This statement relates to several things in my life on any given day but today, it is all about the White Coat Ceremony, aka the official recognition/representation that I am an OTD candidate (or will be when I finish all the classes).
It feels a little weird to do this now since we have class tomorrow (and the next day, and the next day, etc.) but perhaps that is for the best? These last 2 weeks have not been the easiest to get through (
*cough* IRB writing and research
*cough*) so maybe it is good to take a moment to realize how far we've come.
Let's face it, five years ago I was about a month into my second on-campus semester of my undergraduate degree. I was still only 18, just a baby. Never could have imagined the journey to get here, the struggles, joys, triumphs, and heartbreak. It is quite a thing I've managed to do... We have managed to do (since I have a lot of friends in the following pictures, I need to give them their due).

I will try and post more frequently but life has been crazy and I always seem to forget...
Nonetheless, More updates to come!
