An African-American With A Desire To Inspire.

The morning of July 27th almost feels like a lifetime ago…but at the same time, it’s incredible that we’re already in the middle of December. I really had to pause for a minute and reflect that it has […]
Read MoreOne More Week!! You would think with the three examinations I had last week and with the never-ending supply of information being force-fed to us throughout these past couple of weeks that I would be crawling and gasping for air while hopelessly searching for the finish line…but I’m honestly not.

TEN MORE DAYS. That’s what’s separating me from now and freedom. Well, freedom from anatomy. Biochemistry is right around the corner but we won’t talk about that right now. Just ten days.

Read MoreShoutout to this extra hour we got today! Because of this extra hour, I was able to get through this past Friday’s lecture, get my laundry done, cook my lasagna, write this post, and STILL have time to continue studying tonight. And the best part is, I woke up at noon! 😏 One thing that always annoyed me about […]
Read MoreFirst off, shoutout to all of you that actually read these blog entries. People have actually stopped me and told me how much they loved reading my blog, which pleasantly surprises me every time. Some have even told me they look forward to reading what I post every week!

Read MoreBruhhhh my little brother turns 19 tomorrow…😳😧😰 Where has the time gone?? I still distinctively remember when I was 19, living out my sophomore year of college without a care in the world.
