A New Lookie!
I did a little revamping to my lj. Nothing to get excited about and throw a party over, but it does look a little better. Wouldn't you agree?
I've decided to be a little more active with my livejournal. I don't really expect anyone to keep up with it or anything. I have a lot to say. I'm just not saying it. And maybe if I put it out there, I wouldn't stay up every night talking to Jerry about things that are completely absurd but need to be heard by someone, then waking up the next morning, cursing the daylight because I'm exhausted. So this will pretty much just be an outlet for me, but I welcome anyone who would like to contribute!
My biggest grievance lately has been my fear that nobody takes me seriously. Here I am, a married woman of over a year, supporting myself, and preparing to go to medical school. But at the same time, I still feel like so many people view me as a helpless child, incapable of doing things on my own. I happen to think I'm bright and intelligent, but it seems like I will be an eternal adolescent in the eyes of people around me. I mean, my husband and I still got put at the kiddie table at Thanksgiving, and he's pushing 30! It makes no sense. How will I ever be taken seriously as a physician if I'm still a child in everyone's eyes? Will people seek second opinions after seeing me for fear that I don't know what I'm talking about? These things plague me, and I don't know how to get over them.
Speaking of irks, I don't like to be touched. Just a note.
I'm slated to begin taking classes January 8th. This coming semester, I will only be taking Chemistry, Calculus, and maybe a Psyche class. I've kinda plotted out how I think I will do all my classes, but plans fail sometimes, so I'm trying to stay flexible. Looking forward to it, though. I'm sure it will all be well worth it.
Anywho, that's all for now.
