Hello One and All!
So big news of the week - I finished my second year of medical school! I'm
half way there! I took my last exam for classwork yesterday! It's hard to
believe that two years have flown by! What started as a dream as a little girl
has bloomed into reality. I remember telling everyone that I was going to be a
doctor when I grew up and now I'm almost there! In just two years I will
actually be a doctor! The next two years is going to be spent learning in the
hospital (called rotations) and actually seeing patients! I'm so excited! I'm
moving down to Pueblo at the beginning of August and will be on rotations in the
hospital down there for the year.
But before all that, I have to take boards :( My boards are scheduled for
the end of June so I have two months of intense prep and studying before. I'm
asking for prayers, luck, and whatever good juju you can send my way! After
boards I will have a little less than two weeks at home in California before
heading back for a 2 week training program before rotations begin. Everything
seems to be falling into place :)
Tomorrow I leave for Guatemala for a medical mission trip. I am so excited
to be finally giving back using skills I have been honing for the past two
years. I will be sure to tell you all about it when I get back in 10 days :)
Thank you so much for all your love and support! I am so grateful for every
blessing in my life! And a special thank you for my parents who give so
selflessly everyday. They are the kind of person I am striving to be and a
constant example of goodness for me to look up to.
I love you all!
