I started asking myself questions: “Am I even intelligent enough to be here?”
‘YOU’RE A SCHOLAR NOW, YOU’LL BE FINE’
It’s the usual, but I’m not fine. I’m falling apart.
YOU’LL THINK YOU’RE NOT WORTHY OF LOVE
It’s not all butterflies and roses, even for the best of us.
MUSCLE MEMORY
I was so complacent when it came to siting lines because you never really lose your touch, right? Or so I thought.
THE PIT I DUG FOR MYSELF
It’s 2 am and I have an exam tomorrow.
SOLVING REAL PROBLEMS FOR REAL PEOPLE
I didn’t just witness a birth, I experienced one myself.
FIRST TIME I FAILED AT ANYTHING
I began to replay the examination in my head. Surely, there was a mistake somewhere.
MEDICINE WAS NOT MY FIRST CHOICE
I wanted to be an engineer. I was fascinated by planes, their structure, and their design.
FINDING MY WAY TO MEDICINE FROM ARTS
I was one of the top students in my set, and they believed science would give me more “serious” opportunities.
SO, THIS IS HOUSE JOB?
I have seen firsthand how a poor working environment adversely affects healthcare workers.
