I didn't realize how long I've had this account. I guess I created it when I was an EMT. Now I've been a flight paramedic for a year. I remember many years ago wanting to become a doctor, but I didn't think it was a realistic goal for me. I didn't think becoming a paramedic was a realistic goal either and now I'm a flight medic... I still have that itch to be a doctor. Maybe half a year ago, I decided I was going to go back to school to try to get into nursing cause I feel like it is better whether staying in flight or going into the hospital. I actually signed up for classes, my base I was working at closed, and then I decided to hold off on school until I figured out my job situation. I was also having money issues (took a paycut to get into flight). I got it figured out now and it has been working out very well. My company had a travel position and they pay for my commute to work in a different state. I save a lot of money in food and gas since they pay for it, so even though I get paid less than I did on the ambulance, I am actually saving up more morny. Anyways, I still have that itch to become a doctor. My goal right now is to sign up for classes again and actually go. Hopefully in 4-5 years from now, I don't know if that is unrealistic, if I can start looking at med schools. I'm 32 so feeling a little bit behind, but I feel like if I don't do it now, I'll never get it done and will regret it.
