I am unbelievably excited and nervous. This week, I was informed that I was accepted into a Masters program for Reproductive Science and Medicine!!!! Honestly, after being waitlisted from the program and receiving a ton of rejection letters from medical schools, I thought I wasn't cut out for anything. In the meantime, I continued providing tutoring services at my alma mater and enrolled in an EMT course (more on another post about that soon!).
In all honesty, there were many times were I felt like a complete failure. I kept questioning my motives, and was so caught up on trying to please others in life. I kept giving in to other people's opinions, and allowing it to change my approach for my future. All along, I should've been focused on my dreams and goals. The negative opinions of other people were never going to allow me to be where I needed to be because I kept focusing on where others wanted me to be.
This was my life, and I had to take control of it. If you are in a similar situation, don't let anyone rain on your parade. Focus on your interests, don't just apply to medical school, graduate school, physician assistant school, or nursing school because everyone else is doing it. That was the biggest mistake I ever made, and ended up taking two whole gap years to figure out what I really wanted to do.
Remember to live life at your pace.
Some people may have a hard time understanding your dreams, and that's ok.
Nonetheless I am even more excited for this new journey ahead. All this time, I have been in a constant spiritual battle with God (if you're religious you know the feeling) cause I believed He wasn't revealing to me my purpose. But all along He was preparing me for something better. All I had to do was be patient, and remove all the distractions. It has taken me so much time to learn that Gods got me, He's holding me down, and my battles have already been won. So why have I been stressing? All good things work in His time, not mine.
I cannot believe I'll be be moving to a new city! This is just the start of many new things in my life!
I will do my best to do some graduate school updates. In the meantime, let me know what kind of content you would like to see on my blog.
Let's inspire and be inspired.
