never pass up on an opportunity.

I cannot skip opportunities. I am here to test my endurance and my focus against all temptations. -I have been following the diary of a Caribbean med student and found it quite insightful. I am enamored by his enthusiasm towards med school which also encourages me to work harder in med.

In one of his posts, he narrated how, at times, he felt like skipping review classes in exchange for a few hours of rest but kept reminding himself that he should grab every opportunity that comes his way. We had a review session for the YL5 students last night and honestly, earlier in the day, I was already thinking of ways to skipping it. I am not a really good teacher and I hate teaching. Also, I am not confident with what I know. Well, to cut the story short, I ended up teaching. Nevertheless, the experience was worth it. I am glad that I came.
