			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My 5yr old daughter, Nadia, loves to dress up in the house as The Little Mermaid. One morning she woke up at 5AM and decided she was gonna be Princess Ariel for the day. She got all dressed up (wig and all!!), and she put the makeup on all by herself. For the rest of the day, I had to address her as Ariel or Little Mermaid.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1307 alignleft" title="operating-room-brag-thumb" src="http://www.k12genie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/operating-room-brag-thumb.jpg" alt="operating-room-brag-thumb" width="144" height="89" />Just recently, last Friday, I got a special tour with my friend Alison of the operating room at Richmond University Medical Center, my local hospital.  The only time I saw the operating room was when I had eye surgery at three-years-old, and of course when I watch my favorite show, Grey&#8217;s Anatomy.</p>
<p>I am currently volunteering at the hospital, and when my dad told me about <em><img class="size-full wp-image-1312 alignleft" title="Crista-brag" src="http://www.k12genie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Crista-brag1.jpg" alt="Crista-brag" width="144" height="89" /></em>stopping in the OR for a tour, I immediately jumped at the idea!  I even got to get a glimpse of my dad and uncle Michael performing surgery.  My friend and I got to wear our very own scrubs, and we had a blast walking around and learning how it all works.  I have a big interest in the medical field, so I would definitely do this again!</p>
