Baby your a Firework!!

"You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine, Just own the night like the 4th of July"


'Cause baby, you're a firework

Come on, show 'em what you're worth

Make 'em go, oh

As you shoot across the sky



Baby, you're a firework

Come on, let your colors burst

Make 'em go, oh

You're gonna leave 'em falling down



You don't have to feel like a waste of space

You're original, cannot be replaced

If you only knew what the future holds

After a hurricane comes a rainbow



Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed

So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road

Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow

And when it's time, you'll know


This is the Song By Katy Perry I was listening to before my Big interview today!! I think She Hit the nail on the head! I let my colors burst today. I had 3 people interrogating me today as I had an intervew for the Surgical ICU NP position.

A couple questions that stuck out to me is they asked me how I measure my success in both my personal and professional life. Big Question, Tough question. I told them all about how I measure my success in my professional life such as Pt compliance, Making a profit for my practice, My evaluations, how my patients view me but when it came to my personal life I didn't really say much. I just told them about my family, my happiness about my goals and How I achieved them. I think that my personal and professional life should be kept seperate. Agree?

Also another question I was asked is how I manage conflict at work. Thats easy, being open minded, being able to listen to the other side, trying together to come up with a solution. Easy?!

I had other questions that went deeper...It was a toughy, but I think I won them over. Now the question is can I win the Docs over?! ahhh!! I have to meet with them too! Geesh! I never thought applying for a job would be this tough! I guess they want the best for their patients and it shows!

All I kept thinking about it show them what your worth!! Which is Katy Perrys song! Love it! Crossing my fingers!

I also got a call from another prospective employer today. She wanted to inform me that the position I applied for changes to a 24/7, 365 day position. I asked what does this mean?! Well I would basically be on call 24/7, have to work weekends and holidays...um no...so I declined an interview. I mean I have a family to spend time with and training to do!!!

Today I had a dreaded SLOW recovery run...my coach is killing me...no I take that back...shes making me Stronger, mentally and Physically!!! Arg!! Im getting pumped for next season already!

Tonight I will be doing a nice spin on the trainer...after I mingle with the CNY triathlon club over dinner and maybe a glass of REDCAT to calm the nerves...

Happy Training!!
