You know that feeling when you're suddenly thrown in the middle of a game of dodge ball and find yourself being hit from all sides? Personally, i don't, but my guess would be something like this..
I see myself as the eternal student, the girl who wants to be the jack of all trades. I've pretty much tried every sport i came across (well, except Dodge ball) and going through phases became as common as receiving the Sunday paper! I LOVE CHANGE! but that's completely cool unless you're fresh out of school having to decide what you want to do FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!
That didn't make sense to me, I had to decide then what I wanted to do, forever? So I took the easy way out, i went into University with an open mind, exploring my take on the sciences, architecture and even photography. I had so much being thrown at me that I wanted to, just right then and there, take flight and soar into the unknown. So that's what i did...
I got onto a plane and flew across the world, to the cultural haven of China! Now i must add that Chinese culture has always been a part of my interest, so what better way to get away than immersing myself head first into the land of dumplings, kung-fu and over-dramatic movies. Not too long into my travels and studies of the Chinese language and culture, did i find myself making a decision that probably stabilized my journey more than i could imagine, i decided to join Med School!!
Now, you may think it's not a good idea for someone like me who can't stick to one thing for longer than a semester, but being away from home in a foreign land with no familiarity brought me a sense of unexplained excitement and realization. THIS is the change i was forever seeking. Being independent, adapting and working towards changing peoples lives.
So here I am, an almost 3rd year Medical student, blogging, re-blogging and simply surviving.
My Scattered Notebook is a display of my dynamic learning methods and helpful techniques i find scattered around on the web. Go ahead, be inspired. Happy Studying future Doctors :)
