I believe everyone should strive for excellence and follow their dreams. From a young age, I have always been an incredibly determined and driven person for everything that I set out to do. When I was growing up, my dream in life was to be become a lawyer due to the strong influence of my father. But that changed when I entered college. My college years and extracurricular activities have opened my eyes to the problems of our society. But despite all these problems, instead of wanting to flee the country, it made me love my country even more. In my mind, students should not only pursue academic excellence, but also show great concern for the society.
As a nutrition student, my course has helped me realize the value and importance of health. Unfortunately, due to some financial and not to mention geographical constraints, a lot of people in our country don't have the ability and means to acquire quality medical care. In addition, the world is constantly changing, and with the development of new technology to treat many more health complications and doctors running off to other countries to earn more money, the need for doctors in the Philippines is growing. Doctors are needed by every society regardless of wealth or diversity as patients depend and trust them to deliver accurate diagnosis and treatments.
During my stay in the university, I was constantly bombarded with the question "What do you want to do with the rest of your life? How do I envision myself in the future?" To many this might seem daunting, but ever since I realized that there will always be a universal necessity for help and service, my mind has been made up. I want to be a physician. I don't wish to be the wealthiest or highly graduated doctor the country has ever seen, but I want to be the one who will serve the people and the country in a true manner. Doctors are the ones that offer understanding when nobody else can, help alleviate pain when it is too painful to bear, and provide the light of comfort in gurgling fear. I believe there is no feeling more gratifying than knowing that I have impacted an individual's life in a positive manner. I have kept this goal as my focus throughout my college life, because it is a goal worth putting on a pedestal.
My passion for helping others and love for my country equally contribute to my dream of becoming a physician in the Philippines. I am fully aware that becoming a doctor involves dedication to my field of interest and many years of hard work, diligence and motivation. With mental strength and perseverance I have gained through my life experiences, I am fully equipped to conquer each and every obstacle standing in my way.
10 years from now, I see myself as a physician starting small, gaining some experience in hospitals around Metro Manila and in time, go back to my humble town of Narvacan, Ilocos Sur to practice my chosen field there. Narvacan is a very small town and have very limited access from quality health services. (I have to insert more sentences here.)
Right now, I do not have any definite plans on what specialization I might take up after medical school but no matter what my choice will be, I know for sure that I would share my knowledge and skills without being greedy for money as it is a form of giving back to the society.
