I made this album to remind me of the many fun and amazing times I have had at SCAS, and also as a reminder that it now will be part of my past, but never, ever forgotten!

A picture story of the day
Well, I go up, and showered,
Then said Hi to the ducks!
Then made some scrambled eggs for breakfast!
Next, I watched the sun rise a little bit over the city.
And then admired my North jacket a little on my way out the door.
Here sits my car, waiting for me to take her away on a call.
All I need for a good day's work
Joey and I took over the extra desk...Yay Junior Paramedics!
Then after work, I brought Jacobs shirt to him...I didnt get the mascara stains out. fail.

Kaycee asked me to take her seinior pictures for her. I was so excited to take them! We had a lot of fun.
Some of the pictures are a little grainy-looking...I have yet to figure it out.

Price?
What is the price of a friendship? I have always considered the friendships I have to have been priceless. I treasure my friends and hold them in high esteem. But it seems I have been thrown into a position to either pick my friends, or pick the life i have been working for the last 2 years. Apparently I cant have both. I personally refuse to pick. If I don't, am I ruining both? Probably. But is it worth it to have one without the other? I guess so, because I have been put in this situation by another person who had to choose. It sucks, but my days of trying to be pleasant are apparently over.

Expectations
What is it in human nature that causes us, usually normal and carefree individuals, to have, no, to SET expectations? Why on earth do we put ourselves through the misery of hoping, wishing and wanting things to happen, turn out, or come true? It is pure agony. Unnecessary torture.
Here is what happens when we make expectations:
You find something, something that is enticing and new, different from the norms that you are used to. This thing, whether an idea, a person, a job, is so amazing that you cant get it out of your head. Thoughts and images of it are burned into your brain. Then you realize that there is no way this thing that you have found could become yours or turn to work in your favor. maybe its just not in the cards. But you still want it, think about it, let it consume your thoughts and distract you from the normal day to day activities. Then, out of some sort of miracle, this little dream or idea or person or job or whatever it could possibly be shows up, and it's like your dreams have come true.
You are elated! You cant imagine life being any better! But then something happens, that job doesn't work out, dreams and ideas that were once grand don't seem so grand anymore, that person changes. And the expectations you had, the ones that once had you so distracted, they are all just a broken puzzle scattered on the floor.
You want nothing more than to piece everything back together the way it was. You try, but as it seems the most important pieces are missing, or got chewed up by the dog, or ripped up by the lawn mower. Still there, but never able to be what they once were.
Where do you go from here? Do you buy a new puzzle and start all over again? Is it worth it to rebuild the broken pieces?

Success!
Hello Folks!
As you all know from my previous post, I passed my medic test, and right now I am working my first paramedic shift! So far, so good, as there havnt been any calls. :-( and I am guessing that it might be kind of dead because the first half of the weekend was busier than all get-out.
I have everything worked out for my trip to Japan! I have a new camera on the way and my tickets have all been purchased, and I only have 12 more days before I leave!
Here is a picture of Kansai International Airport, where I will be flying into to meet Jacob.
The airport is built on a man-made Island 5km off the shore, and is home to the longest airport terminal in the world!
I am not sure what I will be doing when I get there, but I will post pictures and let you know!
Wishing you all a happy March! Much love,
Kayla
