I never always wanted to go into the profession of a PTA. When I was little I always wanted to be an Equine Veterinarian. I grew up with horses and having to deal with them being sick. I figured if I would specialize in Equines I would already know all about them. I wanted to cure Colic, twisted intestines, because I had a horse that died from Colic. A few years later I came to find out that I don't want to go to school for 8 more years than i have to. When I was a Sophomore in high school a representative from the army come into my classroom to talk to us. After he came I got thinking about going in the army, my grandfather was in the air force so it could be something for him to admire about me from heaven. That idea didn't last long because I would not want to leave Mercer County. I still liked the idea of going in the army, but I realized that I liked to help people. That year my best friend's niece was born with many diseases, the doctors told Kara, my friends sister, that Iris wouldn't live to the age of one. It's been two years later and she is still alive, she did the unthinkable. At the age of one they told Kara that Iris would never be able to walk but they assigned her a Physical Therapist to help with the pain. She is two now and almost walking by herself. Once again she did the unthinkable. This is where PTA comes into my life, doctors tell people everyday that they will not be able to walk or move their arms again, but yet Physical Therapist make this happen everyday. I want to work in a Veteran Therapy place. I want to help soldiers that come from the war that the doctors say will never walk again, walk. I would love making someones day by helping them do the unthinkable. I would never be the kind of person to say there is no hope, the doctors told you you wont be able to walk again so have fun in a wheelchair. If I don't do that I want to help the helpless toddlers that are said to have no luck with walking. That is my dream and I hope I stick with it.
Last night I was talking to my best guy friend Austin, and we were talking about college and what we wanted to do when we were little. Austin works for his dads farm which will be his one day. I know he loves to farm but I asked him what he wanted to do besides that. He told me that he wanted to be a cop but he knows he can never leave the farm to go to school because his dad needs him. When he was little him and his brother had a plan that Austin was going to run the farm during the day while his brother, Adam, was going to be a barber. When Adam got off work he would come to the farm and then Austin would go to work being a cop. Well This dream can never happen because in 2005 Adam was killed in a car wreck at the age of 9. This was devastating for the entire family. They need all the boys they can get in that family because they have all daughters. Austin is the last and only living Harner to carry on the name now. Austin went to a neighboring school and after the accident he moved to Celina. We have been best friends ever since I met him. I think the only reason why he wont become a cop anymore is because Adam isn't here for them to pursue their dream. I think it is sad that he won't finish out his dream but I understand why he doesn't want to.
That is a very very sad thing! I dont even know how i would deal with that kind of situation at all! But in a way i do not blame him for feeling that way i know i probably would too, if i was in that situation. But he should still follow his dream for his brother since his brother will always be there! That is awesome though that you two are best friends now, and maybe you should try talking to him if he lets you. You guys should talk about it and try to get him to still follow his dream. Because maybe he will like life a lot better, and his brother probably would want that for him to. Even though i totally understand where he does not want to leave the farm but i think his parents will understand.
As I said before I want to become a physical therapist assistant. I recently discovered that I would love to open up an Equine Therapeutic place for children with Autism. I know a girl from Sidney that has a place and I see how happy the children are when they leave there. I have had horses my entire life and I can tell you that they are the most relaxing animals to have. When you are on them, all your cares go away. When I run on my horse and my body moves with her strides it is like we are one. We are in a rhythmic motion. I do not know what kind of degree that I will need for this but I am willing to do it. My boyfriend is a farmer with tons of barns that he said I can get started in. His sister is a nurse and goes around to all the local hospitals. She said she can help me get some clients through the hospitals and not just Autistic children. I would love to help out anyone that needed any type of mental or emotional or physical therapy. I think it will help people grow and help me grow as a person. I love helping people in any way possible. I think that helping children forget about their struggles in their lives would be outstanding. I would feel like a better person knowing I helped out a child forget about any kind of pain they receive from the world or internally. I honestly hope that I can open up a place and get a lot of clients to help my dream come true. My boyfriend is willing to help me through this all and i know that my family will be very supportive because they know how horses can help heal.
I hate that the more I talk to people going for PTA the less encouraged I get. I want to finish school and set a good example for my future family. I was talking to my friend brock who is in AP classes right now. He is a really smart kid. He told me that in his lecture he has a 74 % and in his lab he has a 65%. This scares me because he is struggling and he is a lot smarter than me. I know a lot of people that are in the program and say it is super hard and time consuming and you have to study all the time. This is going to be very hard for me. I work at a job that i work everyday that I do not have school. I cant just have people work for me just so i can study. That is not how my job works. I find it sad that some people these days in college do not have a job or have never had a job in their life. That is just pathetic to me. Everyone needs to have that responsibility in their life. I hate that some people have all the time in the world to get their homework done and study but yet I can't get the free time to do any of it. I work from 8 to 4 then when i get home i have a house to clean, then I have to make super, then i have to clean up after supper. Then i have to feed the horses and clean stalls. By the time I get all of that done it is 10:30 and I am ready for bed. I am not looking forward to this AP class now because it is hard and time consuming. I don't think i can do it sometimes and it scares me. I just wish that they would understand some of us have responsibilities and do not get everything handed to them. Some of us work for everything that we have.
