Plans are in motion

I just received news that I'm going for my second round of Rituximab on Wednesday next week. I'm excited. I've been waiting two weeks for this call and I look forward to see whether or not any progress will be made with this medication. So far, ptosis is pretty much the same but difficulty breathing have decreased dramatically. That can be from the plasma exchange though. I just want to be well enough so I can handle other life stresses. I've said this before, but I just have to say it again. The people that are involved in health and people's well-being are miraculous. I just hope I can be half as inspirational as these people who have helped me live.
Speaking of pursing a career in health, I'm going to Berkeley tomorrow for the 2nd Annual Northern California Pre-Pharmacy Symposium. It's going to be my first time riding BART to the East Bay on my own. Hopefully, I don't get lost. I need to switch trains in between since the one that goes straight to Berkeley doesn't run early on Saturdays. It's ok if I do get lost though. It'll turn out to be an adventure :)Ahh..I have to network tomorrow because almost all the schools on my pharmacy school list are going to be there. I hope I'll be able to make a good first impression. Should I bring my resume. No..that's sort of weird. ACK! I don't know what to wear!! I don't want to be too dressed up and I certainly don't want to look casual. Pictures from last year's meeting show a mixture of students in jeans and suits. I'll figure it out by the end of today.
