Only weeks left!


Time Has been flying by! A few weeks ago it seemed like I had barely started the semester and here I am almost at the finish line!


Its crazy to think about how I'll never have an opportunity to live like this, there's so much freedom...


aside from having to turn in homework and attending classes you pretty much decide what you're going to do with your free time. Its a little saddening but I feel like we all have to come to grips with this realization. After all, no one wants to be a professional student haha.

I haven't updated in awhile, and I feel like I need to.. so here we go!

I've been volunteering at a hospital near my university for the past semester now, I've gained a lot of insight into how the healthcare professional lifestyle is. A lot of over worked, burned out people. You have to really want it.

I've always known that Medical school would mean that for a long time your existence would consist of you solely living in a book.

and recently I've been getting more and more information about the lives people live depending on specialty they chose.

                              Of course any type of surgeon would mean more years of school, its only logical.

I spoke to a nurse about the possibility of being a trauma surgeon, her answer is one that makes me reconsider everything.

 "Oh my father was a Trauma surgeon! It's a great profession.... But I didn't have a father"



she didn't mean this literally of course.. she had a father, she even went so far to mention that she was spoiled rotten and got everything she wanted. Its just that he was always at work.

I didn't really think about the possibility of me wanting to have a family, its something that I have always seen as a far away thing. something that would happen some long time in the future.


So much to decide, so many things that might or might not happen depending on what I do after College.


It would be nice to use my sociology degree... I am interested in behavioral sciences, and micro expressions....

6 weeks left



It's been hitting me more recently that graduation has really crept up on me. for the longest I've been telling myself that life goes on and that its all apart of growing up, which is turn.

Its a bittersweet feeling, knowing that once I leave life will never be quite like how it was living on campus.

nothing to do but accept it, work, and fight towards reaching my goal.

I spoke to a someone about my situation lately with medical school and how its going to take me a bit longer to apply. I was reassured that its all a matter of how bad you want it.

Honestly I feel like I've always assumed that but its always nice to hear it from someone whose made it through and has some idea of what your struggles are.

I've realized that from now on its always going to be an up hill battle, but I'm up for the challenge.

ReBoot



I'm on spring break!

               and like most college students I can't afford to go somewhere for it ha ha. This means I have time for other things that I haven't before like training for the half-marathon I'm running in a few weeks

                yeah... in a few weeks

haha, I'm going to start recording what I eat and how I train in here.


On another note I'm learning to be relaxed and not stress about things I can't control. I'm forming a plan with the help of a family friend who is a pediatrician and hopefully things go well.

New year



     Its been awhile since I've written in this. To be honest the reason I've been so hesitant about using this blog again is because quite frankly I haven't been playing star craft 2 for some time now.


     The only reason I haven't been is because my computer can't handle it anymore :/
It lags and drops frames whenever big engagements happen. I know that I can be a lot better if I could actually micro my units instead of having a glitched image on my screen followed by a 40-90 supply loss.

Its pretty infuriating, aside from that I have to say that I've been having a rough couple of months deciding if being a doctor is what I really want to do. For the most part it is but when I talk to friends whom once wanted to do that as well they've changed their minds, mainly just because the sheer amount of school and time it takes.

I've come to realize that after really thinking about it, its what I really want. no matter how long it takes I know that if I give up without trying I'll always be asking what if.



Onto more star craft related stuff!

I'm going to completely remove what I don't need from my computer and try to figure out solutions as to how to fix it. I want to play SC2 at a high level to show others that people on the NA server aren't complete trash players.
