welcoming myself back to blog world with a somewhat random post...

when i was in jr. high i wanted to be a doctor.  not sure why, but i had it in my head that this was what i was destined to be.  


i knew it would require work... lots of work.  


i knew it would require good grades in math and science... no problem because these happened to be two of my favorite subjects (some of you aren't believing me right now, but it's true... really it is!)


so i decided to prepare myself for the years of dedication and studying that lay ahead, and committed to reading through the entire... (wait for it) ... family medical guide.


that's right, starting on page one of this little beaut...

i began to read... and take notes, for that matter.


never was i so diligent... never was i so faithful...
then it came time to start chapter 2.  and it was even longer than chapter 1!  ugh...


ah, well.  some dreams are better left on the shelf... right next to that big ol' family medical guide with a sheet of note paper tucked into chapter 1 by an ambitious (albeit easily distracted) 11 year old.
