Wow, I really can’t believe that in just a few short months, I will be graduating high school. I’ve learned that the term “time flies by” really is relevant throughout your high school career, and in the moment, I didn’t even realize it. I have learned and grown so much in my high school years, gained knowledge, and made new friends. High school has been a wonderful experience, but I am well aware that this is just the start of a brand new journey. Growing up, my parents and grandparents always pushed me and my brothers to focus on academics.

When I was younger, my grandfather suffered from a heart attack and required surgery. I am very blessed that he is still here with me today, and it amazed me how the doctors, nurses, and surgeons worked together, and saved my grandpa’s life. It truly fascinated me and made me realize, wow, that is what I want to do.

As I attend college as an undergraduate, I plan to take pre-med courses and major in either biology or neuroscience. What exactly in the medical field do I want to do? I am not certain about that yet, but I have been interested in surgery (particularly a neurosurgeon), and optometry. I’m leaning towards this career path because I would truly be living my dream of having the opportunity to impact someone’s life for the better. If I could make a difference like those doctors made for my grandpa, it would be the most amazing thing
