Yesterday I received the fabulous news that I have been accepted into the class “MEDS 2012″ at the Queen’s School of Medicine in Kingston, Ontario! This comes at the end of an application process that lasted more than a year and has dominated much of my time. The Queen’s MD program has a strong reputation and, because of its smaller size, boasts a unique character and personality. I feel immensely privileged to be starting there!
And thus, next week I will graduate from the University of Waterloo and begin an entirely new pursuit. It is an exciting time! For the moment I feel entirely unqualified, but also that this is the right direction for me. I anticipate a steep learning curve and lots of challenges.
Along with that, I expect having lots of interesting stories to share! And as I take leave of a wonderful community in Waterloo, I’m looking for ways to stay in touch. Hence the justification for this blog. I hope that it will become a chronicle of four years in medical school, and just one way that I can continue to share daily life with you.
