register to vote
Untitled 21 months ago

I registered to vote (something I’ve fantasized about since I was six and got to tour the White House and wave at Bill Clinton’s motorcade) on the morning of my eighteenth birthday, and it was GLORIOUS. My first vote was on the Feb. 5 Arizona primary and it was the most satisfying thing I’ve ever done. :)



pass the AP United States history exam

After a HORRIBLE year with a teacher I clashed with every step of the way, I gave her the ultimate middle finger by not only passing a test she thought I was too stupid for, but achieving the highest grade in doing so. I studied like crazy and it paid off, because I felt so confident when I finally sat down to take the test. The only thing I couldn’t remember was all of Woodrow Wilson’s points of peace.



volunteer at the hospital
Untitled 21 months ago

During the summer of 2007, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work in the OR at the VA medical center here in Phoenix. It was undoubtedly one of the best choices I’ve ever made for myself and I learned so much about what it takes to work in medicine—and that I really do want to be a physician.

Aside from doing tasks around like hospital, I was able to observe several surgeries that solidified my love of medicine, hospitals and doctors. Whenever I become distracted from my goal, I always have this amazing experience to look back on and remind myself what lies at the end of the road.

I would highly recommend an opportunity like this to anyone interested in medicine, nursing, etc.
