I have decided to change my major once again.
I would do sonography, and may wait and see if i get into the program to change my major, but i just think that that would be such a boring job. I mean most likely I would not be the baby sonographer and instead I would be looking for tumors and finding out before the patient that they have cancer and that is just all too depressing for me...plus putting slimy stuff on people and moving a probe around someone's body just doesn't sound exciting....i was mainly doing it for the money...but really.....if i could have a lower paying job and like it, then i would take it....so why even bother going through the whole requirements when i most likely won't get in? and the fact that I've heard the classes are so intense(as in lots of studying and no free time) and long that I would have to quit my job. I need to work full time, that's just a given. Work at this moment with money is first.
So I have decided that I want to be a Paramedic for now, and later on down the road, I could go back to school and do nursing, or work in the Emergency room.
Why have I changed this?
Don't think of me as odd, but a life in danger just seems so exciting to me. Getting all fired up rushing to an emergency and trying to save someone's life would just be a rush. I know sometimes it will be disappointing but the feeling of knowing that you were one of the many people to help save a person's life would be so rewarding. I mean, I hear people say "Paramedics don't do anything, they are not part of the life saving team" but they really are. Without them, some people might not even live to get to the hospital!!!
Plus schooling would be about the same, nothing would really change time wise and I can take these classes at night, where if i was in the Sonography program I would have to take those during the day and work at night....which if i'm going to be working at drugmart until then, i hate night shift because the drama is so many times worse.
I think I'm going to change it. I'm going to still take College Chemistry because I want to get that out of the way, but then, hopefully they will have an EMT-Basic class that I can go to(the current one right now is in Coshocton and it's the same days and times and the chemistry) then in the summer take EMT intermediate and then in the fall start the paramedic program!!! I need to get with my counselor and talk to her about this.
I won't be rolling in he dough, but i don't care. It would be enough money, and that is all that I would need.
