Ever since I was a little girl, I knew right away that I wanted to do Science. There was nothing that excited me more than learning about the human body, and things that influenced its positive and negative changes. I feel so blessed to have had great doctors while growing up, who sparked that desire within me to become a guardian of life at such an early age. When I was in the fifth standard, I met a wonderful lady, Mrs. Pilgrim. Like many children would feel about their role models, I thought she hung the moon. Although I have vivid memories of many other doctors, she stood out the most. It seemed as if she had a book that could name every pain that could be experienced or thought of. It was obvious that Mrs. Pilgrim had a passion for medicine. She made medicine look appealing. It was in the fifth standard, around the age of ten, that I discovered my love for Medicine. As doctors, it is important that we enjoy what we do, while improving or enhancing the lives of others. Over the years, my mother would always weigh the success and failure that I brought home. I was taught to think about the kind of life I would like to lead. Even though my father left, the level of success that my mother expected from me never changed. I am, and always will be grateful for the opportunity to attend Bishop Anstey High School East, an institution which exposed me to theories that allowed me to indulge in my passion for Science. I believe that every one of us has something special to offer. There are many people who are waiting for people like us to guide them, to heal them and to save them.
