Elizabeth's Story
Life
I pulled out of New Jersey in August '04 with everything I own piled in my Taurus. I made the 12 hour drive to Chapin, SC where I decided to start a new life. It is mid-January '05 as I write this and it feels like spring. It is truly awesome. It isn't an easy thing to grow up a "yankee" and move to a southern state like SC, but I am making my way here and I love it.
I bought a house shortly after arriving. This freedom is beeeeautiful!!
PS... anyone that can remember my sister Katie will not be surprised to hear that she is a missionary. She is still pluggin away at her BA in Intercultural Communications in Minneapolis. She graduates this year... finally! This summer she is going to Europe to teach English to little Italian kids. But her heart is in the missionary field in Latin countries. I am very proud of her.
College
College was a sloooooooow process for me. I kept moving back and forth from Easton PA from the time I was 15 until I turned 24. It was amazing I managed to get a high school diploma (GED style). But I persevered. When I was living in a basement apartment in Easton, working my butt off as a convenience store manager, scraping my pennies together to make a used car payment and...Expand for more
trying to figure out how the heck I was going to manage to find time to go back to college, I finally bit the bullet and moved back to ol' Bernardsville for a final bout of my nose to the grind stone. I was going to go into x-ray when I discovered Nuclear Medicine... a year less of school and twice the salary (highly recommended profession). Anyway, I got the AS in Biology, which I love!! And made it through nuclear medicine physics and numerous mathmatical classes that made me wish to GOD I hadn't cheated off the Stanig twins in 8th grade pre-algebra. So I learned it the old fashioned way... blood sweat and tears. No winter or summer vacations, just countless credits and hours spent driving to Elizabeth, Cranford, and Plainfield, NJ to attend classes that I would need to take if I wanted to graduate before turning 30. I had a lot of help and a LOT of people praying for me. I definately have some gaurdian angels and a large blessing on my life. It was all worth it.
Workplace
Working at the wonderful Lexington Medical Center in Columbia SC as a Nuclear Medicine Tech. Did my clinical work at Morristown Memorial which I miss dearly (the people AND the technology). I Do love the people and the pace here though.
