Stritch School of Medicine
The Stritch School of Medicine of Loyola University Chicago wants me to interview at their school!! Yay!! This has become my top choice school and I am falling in love with it all over again as I read up on their materials before my interview, which will be 1/6- yes, the day after my interview at Rush. I am beyond excited that I am getting to interview there relatively early in the interview season. Well, it's right in the middle of the interview season but I sure am glad I'm not interviewing in April. Anyway, please pray for me on 1/5 and 1/6 but especially 1/6!

End of the year already??
Hey everyone!
Happy birthday to me! I have a feeling that the 24th year of my life is gonna be a great one :)
So here are updates on my life. On the medical school side, I am SUPER excited about my upcoming interview at Rush Medical College on 1/5/11. It'll be my second interview in IL and I didn't like the first one (Midwestern) so hopefully I will like this one. If I like it at least as much as I like Des Moines University (and I get accepted), we're going to be in a bit of a pickle. I've never visited Rush so I don't really know what to expect. I have a bunch of friends who go there but haven't really talked to them about specifics about curriculum, facilities or anything (maybe I should do that...). I am still waiting to hear about my Loyola interview (fyi: I'm guaranteed an interview there from the link between it and my masters program) and I KNOW I like Loyola a lot so again, if I get into Loyola too, I will have a very blessed but difficult decision to make.
As for my personal life, I am doing okay. I have dealt with the fact that Phil may move on before I move on to another relationship. We are still talking and are friendly with each other and that's all I can ask for, right? I am learning a lot about myself throughout this whole process and I like what I'm seeing. I have surprised myself with the amount of surrender I have shown with the plans that God has been revealing in my life and the lives of those around me. It's funny that now when I meet/see guy friends, my inner self assesses whether or not this person could be a potential future boyfriend. Oy. I wish I could shut off that part of my brain and let God just control it all but alas, I am always thinking ahead and getting ahead of myself.
Has anyone been watching The Sing-Off?? If you didn't know already, I love a capella music so this show is a dream come true. Not to mention that it's so hot when a guy can sing and a lot of the male leads have been very good looking. I decided that I need a man who sings to come into my life and sweep me off my feet (hey, a girl can dream, right?).
Happy Advent to everyone and I hope everyone has a merry Christmas and a blessed new year!
