Become a doctor and work for Doctors Without Borders

I finally decided to stop running away with ambition in my dreams.I finally am making and preparing the path to become a doctor..I am almost there…haha..many years off..or to go,but nevertheless I believe that to all who made the bold mark of posting this ambition on your personal 43 things list..We are alot further than some who just think and not profess.

I ended up getting into four medical schools and have chosen to go to my state school: The University of Colorado School of Medicine!!! Orientation starts on August 7 so I am trying to pack in a lot of time with my son this summer. I am nervous, anxious and excited all at the same time!

I’ve always been unsure about what I wanted to do with my life, but the one constant that’s always been in the back of my mind is to become a doctor. So I’ve finally decided, “Why not?!”. I’m 21 in two days and I need to stop being lazy and get going with my life!

As for DWB, I saw an episode of ER once and saw one of the characters go there and it looked like something I wanted to do, and as flighty as it sounds I want to do it.

I was accepted this year to The University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine. I have a few more interviews as well, but it looks more and more like Iowa it will be.

I am 33 years old, so I will be 41 when I am done with residency and can actually start DWB, but I think about it all the time.
