I remember one night on stage, playing at a Relay for Life event, everyone was noticeably having a great time. The other band members seemed really excited, the singer hit every note flawlessly, my guitar was sounding incredible, and one could feel all this energy reciprocating from the loud and engaged crowd. A sense of pure joy grabbed me that night as I gathered my equipment after the show and people came by to say that the group was sensational and that they would love for us to return next year. The only other aspect of my life that has made me feel in this precise manner has been the study and making of science.
As with the majority of things, especially the guitar, the initial process of developing and enhancing a particular skill …show more content…
After joining her research team, Dra. Rivera aided me in understanding what really implies to carry out an investigation. This arduous process requires an energetic endeavor from the researcher, without leaving behind the rigorous mental demand that can only be rewarded with the gratifying emotion to obtain the desired results. All those research papers one has to scrutinize, and all the TLC’s I had to prepare to make sure the desired product was in fact synthesized, so I could then proceed to purify and characterize it through several sprectroscopic techniques makes for a hard but satisfying task . When I was prepared to be left alone in the lab, a sense of responsability inmediately took over me. I could no longer let others take blame for my mistakes, or not be confident enough about a procedure because this was no longer make-believe. The security of others, not only physical but also professional and econocmic security (because of the reputation and resources of my mentor) were in play, and the urge to excel and never fail began to grow in me. I should mention that, in spite of having been a profitable adventure, my research encouraged a greater sense of curiosity in me, but simultaneously supported me …show more content…

It is my duty to provide attention and an amusing atmosphere to these kids, while contemplating and trying to understand what they went through or still face everyday. The same goes with my shadowing experience. I’ve noticed how much empathy is required from the practitioner and how he or she has to be emotionally stable in some cases to be able to deal and professionally assess every patient. These experiences have greatly contributed in my decision to become a doctor. If by helping people in daily trivial situations filled me with some joy, I could not conceive the delight that one experiences as a result of transcendentally affecting the life of a patient via medicine. What better way to enrich my own knowledge and seek to contribute to the latest medical advances, while contemplating the positive effect they have on the welfare of the puerto-rican population? I’m very keen to be the mediator of these benefits, and I feel that the school of medicine would be the perfect platform to achieve
