Advanced Medical Terminolgy=PASS

If the first few days of 2010 are any indication on how this year is going to go...we are going to have one amazing year. Our house is under contract, we are just waiting to see how the inspection goes but with everything we have fixed and poured money into I can't imagine this one falling threw. Famous last words I know... I've met some really nice girls lately whose maturity levels are far beyond most of the people I have met here. The kids are active with activities, have good health, have made some friends, are learning and growing up to be very mature and respectable kids, I JUST PASSED my medical terminology final. Yup you ready right. I passed! Now on to the transcription portion I go. I got 88% out of 100. A lot lower than I wanted. I really wanted an A considering the majority of my quizzes were completed with A's. But, no lie that final was super hard. I felt like I didn't even go over half of it. I figured it would have tons of terms to convert but nope. It did have four, but the majority of the test was actually knowing how systems worked, bone terms, psychiatry definitions and pharmacology reports. Oh well it's over and done and I suppose a 88% is better than failing. I won't lie I am a bit discouraged. I'm all for knowing the terms and it's interesting and all, but for some reason transcription so far doesn't seem to be a good fit for me. I have a ton of thinking to do between now and the next two years before I return to work. I'll complete my certification that much I know, but as far as seeing myself as a transcriber I'm just not sure yet. I keep getting told I have really good skills with kids, and all kids love me and should look into a career that has to do with kids. It's crossed my mind, but I just don't know. I hate being so indecisive with where I want to go in life. I wish i could say I want to be a teacher, nurse, something... but can't because I have no clue what I am good at or what would suit me. Kinda stinks. I'll figure it out eventually.
