Blessed.

I've got to pause and just take note of how blessed I've been lately. God is working in a major way in my life right now, and I am excited to see what He has in store. I don't usually stop to talk about how God is working in me and for me, but maybe I should more often. The last few months, I've let busyness take priority, but I recently let God back into his rightful place - and the difference is phenomenal.

I nearly decided to move back to the Northwest in March for my last clinical rotation, but after a lot of consideration, chats, and prayer... The timing does not seem right, and I will be staying in Southern CA for a bit longer. It pains me to say it actually, but I won't get stuck here!

I recently made the mistake of giving a professor a piece of my mind - not the smartest choice on my part, since she is the one who decides where we go for our rotations. I figured I was doomed for my last rotation - that I'd be commuting an hour and a half or something. But miracle of miracles, almost everyone ahead of me on the pick list decided to "special-request" a location not on the list, leaving me with an internship at the VA hospital. The VA happens to be two blocks away from my house!

A few days later, I found out the VA is also a PAID internship. This is a huge blessing for me right now.

In other news, yesterday I passed my Advanced Orthopaedics course, which leaves just one more didactic hurdle and two clinical rotations before graduation in June. I cannot wait for that day.

God is good.
