Come Ramble With Me!

Thanks. I just don’t know - I just want to help people so bad. And I feel like I could be empathetic either way with my love for animals and that I have a lot of gratitude with Ems.

I hate decisions

Awww I’m sorry

Guys, I’m thinking really hard about something.

I’ve always been interested in veterinary medicine, since I love animals and medicine. But then recently I’ve been thinking about EMS. Those people have helped me so much during times I’m really struggling… and I really want to do that now. And I feel like there needs to be more kind and compassionate EMTs.

Help.

The trick I've heard is flipping a coin. Pick one side for one thing and the other side for the other thing. Flip it. If you feel like you should have gotten the other side, then go for that.

I also think maybe listing out the pros and cons of each opportunity would be good too!Just a suggestion, but both of those sound so amazing!

See if you can find any internships or programs involving either. And if you still need more time to decide then focus on prereqs that are required for both programs, and don't be afraid to take classes relating to either subject. Even if you decide you want to do the other one you still won't have "wasted" time or money because they would have helped bring you to that decision.

Oh and see if your school has a HOSA club. I wish I'd known about HOSA sooner, they have stuff that focuses on both. I did veterinary studies my senior year but they had EMT stuff too, you can find something for pretty much any health profession.

The WA HOSA conference in Spokane was a lot of fun I placed as one of the top in the state in veterinary sciences without studying

I did a lot of classes through running start through HS so both my Junior and Senior year were really light. I took 3 classes my junior year and only needed 1 my senior year meaning I was able to spend time volunteering at the vet clinic just down the road the rest of the time.

Oh yeah I loaded up on college classes my junior year so I only had 3 highschool classes (ASL, Ceramics, and AP Environmental Science) but then I had nine quarter long classes throughout the year.

Meaning come senior year I only had 1 more language credit required (which was intentional, I could have easily graduated Junior year but I didn't want to so did all but 1 credit)

And then I took a couple of other classes for fun while they were free lol.

Basically both years I didn't have to be at school till after ten-eleven, and could pretty much leave after lunch. Generally I didn't though because I loved my school so when I wasn't at the vet I would go both my teachers lmao
