C'est la vie

C'est la vie. Such is life.

Life has been pretty good lately. It has been full of lots of different and some unnerving situations. In the next two weeks, I will be videotaping a national ringette championship, scoring a maritime wheelchair basketball championship and timekeeping a world curling championship. I am beyond excited for these opportunities, a little frightened maybe, but excited more than anything. These opportunities are something that will help me gain experience in a field I am studying. It is also a huge opportunity to network and hopefully someday it will all pay off with a sweet job.

That being said, I think I may have finally decided where I might want to pursue my career path (sorry that sentence is weirdly worded, but I don't know how to fix it). I have always thought about being a doctor, or something medicine related, but it wasn't until a few days ago when we started doing dissections in biology, that I realized how much I really wanted to be a doctor. The body is fascinating, and even though we were only dissecting fish, worms and sheep eyeballs, it was way different than I ever thought.

On top of all that, I have been looking into doctors without borders a lot. This would involve everything I have ever wanted. Working in an impoverished area, being a doctor, helping people. It wouldn't be overaly difficult work, pretty routine treatments, but it would be amazing. Living in another country, a developing country... it's all I ever wanted.
