A link to a blog and my reaction to it. Simple. Dude, read it if you want to.
Doctor? Think again. :>
My reaction:
As a kid, I’ve always pictured myself as the woman in the white coat, with an MD attached to the end of her name. Isn’t it nice? So perfect. :]
I never knew that the road to being that woman would be so rough. I saw this blog from a forum where all girls share the same reverie. Grabe. I was surprised by how hard it is to survive that you might consider giving up everything you’ve worked for.
But the blogger did not give up. For she saw that being a doctor was a passion, not a source of big bucks. That being a doctor was not a source of recognition but a source of endless sacrifices. I deeply thought about it. Twice. Thrice. But after all the thinking, I realized I still wanted to discover those on my own.
And what I need to instill in my mind now is focus. Concentration. I need to pay much attention to every single step of the way. I need to stop paying attention to things that don’t really need much of it.
Click the link above and think again.
But after I’ve read the whole article, this is what I’ve learned;
People who have “sour grapes” think that recognition every doctor gets isn’t enough for everything they’ve done the time they were studying or more often, they think otherwise. But passionate doctors think that there’s more to a white coat and an MD to their name. More to the universities they came from or the degrees they have. Every single second they have spent in Med School is paid off effortlessly by every single patient’s smile, for by that they know they have done their job well.
I want to be a doctor. No matter what. I want to be a BS Health Sciences Graduate hailing from the Ateneo De Manila University. I want to be a certified doctor from the Ateneo School of Medicine and Public Health. I want to graduate with honors. I want to pass the Board Examination. I want to have an MD at the end of my name and finally, wear a white coat.
If I were ever asked on why do I want to become one, the answers are typical, yet very true. Same as the blogger. To save humanity. And my own. Be an example to everyone who aspires to be one. I want to look up to the blogger the way I want to be looked up to. I hope and pray that all these will come true.
After ten years, I still want to see this blog alive. I hope after those ten long years, I want to see my name with an MD, then wearing a white coat.
Hope your dreams do come true too. ;]
God Bless. :]
