 Hello ! My name is Marie-Soleil and I am a 19 year old student. I'm currently studying to be a paramedic at Ahuntsic College. I decided to become a paramedic because I like to help people and also be directly on the field, which is why I chose paramedicine instead of nursing. I am doing this program in 4 year instead of 3 because I felt like it was too intense for me otherwise. I have a little bit more than a year left before I graduate, and then I can go ahead and pass the national exam. I can't wait to actually meet patients and help people !  This blog was created for my English class in Cegep. I will talk more about my program, why I chose to do it, and will publish articles related to my field of study. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask ! I hope I can help people understand this awesome job, See you later ! Marie-Soleil
