I Love My Coffee

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
I love coffee. I don't necessarily NEED to have it. I even stopped drinking it for a while and just had tea but I love the taste of it.

Then, once I start training in surgery and become a surgery tech I can start working towards my goal of becoming a critical care technician.  I have progressed in my career but I have also progressed in my personal life as well.  I have finally hit my goal weight since getting off my birth control and getting the Paragard.
