    January: 0 hours          As we head into this week, we are starting back in person tomorrow. It has definitely been a roller coaster this last month with major surges in Covid cases across the country and we have all had to adjust. While it felt eerily like March 2020 all over again, I am really looking forward to being back in the classroom and getting back together with the class. So far, this semester has been great. I have enjoyed all of our new classes and look forward to the material we plan to cover over these next few months. May, while still 3 months away, is going to get here much faster than we all know. With this program, many of us preparing for the MCAT, and then eventually beginning applications in the summer, we all have a packed schedule. Every day we are closer and closer to achieving our dream of medical school and while the road may seem long, I am truly excited for what my future holds. Looking ahead for this semester it ...

December: 6.15 Fall Cumulative: 12.15   As we are heading into winter break, I found myself reflecting back on the first semester that I am shocked is already almost over. It has been another year filled with one obstacle after another. With Hurricane Ida, the subsequent evacuations, and the continued fight against the coronavirus, this semester was like no other. However, despite all the challenges, I am grateful we were able to continue the program in a pretty much normal fashion. I have sincerely enjoyed every minute and have made amazing new friends along the way, all while being able to live in the city I love and have called home these last 4 years.               For my service this month I did a few things. First, I again had the opportunity to create homemade holiday cards to be sent out to foster children. Instead, this time they were Christmas-themed. Along with a few other classmates, we were able to m...

 Blog 1:     ​      The beginning of my master's program definitely did not get off to the start I had imagined. After half online and half in-person classes for the last year and a half, I was eager to get back into the "normal" way of things. It had been a long year and I think we were all ready to have some normalcy back in our lives. The first week went great and I was excited to see what the rest of the year had to offer. Then came hurricane Ida. Having gone to Tulane as an undergraduate, I was no stranger to hurricanes, though throughout my time here I had yet had to evacuate. Growing up, I had experienced my fair share of major storms, and only once in my life have I had to leave town. Though at that time, I was almost too young to remember much. Knowing most people would be trying to leave town all at once, I decided to leave at the crack of dawn in hopes of beating the traffic. I was off to Florida to meet family friends and was lucky to only get c...
