Age crisis at 25...
I'm having a slight age crisis. Which, when I look at it in a bigger perspective, feels kind of silly considering I've just turned 25, but...
I know becoming a doctor is what I want to do - even more so since I started my year of studies to make up the subjects I don't have a high school grade in (we didn't have advanced math and biology, physics and chemistry when I went to high school, and I need it to go to med school). I love math, chemistry and biology, and I find most of physics fine (though our teachers is horrid).
However, I feel old.
For the first time since I started school when I was six years old, I'm now one of the older students. I've never been one of the older students before; I was always one of the youngest. And I know I have another six years of studies before I'm anywhere near finished, which means I'll be over 30 by the time I'm done. And now there's an age that makes me angst ^^
In law school, I was fairly young - 24 and done is quite all right. 31 and a doctor... not so much with the fast tracking.
I just need to get over it and stop stressing - it'll take the time it takes - but at the moment, I'm having an angst fest.
(At least I know exactly what I want with life now - I haven't for the first 25 years of my life ^^)
