First of all....HELLO EVERYONE! I am alive! I know it has been quite some time and am so sorry I just up and disappeared. But, boy, has my life improved so much.
As some of you know, I was accepted into St. George's University's Veterinary Scholar program this past summer with the aims of completing a preparatory semester before beginning veterinary classes at the start of this year. Although I was completely ecstatic...I realized this meant the end of my tiger vocalization research which I have fallen in love with.
I always tell people one tiger changed my life. It couldn't be more true. My undergraduate research project evolved into my Master's thesis which I am currently working on now. From there, I have gained more opportunities working for the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute. Staying in Arkansas also allowed doors to continue to open for me - including an intern of the year nomination, research grant approvals, teaching assistantships, job offers from prominent zoos, and many many more.
I know this may seem like a rant and I apologize. My goal was mainly to let people know I am doing great. I also wanted to post to let people who are second guessing themselves know that their lives will not fall apart if you do not get into the vet school of your dream. You may find your true passion waiting just around the corner!
So....How is everyone?!
