I want to be a doctor. Ever since I was a kid I have been dreaming to be one. Not because my parents are doctors, not because my aunts and uncles are, not because my grandfather and my great grandfather were. I want to be a doctor because I fee like it was destined for me and it was meant for me. I want to be able to help people and treat patients. I want to be able to interact with the sick and care for them. I want to be someone who people look up to because I’m good at it. Being in the medical field (Third year Physical Therapy student), has made me want to be a doctor more and more. Everyday I am learning something new and I guess I love that. I love learning all about the human body and all the pathologies and stuff like that even if sometimes you sacrifice sleep just so you could study and get a good grade. It’s a bumpy ride, yes, but I know it’s going to be worth it. People ask me why I even pursued Physical Therapy if I’m only going to proceed to Med school afterwards but I guess, there’s also about Rehabilitation that makes it so exciting. I don’t really plan to proceed right after. Maybe I’ll work for a couple of years and when I’m ready I can apply for Medicine. Who knows really. A lot can happen and a lot will happen. But as of now, as the New Year is already at it’s brim, I want to be a doctor. And I want to be good at it. I want it to not just be a profession, but a hobby. 😘
