Blessings
So I thought this would be my January-July 2011:
- Chill (x3)
- Finish patient data collection for thesis
- Become an expert on stats computer programs for thesis
- Write & present thesis in April and get MPH
- Chill
- Work out a lot
- Weekend job
- Chill
- Spread out wedding planning over a leisurely 7 months
- Prepare mind and heart for marriage, for med school, and for marriage+med school the combo.
- Chill
You get my point.
But God had other plans for part 1 of 2011, which I didn’t know of till the week before New Year’s. I’m so thankful for the full time job that I found at the very last minute, although it does mean that my January-July will be slightly more hectic and less relaxing than I thought. The job is such an unexpected blessing, not only because it’s an answer to prayer for financial provision, but also because my boss and coworkers have been so great to work with.
Anyway, more on job later. Here’s my revised schedule, January-July 2011:
- Work 8-5 M-F
- Weekend job every other weekend
- Scramble to finish data collection, stat analysis, and thesis writing to meet the NEW deadline of March not April (it should be illegal to change thesis submission deadlines, especially if it’s pulled UP!)
- Work out as much as possible (I MUST, especially since I won a free 6-month membership at the Sweat Gym! haha)
- Wedding planning to start……maybe after thesis craziness subsides…..
- Prepare mind and heart etc etc
- Chill once every other month
2011 is gonna be one memorable year!
