To all the seniors around the world...

Congratulations! You have made it this far.

Some of you have just received your decisions, others are waiting anxiously for college decisions, and many of you are still working on your applications.

No matter which stage you are in, I wish you all the best, and I encourage you to keep on pushing on. By now, senioritis is probably kicking in -- you are not alone! Just keep pushing yourself to do your best -- you did it before and you can do it again.

The college application process is such a weird stage. At times you feel hopeful that you will get into your reach school, other times you feel like you cannot even get into a college. Surround yourselves with the right people, the people who will make you optimistic and encourage you in your endeavors. Positivity is the key, while negativity is not.

Also, I encourage you to stay off those 'Chance me' posts on Reddit or College Confidential. Reading them only makes you question your chances at getting into your dream school. They only make you lose confidence in yourself and do not benefit you at all.

Have confidence in yourself and keep on pushing on. After all, this college application will be something you will look back at in the future.

Class of 2020, where you at?!

Cesarean Section

Important notice: To those of you who read my posts faithfully, I have something to tell you. If you notice, I publish my posts every four to five days. But as school is approaching, and as my schedule gets tighter I decided that I will write my posts once a week instead of every four to five days. After this post, I will start writing on Fridays.  I'm also curious as to which type of posts you enjoy reading the most on my blog. I want to know which type of posts I should be writing more of. Therefore, I made a poll.  Please check out the link to the poll below and vote. ↓↓↓↓ Link to poll:  http://www.easypolls.net/poll.html?p=598cac60e4b0fa6088cce9a1 ________________________________________________ Today's post is on  another surgery.

1 Month at the University of Pennsylvania Update + Important Announcement!!

In light of the current college application season, I will be editing college essays for free (no strings attached!). If you want me to edit your essays, please let me know in the comment section below, and I'll reach out to you as to where to send your essays. Do not use the 'Contact' tab on the home page to contact me because it is currently not working. Like I said before, the best way to contact me is by commenting on this post.  I am a current freshman at the University of Pennsylvania (completely done with my college applications), and all essays will be deleted from my device after I finish editing them. Therefore, you do not need to worry about whether or not your essays will be plagiarized or used without your consent. I sincerely want to help you as much as I possibly could as you work on your college applications.  All the best! -Kristine __________________________________________________________________________________ Wow!

The Day I Wanted to Pursue a Medical Career...

Some found out the career they wanted to pursue at a young age, while others found out later. Today, I'm going to share my story of how I found out that I wanted to have a career in medicine... As a young girl, I dreamed of having different jobs. I wanted to be a chef, an inventor, a missionary, a pastor, an artist, a teacher... the list went on!!! But as I got older, I found out that I didn't want to pursue most of the careers I dreamed of having as a young girl.  During 8th grade, while we were taking Physical Science, I decided that I wanted to become a physicist. I did like physical science (especially when we learned about space and the theories of time travelling), but I had a weird feeling that I didn't really want to be a physicist.  When ...
