#class 2026

Yippee

Here's my grad cap decorations

Being a matriculant (south african senior) sucks bro what you mean Monday to Friday I must attend school from 7:30 to 16:30 then also attend on Saturday (and Sunday occasionally) from 8:00 to 12:00

Then being expected to fit homework and studying in between

Plus I take the bus so imagine I live an hour away my bus only comes at 7am and I still have to walk a distance before reaching school, in the afternoon the bus times are 4pm and 5pm if I take the last one I arrive home at 6pm

Im gonna crash out

Let’s start counting from one to eight.

This might be the longest and most tiring way of counting those 8 numbers, but I guess also the most fulfilling one. Years ago, I have never thought about being an MD-PhD student. All I wanted back then was to become a doctor. I did dream of getting into UPCM and being part of Class 2023, but being surrounded by other stellar students, I can’t stop thinking that I’m not good enough to qualify. But here I am now, meeting these people of different backgrounds with whom I share a common goal - to improve and strengthen the Philippine health care system through research and medical practice for our Filipino people.
