Just turned 21 when I got my EMT-B.

I'll be 22 when I graduate nursing school with my BSN. That is kind of a scary thought haha And if I can land an ICU job right away then it's ACNP at age 24 :wacko:

I was 19 when I got done emt-b school and started with a private ambulance company; 20 when I got into the local ER as a tech. Being there pushes me so much to remember why I wanted to get into this field.
