Drinking a latte at a coffee shop by myself or with a friend.

Nothing noteworthy. I’m on the look out for one.

Depending on the day, it is either You’ve Got Mail or While You Were Sleeping.

I feel like being a nurse practitioner is really a professional dream come true for me. I also would like to teach the art of nursing one day.

I like coffee and chocolate (separate and together).
