Harvard Medical School - a girl is allowed to dream, and a girl can accomplish those dreams with hard work.

I’ve envied doctors and dreamt of being one of them for a long time. I went through college and then some, and pursued other majors like Public Relations, Music and even Nursing, because I was too afraid to believe in myself and commit to this goal. It is not an unreachable goal, and it is not even a once-in-a-lifetime goal like becoming a well-known actress. It is an achievable and very tangible goal, if you're willing to work for it.

I am more than willing to do so. i guess it took a couple of years of wising up and watering the confidence tree inside me. I can do this.

So, what’s next? Getting into a one-year post-bacc pre-med program (lot of hyphens). Because my previous degree is in PR from the University of Florida (GO, GATORS!!!!), I need to complete the normal pre-req’s necessary for most medical schools. 

I’ve created a list of schools to apply to, and am just waiting on one more letter of recommendation to start the application process. 

Stay tuned!
