Update

There have been many changes since February 2015; my past blog post. In February/March of 2015, the Medical Assistant quit her job, and left us unexpectedly. It was a moment that I could finally show my boss that I can step up to the position. They asked me to fill the position indefinitely, which I obligingly did. In April 2015, they asked me to officially work full time as the Medical Assistant. I was so excited to finally be able to exercise my certification and education I worked so hard to get.  It was exciting, and exhilarating. I have been in that position now for one and a half years and I am still loving my job so far. I take care of patients, assist the doctor, and build connections and make friendships.

We recently hired a Physician Assistant, and she is exactly just like my previous roommate.  It's quite weird how certain personalities can be so alike.  The PA and my ex roommate have the same mannerisms, the same speech pattern and similar upbringing.  I wonder if someone is much alike to another person, will they get along even more or dislike each other that much more because they are so alike?  Hm.. I've always thought friends who are similar get along better, but I could be wrong...

We also fired our receptionist today.  It was bittersweet.  I will sort of miss her, it was nice to finally be able to have the spotlight away from myself for a while.

I am getting my tooth removed this coming Tuesday.  I'm pretty excited.  I think it will hurt, but I hope I'll be able to recover quickly.
