The Dream
It is kind of hard to picture myself as a graduating senior at Creighton. Imagining it just makes me scare and sad, knowing that senior year will suddenly be near soon. I mean my first year as a freshman in college is almost over. My college career is very busy because I'm taking required classes and studying as a pre-med student. During my senior year, I will be more concerned with time management. I know for sure that I will be practicing leadership experience just by being a pre-med student. I will be volunteering at hospitals, interning and shadowing physicians, working with patients, and non-medical related services through APO, CCSJ, Habitat for Humanity, and much more. I hope by the time I reach senior year, I will gain leadership experiences, and use what I was taught in FLP into action. From FLP I will be able to use my developed communication and teamwork skills to be an effective leader.
As I mentioned earlier, my college career as a pre-med student is going to be stressful and time consuming. However, throughout my life, I am a big advocate of service and mission work. The best-case scenario for me as a graduating senior pertaining leadership involvement is gaining an executive position either in Alpha Phi Omega, Habitat for Humanity, or any clubs. I'm only a freshman right now, and I hope to continue exploring what Creighton has to offer me. I want to be exposed to new things through the different organizations on campus.
My whole life I have always dreamt of doing mission work around the world. I want to be a doctor and help those in developing countries. The reason why I want to be a doctor and do mission work in developing countries is because of my social justice work in the Marshall Island. While being in the Marshall Island for about a month, I saw true beauty of the island and the happiness and love within the Marshallese people. One of the family that hosted my friends and I lost a beloved daughter months prior to our arrival. She passed away due to the lack of medical resources the hospital there had. When I heard of this story, it truly broke my heart. I realized there must be a lot of developing countries that lack the medical resources they need to help their people to get better. This is one of the main reasons why I want to be a doctor and make a difference in the world.
