stormdracona"With great power comes great responsibility." Why my mother said this to me today I think was because she KNEW my status was going to come get me in the arse today when it came to responsibility.
Being 2nd youngest in the US an first youngest in California has its perks mind you but being 'famous' in the medical world has draw backs. My last doctors appointment it was rather amusing, they had the newspapers the did on me in shadow boxes in the main office. Well a 15 yearold came in having read my article back when. I came in alittle later while she was asking everyone questions. Sadly they couldn't really answer the 'teenage'(peer pressure on food etc) questions since well er that was kinda my forte ;P
So Amelia bout had a happy spazz when I walked in and told the girl "This is April." Everyone in the waiting room shut up an looked at me then the girl looked at the article looked at me. Covered her mouth an bout had a heart attack going "OMG ITS YOU!" I don't think I've ever felt so awkward especially when she looked at the comparison an started to cry abit. I do too sometimes its scary the difference. I felt bad though since I had no idea she'd read my article when it first came out! So I was also extremely confused until she told me thats how she found Dr. Dahiya. It'd taken her so long because he'd moved his office from working with McClogan while she was trying to get in so she couldn't until now.
Almost 2 hours later answering questions an giving the poor thing my cell number.
Anyways so she called asking for help with the area for a good motel to go to her appointment, while asking when the next time I'd be in the office. Poor thing still sounds terrified but not as much so. Though I get the feeling Amelia's going to try an start the teenage support group we'd planned on in the beginning with how ecstatic she is over this(me helping the teenagers I meet who come in an all). Which of course I'm supposed to be in charge of since she's in charge of the other faction with Carnie.~facedesks~
But ya busy busy~goes back to looking at Motels for the girl for when she calls~
Just needed to ramble abit, thought it was amusing oddly enough. People recignize me now o.O;
