Thinking of Alternatives

Oct 11, 2014 23:01

My entire life has been acquainted with healthcare. Who wouldn't get much exposure if you're parents are part of it? Plus, I've lived a couple of years in the hospital. It's not because I was sick. It's because my parents were always on call (even in the middle of the night), and it would be much better to live there instead.

Therefore, I told myself I will be taking a premed course in college. And I did. I finished it and became a licensed professional. I ditched going to medical school because I don't see myself as a doctor. It was a big slap on my face. I thought, I was going to the path where I first wanted to take. But no, I changed my mind in between.

So now I'm taking a post-grad course in which it lets me give a career advancement. Heck, my profession will demand for this in a couple of years, I guess. For completion, one of the requirements is an internship in a hospital setting. Honestly, I'm intimidated. Other people have said it so. On the first day, there were so many things mentioned. I couldn't grasp all of them in. And I asked myself, "Why the heck am I even here?"

Then, I pondered over it. I thought, maybe I'm going to excel somewhere else, where I won't do most of the talking. Probably, that would've something to do with Math like Engineering. What if I decided to deviate from my family's profession beforehand? Instead of putting an RPh at the end of my name, would it be much better to put Engr. before my name?

I am not sure where this is going. I'm feeling this way because cowardice is lurking all over me. I could probably be the best healthcare professional out there, but I'm too afraid. Fear always gets ahead of me. Let's see what will happen though.
