Week 1 Recap: Promise

Can't believe week 1 of summer already passed. I tried to study last week but it was inefficient and unproductive. I think my body and brain were telling me that I need a break from finals. It was hard to delve straight into intense MCAT studying after a stressful finals week (and the quarter in general). I'm glad I listened to my body and gave myself some much needed rest. Instead of studying, I spent quality time with friends and family which was very valuable to me because as we grow older, it only gets harder to hangout with meet up with friends and family.

Highlights of week 1

berries picking with AACF peeps (it was my first time picking strawberries ever!!)

life-giving catch up & early celebration for Pat's graduation at the Temple

The premed squad since day 1! Celebrating the fact that Anna and Michelle finished PHY 7 series woohooooo!! So proud of you two <3 It was another life-giving catch up. Also I really appreciate how I can bond with Michelle through our dads' favorite cantonese songs. That car ride back home was probably my favorite car ride of the quarter. IT WAS SO GREAT LISTENING AND SINGING TO BEYOND'S CLASSICS HAHAHA. Ty Jesus for blessing me with this roommate.

Here's one of my favorites from Beyond: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwSQQoWqeBs (10/10 would recommend)

Pat graduated!!! It's crazy to look back on how we met. No regrets for those late nights in Tercero, late night heart felt deep talks, studying in DC and wall main, and sleeping over at your triple room. Praying that your surgery on Friday will go smoothly and God will open up doors as you transition to the next chapter of your life. <3

My SG leader AshB's gift. She's not only talented in calligraphy and photography, but she never fails to encourage and remind me to set my priorities right. She has set herself as an example that I look up to. Thank you Jesus for providing me such a wise, loving, and caring sg leader.

More things happened but I gotta stop here for now. It's 11pm and I promised Amanda that I will wake up on time tomorrow so that we can finally do our morning runs and plum picking together. IT WILL HAPPEN TOMORROW 6/28 AT 7:30AM!

Enough procrastination from MCAT studying. Will be staring at yellow prep books 2x harder tomorrow to catch up HAHA

Love and miss you guys!!
