Hard work will pay off

The weather in Chicago never ceases to amaze me. What looked like snow was really rain in disguise! I don’t understand the weather, although I probably should. Not sure if other people feel this way (to those whom it applies), but every time the weather changes, my allergies go NUTS. I am stuffy and sniffling and can’t sleep. I haven’t gotten much sleep the past two weeks because I’ve been staying up studying for the MCAT, going into the research lab very early in the morning and working on HAC (I can’t wait to go to Clemente High School in March and April!).

I have two exams on Valentine’s Day, one in biochemistry and one in homeostasis. I’m not too thrilled, especially since I haven’t studied the material very in-depth or had time to catch up with the reading. There are so many demands every day! :(

But nevertheless, the lack of sleep and crummy allergies/bad skin will hopefully just be a minor bump in the road for my success this semester. I know that I will have to work even harder in the next coming months, but with every assignment or thing to do, I know that the end goal will be worth it! So, for those of you who are not “feeling” the good prospects for the semester, don’t fret! We can all do this and indeed, hard work will pay off.

Enjoy your Valentine’s Day! This past Sunday was Chinese New Year for those who were not aware. It’s the year of the snake! :D Any snakes out there? Born in 1989 perhaps? Wishing everyone the best.

About Milie Fang, Biological Sciences / Pre-medicine

I am a junior and an acclaimed workaholic. While I like to keep busy academically, I really enjoy the simple pleasures of hanging out with friends and family, playing video games, or listening to music. When life seems to go well, allergies and eczema like to butt in and make me miserable. I hope to go into medicine so that I can have a better understanding of skin and the immune system to help myself, and to also help others facing the same problems I have faced since I was three.
