[00:00.00]Happily I received notice of my admission. Later,
[00:04.64]I found out that less than 15% of the applicant had been
[00:08.93]offered positions that year.
[00:10.49]Now in the first two years of professional training,
[00:14.58]I couldn't be happier with my decision not to give up on my dream.
[00:18.36]My father told me that if I wanted it badly enough, I would get in. Well,
[00:24.65]Daddy, I wanted it. So there. After graduation,
[00:29.34]I would like to travel to another country,
[00:31.97]possibly a Latin American country and work in a children's hospital for a year or two.
[00:37.85]So many of the children there are physically handicapped
[00:41.94]but most hospitals don't have the funding to hire trained staff to care for
[00:46.47] them properly. I would like to change that somehow.
