Whirlwind
Sunday, November 9, 2008
It's been a semester since I began my journey to greatness. And it seems like everything is happening TOO FAST.
If I didn't have the proper sense of time, I would say that I've only been in Med school for a week. Things are happening so quick that, I have to admit, I haven't been living my life.
MED LIFE = [HAND-OUTS + BOOKS + CADAVER + HISTOLOGY SLIDES + SLEEPLESS NIGHTS] X 6,925 heart beats per minute
If you ever hear a single Med student say he never thought of quitting, HE'S A LIAR. Everyone I know have thought of dropping out countless of times. Everyone have cried their way through the Biochemistry hand-outs. Everyone have thought they weren't fit to survive the tortures of Metabolisms and Heart Physiology.
I have re-evaluated my intentions of becoming a doctor tons of times due to the reasons that I am being forced to willingly pay Php 91,000 for my education every semester; I am enduring a not-so-much-food-intake every single day; and I am feeling more and more dumb every moment. However, the number of pros always outweighs the cons. So, ACK. HELP ME LORD!
But hey, I wanted this since I was 9. I'm sure the whole four years of Medical education would pass like a breeze. I just hope I don't grow too thin for the wind to blow me away.
