thankful: grace.

today, i am thankful for my dear friend grace. grace and i met about a year and a half ago, when she transferred into my nursing cohort. we became friends pretty much right away, and she quickly became a rock that i would turn to when i was struggling. then last fall, when we went through our rehabilitation and mental health rotations, we became extremely close, because the two of us had been put in a different clinical group than the rest of our close group of friends. it was during last fall that we really leaned on each other, and supported each other when we both thought we were going to fail out of school.

with grace, i can tell her what is really going on there are very few people i can do that with. if i ever need a shoulder to cry on, i know grace will be there. whenever i need honest advice, i know grace will give it to me she is definitely not afraid to hurt my feelings. and whenever i need someone to just be goofy with, i know i can count on her.

yesterday, grace and i met up in westwood, and went scrub shopping! she got a job offer right after graduation at northridge hospital medical center in the intensive care unit, and starts working next week. it was such a joyous time to be able to celebrate the ending of one chapter, and the beginning of another with her.

after we each found a few pairs of scrubs, we went and got dinner at california pizza kitchen it was absolutely delicious, and then just wandered around westwood and caught up with each other and our lives.

i am so grateful for grace, and i am so excited that we are both starting our working as a nurse journey at the same time. i know there are many more adventures in store with this girl, and i can't wait!

love you westmore!!
