PROLOGUE: I wrote half of this post a few days before my exams and saved it as a draft to get back to it later after my exams. I'm a firm believer in speaking it into existence, or writing it in this case. Speak what you want out into the universe and it will come to pass. And it worked yet again. The only things I'm typing up RIGHT now is this prologue and the part of the post that starts with this ----> "But LET ME TELL Y'ALL ABOUT PHARMACOLOGY." and ends with this ----> "glad that's over lol." Read on....
Please accept my apology for this long hiatus. This semester has been A STRUGGLE Y'ALL. This semester definitely tested my steadfastness and my strength. Suffice to say, God definitely has his hands on me and I couldn't be more grateful. Here's what you missed in list form lol...
- I was nominated for the AUC Student Judiciary Committee Dr. Karl Stockhausen's Student of the Semester award and y'all I wonnnnn! I'm your May 2019 Student of the semester! A friend of mine nominated me without letting me know smh and with all that was going on with me I wasn't going to do it but I had a chance to help someone else so how horrible of a person i would be if i didn't at least try. The winner of the award gets a 5,000 dollar scholarship to donate to an organization of their choice on the island. Remember the preschool I volunteered at last semester? I decided to donate it to them. They will be purchasing an interactive whiteboard to make it easier to teach the kiddies.
- I passed all of my final exams you guysss. AND I THINK I might be qualified to enter the honor society here at AUC for my next and last semester. You need an 85 percent overall GPA throughout all of your semesters here to make the honor society so we shall see. AND yayy to Dean's list again? But LET ME TELL Y'ALL ABOUT PHARMACOLOGY. Y'all I don't know how I passed that class. I mean, I reaaallly dont know. My finals were yesterday. I took Path II first, then the Pharm exam, then the neuro exam. Path went okay, neuro went okay, Pharm...omg. It was 70 questions and i marked about 45 questions for review during the exam because I didn't know them. But I ended up getting right about average in the grades. The grades weren't released until midnight smh. I'm glad that's over lol.
- Finallyyyyyy, the talent show! The BMSA Talent show was Aug 2nd. I performed two songs this time. It went more than wonderful, I enjoyed myself and got to share my feelings through song on stage. I even teared up a little bit on the last song...craazyy. I will insert some talent show pictures and also the recordings of my two songs at the end of this post if you guys want to watch. The first song is called "Say you love me" by Jessie Ware and the second one is called "You don't know" by Katelyn Tarver. I apologize in advance for the bad quality. Uploading it to youtube changed the quality.
4th semester...CHECK! I am now a 5th semester student y'all, my last semester on the island! Its going to be a challenging semester but your girl got this. Don't get me wrong i'm worried as hell, I have sooo so many issues with family and my personal life and I'm afraid that it will get in the way of my studies like it did this semester. But I've made it through this far so I'll keep pushing despite all the odds. Thank to everyone who's been reading and following me on this journey, I hope I make you proud and bring about some inspiration in your life. Little ole me is making it through medical school successfully so far and if I can do it, anyone can do it.
Say you love me by Jessie ware
You don't know by Katelyn Tarver
