five year plan

phewph.
jeffrey moved to kelowna a month early. i am no longer a cat lady. well, i guess i am, if you wanna get technical. i am gonna miss that little guy.

this is what's up.
five more weeks left in victoria.
mexico at christmas.
four month practicum.
and then who knows? i have a million ideas.

i'm going to start applying for jobs at international schools soon. they say to start applying in november but i don't have any of my certification done yet, so i've gotta look into that. plus i need reference letters from my current school, so i might wait until i get into my practicum and then ask the vp or my sponsor teacher to refer me. it's a confusing process.

but, mostly, i want to go to med school. i have been dreaming up this five year plan for myself. it goes like this.

2010
january-april: complete my four month practicum, graduate!
may-june: move to alberta and get a toc position
july-august: wander, jenna's wedding
september-: move overseas (argentina, i hope) to teach

2010-2012
teach overseas.

2012-2014
do pre-req's for med school.
write the mcat.
do my applications.

2014
start med school!

don't those numbers like 2013 look so crazy. who thought we'd live to see these days. class of 2018 baby.
is it really horrible that i would consider putting med school off a year, in this fantasy plan, if it meant i could graduate in an odd-numbered year?

sometimes i don't like having big plans like this. i like suprises, adventures! but this is just an idea. i have a million ideas. but this is sort of how i see things going. maybe midwifery school instead of med school. haven't made that decision yet. it would be a lot easier, but i think i'd prefer going for the whole shebang. that's more my style. all or none.
