Long time no update?? Sorry for vanishing for TWO YEARS. Better late than never I guess LMAO. So uhh things that have been going on:
Spent most 2023 on clinics and had varying levels of bad time with it. Lots of 14-16 hour days at the vet school hospital. Made lots of friends and got lots of great experience tho! Lots of long nights and emotional rollercoaster and tears but still came out on the other side.
Did a LOT of traveling this year! Went to Japan with my gf in May. Got engaged! Traveled and lived on my own for the first time in my life in Virginia and Colorado for externships. Got to live and work at the clinic run by the vet who got me into the vet field in the first place cause I started watching his show in high school (thank you Dr. Jeff Rocky Mountain Vet). Fell in love with both VA and CO. Did over 230 solo surgeries, worked with amazing mentors, grew my confidence. I’ve really found who I am as a vet, I think.
Met some amazing new friends who have become like family to me.
I took my NAVLE board exams yesterday and have one more semester of clinics left before I graduate. Currently job hunting and deciding if I’m leaving the state for it. Got approached by my dream clinic offering my dream job - but it would require I move across the country. Figuring all that out rn.
Idk when the next time I’ll post an update will be, but I’m riding life as it comes right now and taking it one step at a time. Thank you little people in my phone for staying in touch with me for almost half of my life ❤️
