to Olympia.
