I can't believe that this semester is almost half done. Honestly, time flies by way too quickly. I am closer to the start of second year medical school than I am to the start of first year medical school. And I still feel like everyday I am trying to figure things out. Mind you, I am getting slightly better grades than first semester while studying the same amount. I guess that is a small sign that I am figuring things out enough to do well.
As medical school has progressed I have really become self-centered. Honestly, my life revolves around getting my brain ready for the next exam. I buy groceries for myself, I clean up so that I like the apartment, I do practically everything for myself. For instance, yesterday I made a whole banana loaf (as opposed to making a half one!) all for me. Like I need an entire banana loaf! Not to toot my own horn, but man it is good!!!! With glazed brown sugar topping and chocolate chips to boot.
Despite feeling self-centered, I do have to say that talking with my family every day keeps me grounded and helps me realize that life does go on beyond the two-block area of the globe in which I set up shop. I truly am blessed for such a loving family that supports me in everything I do in life. The Lord has truly blessed me and I can't ever let stress and worry take over my life (despite how stressful things get in medical school) because I have to realize that I have been given a wonderful opportunity to study medicine, and hopefully make a difference.
That is all.
