Little miracles




I haven't written a post in more than a year and a half. So many things have happened. So many new friends, so many new experiences, and so many little (and huge) miracles. I have no idea where to start lol.

Well... I graduated from LDS Business College last April. Got my generals out of the way and finished my medical assistant certificate. Got a job through intermountain healthcare as a medical assistant at LDS Hospital. I have been wo
rking there for about 5 months now and I love it. I work with a gastroenterologist (a stomach doctor, for those who don't like big words). His name is Dr. Melvin D. Kuwahara and he is great. My job with him covers from taking vitals and d
oing all the paper work to doing minor procedures and talking to patients about any concerns or questions they might have. This job has made me realize how much I love helping and others.

Healing for life... Intermountain Healthcare

Healthcare is definitely where I wanna be working for the rest of my life. I have learned so many cool new things! My doctor is only in the office 2 days a week (he is in surgery the rest of the week), so I have gotten to work as what is called a ''float'' a lot. I have developed experience in gastroenterology, urology, internal medicine and surgery. Being able to work with different kinds of doctors and different kind of patients
has made realize how complex and wonderful medicine is. There is new things to learn every day. My desire to become a doctor myself has grown so much!

Right now I am in finals week and should be studying calculus instead of writing on my blog haha. Work full-time and school at the same time can really kick your trash sometimes. Time goes so fast when you are busy (and when u
are not too). Some days I feel like I'm always running from one place to the other. There is always a deadline I'm trying to reach or a place I have to be at. Its crazy but I love it. I don't think I could ever go back to not working and just go to school.

I finally got accepted into BYU-Provo. I'm starting classes in January. I'm excited but deep inside terrified. My major is neuroscience. Every timeI say that word people say how smart I must be, which I think is funny. I have never see
n myself as a ''smart'' person. I'm as much of a slacker as everyone else. I love school but often find myself not putting it as my first priority in life. Choosing neuroscience as my major wasn't a hard decision to make. The human brain has always fascinated me. Also, its one of BYU's pre-med programs and since my long term goal is to become a doctor it was an easy decision to make. When it comes to my love life, I'm still single and free haha. In the past year and a half I have dated a couple people seriously, but they just weren't the right one. I Have loved with all my heart, broken some hearts and gotten my heart broken pretty badly as well. It wasn't easy but I do not regret any of it. Every experience and every mistake I have made has changed me and helped me learn so much about life and about myself.

Go Cougars!!


Just want you guys to know how deeply grateful I'm for the gospel in my life. I have seen the hand of the Lord in my life daily. I'm grateful for the power of prayer and the little small voice of the spirit that guides me and protects me. To be honest, learning that what the Lord wants for me
is not always what I want for myself was hard, but sometimes you have to learn things the hard way. In the long run I have seen that God has blessed me so much! There are so many miracles in store for each of us, if only we listen and follow him.

My beautiful roommates (hanna, I, Brooke, Katie, Sarah, Tessa and (Laura))


Moving to Provo from Salt Lake to Provo was a change, but I'm used to it now. Also, having 5 roommates can be a little bit of a challenge sometimes. One of the good things is that I live with my best friend Hanna. We have been friends for almost 3 years (It feels like I have known her all my life tho). She is the person I watch Grey's anatomy and eat pizza at 3 in the morning with. We are so different, but so much alike at the same time. She will always be my twisted sister.

Besties Forever!


My parents still live in Gandia, Spain and I miss them like crazy. Being away from them has made me love them and appreciate them even more. Last time I went and visit them was on April, 2009 (which is forever ago). I'm hoping to go see them next summer. Some of the things I miss the most about Spain (besides my family)are the beach and "napolitanas de chocolate". I miss siesta time, fresh vegetables and European life in general.

Hopefully I will be as great of a mother as she is <3<3

Any man can be a father but it takes a special person to be a father.


In conclusion, I love life and life hates me, haha just kidding. So many decisions lay ahead of me and I'm excited to find out what the Lord has in store for me and for every person I love. Please enjoy every day of life you get. Be grateful for your friends and your family. Love with all your heart and don't be scared to make mistakes. Always remember that God loves you!
