Ahhh...a Saturday autumn morning in NYC. Colorful leaves, crisp air, nice sunshine. =)
This week was definitely one of my toughest because of the bio and chem tests on Thursday and Friday.
All of the pre-med students were having a tough time balancing
studying for chem and bio and doing work for our other classes as well. I
basically spent the entire week reading my bio textbook and looking at
powerpoint slides for chem. I read on the train, in the library, and at
home. It was a huge pain, but there is no way to do well on these kinds
of tests without reading the text multiple times.
Being a college
student is definitely not easy. But in those moments when I'm studying
and just want to give up and do something else, I focus on the fact if I
put in the work now, I will benefit later. I've learned that focus and
determination are the basis of success in college.
An hour after my bio test, I went to my Arts in NYC professor's piano recital at Lang Recital Hall.
After
being under such pressure before the bio test, it was nice to just sit
and listen to my professor play the piano. He was absolutely amazing.
His passion for the piano and for music was palpable in the air. It was
so inspiring to watch someone do something they love. I can only hope
that I will be half as happy when I'm working in the medical field as he
is playing the piano.
Have a great weekend, everyone!!!
