i would tell you exactly how many more hours left until MCAT, but i'm saving my subtraction/addition/multiplication/division energy for tomorrow.
so this will be my last post for a day or so, and i just wanted to take a few moments to tell you all how pissing-my-pants-scared i am about what awaits me tomorrow.
i have been really emotional today...i'm spending the day in the bio-med library and everytime i see someone walking by with a white doctors coat or blue scrubs i get all teary eyed. not sad-teary-eyed, but i-would-give-my-left-arm-to-be-you-and-really-hope-i-do-well-tomorrow-so-that-one-day-i-can-heal-people-with-my-awesome-medicinal-techniques-that-i-was-taught-in-med-school-teary-e yed.
i can't believe that it is finally happening. it seems like just yesterday that i was making my little sisters pretend they had the bubonic plague so i could take care of them (hey, we were improvising. my parents would not buy us barbie beach buggies so how else were we expected to spend our afternoons?). i still have my very first junior scientist microscope kit on my shelf. there are slides of earthworm guts that i mounted from the dissections that i performed (partly to see how the earthworm worked and partly to gross out the kids in the neighborhood who watched in horror as i sliced into the slimy worm). and now it is 19 april 2002 and i am preparing to take the admissions test TOMORROW. time flies.
so i really have no idea how this whole process is going to turn out (will i get a decent score? will i get interviews? will i get an acceptance?), but i'm really glad that it is all about to happen - finally! no more waiting. in less than a year, i will find out if i was really meant to be a doctor. i don't know if god checks out the SDN website, but if he does, i just want to say that i've done all i can do and after tomorrow it is all in His hands.
take care you guys,
shireen
