So it has been a fun and crazy beginning to summer. Figuring out where I am going to be living, since I moved out of the IV house. Helping my parent's move (still helping) , my brother's graduation and other stuff. But through it all I have been extremely blessed. This summer has possible been one of the best since coming to college. God has given me several opportunities on VCU's campus and just where my passions lie and I am taking them.



Of course everyone knows I am very active in doing stuff at VCU, sometimes a little too much and having a huge passion for the performing arts. Well I have been given this awesome opportunity to have two jobs this summer. One of which I am an RA that gives me free housing until August 10. So awesome since I still have no clue where I am living yet, and then the other is working in the card office on MCV. Well they might not seem like amazing jobs. But they are!! Especially the card office. Since working there one of my undergrad professors who I did research with last summer, saw me working and asked if I wanted to help her with some more studies that would be for the undergrad physiology lab. Wow!! I get to make studies that every other pre-health undergrad would be doing in their lab class. How crazy is that? To be an assistant researcher and still in undergrad. Of course I am taking this. I not only get to learn more: physiology and Portuguese, but this wonderful professor might be writing me a recommendation to Grad school. But besides that, one of my co-workers wife is a physical therapist at VCU, and did her PHD program here. How cool is that. I actually got to talk to her yesterday about her experience as a physical therapist and going to the Grad school I am applying for. And through talking with her I might be able to volunteer with her and get a handful of hours working with her. Amazing!!!



But with all this amazing stuff piling up, God just opens another door. I have the chance to audition for an Off Broadway National Tour. CRAZY!! This is the chance of a lifetime. And I am not going to let this one go. God has given me amazing gifts and talents and to not use them. Is a waste. By all means, im not saying I am good or great. But God has given me so many opportunities to use what He gave me a passion for, why not use them. After all I am trying to go into Performing Arts Medicine. Now I just need to figure out how to finish school, and do all this amazing stuff. AHH!! God is GREAT!!
