Spring Break has been quiet

Spring break has been fairly quiet as I spend the week at home doing absolutely nothing, and in my oppinion its a fantastic way to spend Spring Break.

The week before was supposed to be an easy week, I had nothing to do at all. And as of 10:30 PM Wednesday, it was easy. Then I noticed my dogs eye didn't look right, part of his eye was sticking out a bit and it was bleeding a little bit. So Mom and I got to take the trip to emergency vet that night. We left him there, the vet opthamologist looked at him the next day and concluded that it was time to remove his eye. This wasn't a huge suprise to us as his eyes have been in poor shape for a while now, so the dog had surgery Thursday afternoon and I picked him up Friday morning. He has been doing very well, though I now get to spend Spring Break playing nurse, not that he needs much more codling than I thought he would.

Otherwise things have been quiet and nice. I have to contemplate the future, ie what happens after graduation. I don't quite know what to do. I know what I want to do as a career. I want to be a doctor. However, my grades are in no situation to get admitted to medical school even if I did exceptionally well on the MCAT, which I could if that was required. So its a choice of all the various non-traditional routes, but I don't know which one to take. All are good options and would work, but they all have their various positives and negatives. Its a common theme for me to be paralyzed by choice when no choice is clearly better than another or several choices.

Anyways, something I have recently learned. You should steer well clear of any doctor of naturopathy anybody purporting to be a naturopathist. These people are deluded kooks and believe in such stupid ideas as homeopathy which is one of the most absurd claims in medicine I think I have ever heard (though its success in the late 18th and 19th century I can understand because it has virtually no risks). Anyways, there is a ND in Vestavia and he is running commercials. So you know be careful.
