a little update!
Its been a while since I’ve spoken on here, so here’s some things I’ve done since I’ve last posted 🫶
• completed my gold DofE 🌟
such a big achievement for me. all volunteering, skill learning and my expedition done! here’s some photos of my week away on the river 😋
it was so stunning but defo a lot of hard work, between the rowing and the weather, but I was with all the right people which just made it so much better! with my DofE also comes the physical skill, and I’ve managed to absolutely smash my personal best with 7.2k in an hour!
very proud, and I know it’s not perfect but I’ve come a long way and I’m going even further ⭐️ I’m planning to smash forward and sign up for a half marathon in the coming years and I’ve truthfully found love and peace in running!
• published an article 📖
I published a medical article in a magazine! it took a lot of time going back and forth between editing and submitting, then receiving feedback and submitting more drafts. But I did it! I’m so proud of myself and I know I’ve got so much more ahead of me!
• accepted to study (temporarily) with Cambridge 🎓
I haven’t been accepted into Cambridge (yet 🤞), but I applied for multiple of their extra courses (Apply Cambridge, Gonville & Caius Reading groups, CIMR reading research) and have been accepted into all of them!! I’m incredibly grateful to have all of these opportunities and I will take on and learn for my future. thank you again cambridge!!! 😍
• Work experience and volunteering 💕
When I last updated this studyblr, I was really struggling to find some clinical work experience and volunteering placements, but I’ve now got some experience in a GP and some in a hospital nearby planned for later this year. A nearby care home has also offered to take me on for a few hours a week and again I have never been more grateful for this. I might not have been locked in before but I 100% am now!!! 🙏
and again, thank you so much for all the support I’ve received on tumblr so far. thank you all so much for everything you’ve all done for me!
