An African-American With A Desire To Inspire.
Tomorrow will mark the first day of my final clinical rotation of medical school. As I’m sitting here typing this, I can’t help but feel a strong sense of awe and wonder about how far I’ve come in my medical education. After spending so much time regarding the end of my fourth-year as a time […]
Read MoreWelp, there goes another week. It pretty much flew by just as fast as the previous week did, and I don’t know how to feel about that. I’m loving my time in fourth-year right now and as they always say, times flies when you’re having fun. I don’t really want the rest of this year […]
Read MoreI must say, this week flew by pretty fast…I legit feel like I just finished typing up last week’s post. 😅 The completion of this week marks the halfway point in my current rotation, which means that I’m a week closer to Match Day as well as to graduation!

Read MoreAfter my scarring camping experience as a Boy Scout in 5th grade (I quit Boy Scouts shortly after this escapade), I swore to myself that I would never go to a camp again.

Read MoreWell, just like every other year, Daylight Savings got me all messed up this morning. It never seems to fail; I always know it’s coming up and I try to prepare myself for it but once the day finally arrives, I usually find myself mentally discombobulated as I begin to process the fact that I’ve […]
Read MoreYou know, it’s hilarious just how pumped and bright-eyed I ALWAYS seem to be right after a break from school, only to be brutally reminded about what’s really good when I get slammed with work to do as soon as my first week back starts. And I’m not even necessarily talking about the work I […]
Read MoreWelp, here we are again. The beginning of yet another rotation. I start my Neurology rotation tomorrow and judging by the email I received over the weekend regarding scheduling and the expectations of this new rotation, it’s going to be a really busy four weeks. Well, technically I’ll be in this clerkship for six weeks […]
