Can't believe what a whirlwind this month has been. And yes, I'm aware that it's not even over!
Between studying for, traveling to, taking, and obsessing over the NPTE (PTA licensure exam), I've also been making the transition into my first paid position as a PTA. As of last Wednesday, I began as a PTA interim at a wonderful clinic in town. I am joining a great team and helping kind, humble people. With the advent of Thursday morning's delightful discovery of PASSING THE BLASTED THING, I feel like a weight has been lifted. Things are moving so quickly, but I feel like I am just loping along at a leisurely pace to keep up. After EVERYTHING I've done to get to this point, it's nothing I can't handle.
*Edited 01/25/2016 - not only passed exam, working in a profession I was made for, but LICENSED to boot!
Now comes the months of finding my groove, learning from my mistakes, but always being the best PTA I can be. And that means being the best me I can be. At this point in my life: 30 yrs old with life experience and the education cred to back it up; I have little choice in the matter - this is who I have become and she's awesome in every sense of the word :)
