I knew drivers-ed would come in handy!

As of tomorrow I am making the largest purchase (besides vet school loans) that I have ever made. I am buying a car. Yes, you read correctly. After all these years of having a license and no car to drive I have officially caved in and will be purchasing a Toyota Camry. She's hunter green colored. I have no idea how old she is though. She was made in the 90's at some point, but here on the island, it's a good deal if a car is made later then 1988.

She (and I have just in this moment while typing this have decided that it must be a a she) is a right hand drive automatic with amazing AC and and a bitchin' stereo. AC here in St Kitts is an amazing commodity, and I'm pretty psyched about it. I mean, I'm an open window kind of person, but sometimes it's just too humid for that.

The passenger door (left side) doesnt open from the outside, and she's got a few cosmetic issues, but all and all, she's not too bad. I can drive her easily up some of the biggest hills we have here (and we have quite a few of them lol) and I'll be able to get out to the other side of the pennisula with no problem (of course to and from school as well)

Pictures to come soon


(but for now some random pictures of life on the island)

The white coat makes it official!

I got my white coat today! I guess I dont have much to say about it besides it feels good to know that I'm on my way down a road I've always wanted to travel. Watch out world, in 3 years Dr Fuentes will be out on the streets!
