Christel Wekon-Kemeni, (5/8) M.D.

Yooo it just recently hit me that I’m 24 weeks into my third year, which means I’m at the halfway point of this school year! That’s wild man! Unbelievable really. How’d I get to this point so fast, after only three rotations? (Internal Medicine – 12 weeks, Ob/Gyn – 6 weeks, Pediatrics – 6 weeks; […]

New Kids On The Block

Okay, I’m keeping this one short. Don’t got time to write a whole lot, and I don’t really have a whole lot to say other than the fact that I’m sadly finishing my Pediatrics rotation this week. And oh yeah, I have a notoriously tough shelf exam on Friday that I’m still actively working to […]

Switching Up The Scenery

First of all, allow me to wish you a Happy Super Bowl Sunday! The game tonight should be an interesting one. New England may be excited for another chance at being the best team in the league (yet again), but Atlanta is rising the hell up for this shot at greatness! I don’t really have […]

Hope On The Horizon

To think that it has been 15 years since over 3,000 people tragically lost their lives in the terrorist attacks that rocked the core of New York City, destroyed a massive part of the Pentagon, laid ruin to a rural field in Pennsylvania due to the efforts of some courageous passengers, and strengthened the resolve of the […]

Family Time

Well… Week 2 of summer vacation has been just as relaxing as Week 1 was. I could get used to this. 😎 My week back home in VA was comforting, to say the least. I spent a good amount of time with my siblings, who were all ready to play some Monopoly as soon as I […]

Testing My Brain on a Test on the Brain

First off, Happy Easter to each of you who celebrate this glorious day! And if not, Happy Sunday to you! I woke up this morning half-expecting the sun to be shining radiantly in the blue sky, birds to be chirping, sunflowers to be sprouting, bunnies to be hopping around, etc. You know, your typical PBSkids-looking […]
