That's All Folks

For everyone who has been following my blog, this is it. I took my last every test at Tulane on Monday. Graduation is in 18 days, and I couldn't be more excited. I never thought I would be receiving a Masters degree in pharmacology, but life is crazy and unexpected and I am so happy I was given this opportunity. I have learned so much in this past year. This program has helped bridge the gap between what I have learned at LSU as an undergrad to what I will learn as a medical student. I honestly feel like I have learn more pertinent things related to the medical field than I have learned throughout my four years at LSU. I can now read research article with ease, and I can easily understand the methods, statistics, and results behind the research of a study. I now have 31 new friends, and I want to wish them the best of luck in everything that they strive for. As long as I live in New Orleans they will have a friend here. As for the faculty, I want to give a shoutout to Dr. Clarkson and Mrs. Linda. Y'all have made this program such a special thing, and it wouldn't be what it is now without y'all, so thank you. This has been such a beautiful and amazing experience, but now it is time for me to close this door and begin the next chapter of my life. Thank you following along during my experience as a student at Tulane School of Medicine. Knowledge is power. As I sign off for the last time, I want to leave this behind for whoever reads it. It is a short simple prayer that I think about when times are tough in my life.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
