A couple days ago, Alina from Coffee and Anatomy tagged me on the Medical School Tag which, as you can imagine, asks questions related to medicine. Now, why the Hell would I answer these questions when I haven’t begun my doctorate yet? Well… why not!? To be completely honest with you, while I am not technically in…

  • Really, I think that without this instagram account and all these wonderful humans sharing their lives as medical students/interns/residents/attending, I would have much more trouble pushing through these hard times of sacrifice. Thank you for all you do and for making me realize, every time I wish I could just *stop*, that there is nothing else I’d rather do. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, we just have to keep walking
  • We’re all in this together. We’re all working towards something super hard and we’re all dying here trying to get to our goal. We’ll all get there at some point... 😴😴
  • “Take it one day at a time.” . I tend to be one of those that think about the future a lot. I’ll be going through the admission process next Fall, and while I am focusing on my classes and working hard towards my grades, it’s really easy to get stuck into the future. Yes, it does matter, a lot. But even if you’re not enjoying what you’re doing at the moment, you should always strive to live in the now rather than focusing too much on what might or might not happen in the future.
  • Caring about your grades is actually really hard. 18yo me could’ve never imagined. Arrived at the library at 1:30pm and planned on leaving by 8:00pm max. It’s now 10:15pm and I see no end in sight... this is harddd 😖🤪
  • Spreading myself out on this fabulous Saturday night to prepare for Tuesday’s midterm. It’s still so early in the semester, it seems crazy that we already have a midterm!! 😱
  • Trying to make a habit of hitting the library on my way home as to make sure I get a few hours of studying time. Knowing what the end goal is always help to push yourself when you really don’t want to! 🤷🏼‍♀️
  • Honestly, I think I stopped posting on here because it became harder and harder to figure out motivational things to say as my own motivation went down the drain. Last semester didn’t go so great and I’m trying my best to redeem myself. The constant pre-lecture readings, lectures, assignments and studying on top is slowly draining my ressources. I’m trying to stay positive and I’m trying to come back on here as this community is one that I love, but it is so incredibly hard to think about motivating others when you have trouble motivating yourself. I guess that’s just what the game is all about unfortunately 😩
  • Tomorrow marks the beginning of the new semester and what am I doing? I’m already getting ahead. - To be completely honest, it’s easy for me to forget why I’m doing what I do. I get ideas and I split myself in smaller pieces to try to accomplish them all... and obviously it tanks. There’s things I’ve wanted to do for over 7 years - like creating a YouTube channel for example - that I’ve never fully committed to for whatever reasons. There’s also spur-of-the-moment things that pop into my head and steal my full attention for the span of a few days or weeks and then go away as quickly as they came. However there is one thing that has always stay consistent: my wanting to make it to med school. And I want my life and my page to reflect exactly that. - This semester, I’m starting from square one and I’m planning on making it the best one to date. Are you?
  • Three midterms lining up for next week and all I feel like doing is studying for the MCAT... Sooo back to the library we go where doing anything other than what you’re supposed to do just feels so wrong! 😩
