Change of life plans!

So...you know how the last post said that I'd be a traveling dietitian? Well, I lied (kinda)! 


Turns out that fate took it's course and I ended up being offered a permanent pediatric clinical dietitian position at Mott Children's Hospital! So this girl is setting up a few roots in Ann Arbor. I'm more than excited/stoked/relieved. After much thinking about which position I'd rather have, I had to put it into perspective. 


- I've been traveling from room to room, house to house ever since I left home after high school.
- Both positions are float positions (basically), but at Mott, it'll be purely pediatrics!
- I'll be able to get involved with projects and committees at Mott, make a name for myself.
- I'll be able to establish myself an address, a group of friends, and a room of my own.
- I'll be closer to home, and be able to make future plans, as I know I'll always have weekends off.


So, it took some thinking, but in the end, someone gave me a great piece of advice, she said: "I know neither position is your dream job, but which one will get you there faster?"


No. Brainer.




Oh, and not to mention, I passed my RD exam yesterday! So happy that it's over. Surprisingly a lot more difficult than I anticipated, but I passed and I'm all done, nonetheless. So now, with my free time, I'm doing a lot of reading, relaxing, and soaking in feeling of accomplishment...because I simply have no other place to be, and nothing else better to do.


Well, until I go back to work on Monday, anyway.
