As much as I feel your pain, I also envy you. I really wish I was back in school. For some odd reason, dealing with the real world is much harder than dealing with college courses. However, I wish you the best of luck on the rest of your semester.

Haha yeah, it took me a while to gather up the courage and money to buy that particular lens. My bank account is crying :p

I’m under the impression that you have local anesthesia while the OB/Gyn is performing the C-section. These days, the procedure leaves minimal scarring (given the right doctor), since they usually take great pains to make the incision as small as possible.

Ooo, love the photos you took, the colors are very vibrant! But wow, the lens costs a lot more than my camera kit, so I doubt I’ll be buying it anytime soon :/
It seems like you learned a lot at Nicaragua! Quick question, wouldn’t C-sections hurt as well, and don’t they leave a scar? :(

Oh gee, that sounds…not fun at all :/ I’ve always had a fear of dentists, so I think I might cry if I had to go through with that. But I guess no pain, no gain, so I hope everything goes well and the results are to your liking!
Good luck with school as well, hope you get to bump those grades up!

P.S. Don’t sweat the fact that you feel you’re not moving at the same pace as your friends. You’ve taken quite possibly one of the most treacherous paths to adulthood and I salute you for it! And don’t say you feel old!! You’re going to make me panic about not matriculating into medical school at 22! I don’t want to matriculate at 24+. bahhhh! :-P

Y’know even if I’m at the stage where I’m in limbo, waiting for that alternate/wait list… I still feel like my passion lies in medicine and becoming a physician. All the pain and agony means nothing when you’re pursuing your dreams and giving it your all. I mean, I’ve spent three summers at the medical school, immersing myself in the environment, following the residents and third year med students around, just learning the things they’re doing. I loved it.

And medical school is definitely not a joke; just from looking at all the medical students I’ve talked to, they’re worn out! (Even with a half day schedule.)

And I think it’s fantastic that you’ll be going to Nicaragua for your first medical mission trip! That is a great opportunity. Also, I loved looking at your photos from Taiwan.

Also, thank you so much for your comments, Tamisa. You have no idea how much I appreciate your comments/input. (And don’t worry, I don’t think you were harsh. I should have picked up a more effective strategy for my MCAT the second time around, but I didn’t. If I take a third time, I’m changing my strategy completely because it didn’t work for me at all.)

I will be writing a letter of commitment/intent and definitely following your pointers. Would it be okay if I send you a draft just to show you what I’ve written?
