#professional school

(Cornell Capa. 1950)

It’s opening week and the todo list is two pages long

At my last interview I realized I had really good answers for things never asked so What questions do you guys wish the interviewers would have asked you?

I know I fell off the face of the earth But medical/pharmacy school is so overwhelming This is what my day is composed of, minus the hour a day I give to the gym I love it, but my social life is gone

I guess I should give a quick update. I finished my first week of medical school and wow there is so much information to comprehend. It’s easy, but there is so much that I literally spend hours pouring over it so med school is no joke. I have been talking to different recruiters about the President’s tweet and that it does not enact a ban without going through the proper policies to do so. I am still worried because if I do decide to accept this scholarship, I could be discriminated against and that is no fun. I also have an option of applying through the Army if the Air Force ends up denying me. I have no idea what to do as of now, but am sitting on it. I want to make sure my family, friends, and girlfriend are okay with my decision and see all available options. I went to a club involvement fair yesterday to learn about clubs the medical school has. I signed up for things like SOMA, military medicine, emergency medicine, OPP academy, and a family physician table. I also got involved with a study group that I will be meeting today to study for our first quiz that is on Monday. The classes we have had so far are histology, embryology, and one day of OPP lecture. I am staying motivated because this is the true future I want.

Accurate representation of professional school

So after seeing that my pharmacy school is hosting a 5k August 5th, about 2 weeks ago I decided to start training and having something to work for. Coming back from my Achilles tear has been super frustrating, and the paces I've been running have been discouraging and I was starting to get nervous that I wouldn't be able to race at a decent pace ever again and become some washed-up distance runner. I skipped a tempo last week due to stress and not eating right and kept the week to mostly Aqua running & lap swimming. However yesterday I decided even though it was 90+ degrees to venture to the track and do one of my favorite workouts 3(3x300) at what I thought was an achievable goal pace of 70. Little did I expect I was able to chip down from 69 to 64 over the 3 sets. I never would have expected that and I never thought I'd feel as strong doing it. My Achilles held up and only is a little tight today. Which I adequately planned a cross training day anyway since I kinda expected the worst. So hopefully I can run sub 23 right now? My god I can't believe I still want to put my body through this training shit again. LOL I HATE ME.
