As I compare my feelings from last week to this week. I admit, last week was very overwhelming, frustrating, and there was moment I felt so helpless with my overall life as it was out of control. I am person that I am very structured when it pertains to my work but I noticed that it affects my mood and week when I feel disorganized and overly stressed.

A few months ago, I began an internship with the East Villagers Organization. East Villagers is a non-profit organization that focuses primarily on funding children with congenital heart disease. As an intern, I was required to translate documents from Mandarin to English since the organization focused its projects in Eastern China.

Since this was one of the first times I was given such an enormous task within such a small time span, I panicked.
The coursework at the University of Iowa prepared me sufficiently for my internship as well as entering into my future occupation.

I hope to bring this diverse learning experience to the UA COM and collaborate with fellow classmates to help keep peoples minds open and to approach every patient with the mindset of not only healing but learning something from

Specifically, eating lunch with my assistant coach, Michael, and studying with my friends at the library. Although I might not go out of my way to do these things, they are nonetheless important to me and have significant impacts on my fulfillment in life.
