Day 06- Discuss school and your educational goals

A very long time ago, my sister Rosa and I created our "Plans". We wrote them down on two small whiteboards and we've had them on our fridges ever since. She is my hero, my role model, and everything in a woman that I want to be. Strong. Independent. Intelligent. Inspiring. She has taken life's bull by the horns and is taking it for a ride. While she is accomplishing everything she ever dreamed of doing career and education-wise, I strive to be as dedicated as her. She is currently serving the Peace Corps in Guatemala, and you can follow her beautiful journey on her blog. 

May 2014. That's when I graduate from San Francisco State University with my Bachelor's degree in Sociology. Finally. 6 years after my high school graduation, I'm walking the second stage towards my diploma. I'm only 23 but I feel like 35. I want to be done already, but I know my career goals mean a long road ahead. I plan on pursuing a career in medicine. My goal is to be a doctor, cardiology to be exact. But life throws so many curveballs that I'm not entirely too sure what will happen. In the meantime I will sure as hell try my hardest in school to get into medical schools across the country, so that no matter where Chreston gets stationed (Hawaii, please!), I can go to a school that will be nearby. Currently, however, I am in my second to last semester, and although I'm for sure going to get good grades, I have self-diagnosed myself with a bad case of Senioritis. In fact, I have a paper due tomorrow and I'm writing this instead. Oops. Not to worry, Procrastination is actually my middle name ;-)
