MCAT prep

so far, it has taught me (besides from a shitload of g-chem, verbal, physics)...

the value of AMBITION (and also the sexy factor of it, lol)

part of me really wants to fast forward 10 years to see where I'm going to end up - just to see if all my hard work gets me anywhere, and whether poor decisions from today and the past will actually retard my tomorrow. obviously, it's an admirable quality to be generous and selfless but after losing sight of myself many times during these really important college years, i'm starting to think it's never worth putting yourself on the backshelf. hopefully this is the last time that i'm going to relearn this lesson.

i'm not satisfied with the idea of being another minion, i don't want to meander aimlessly through life. i would lose too much by living that way. i want to make bold, confident strides. i want to be somebody who makes a difference, cheesy as it sounds. and i guess it starts here - a blessing in disguise.

i have massive ambitions and the process of trying to achieve them can get overwhelming, but i think it's time to be brave and just attack head-on, instead of hiding behind fleeting, frivolous comforts. those comforts are temporary, and it leads to a lot of wasted time and energy. my failures, on the other hand, will stick with me for life.
