How it all started

My debut as a blogger started as a consequence of increased boredom. After having surgery on my knee a week ago I have been unable to do much more then laying down in bed. I have been a fan of reading blogs for quite some time now and it was about time to start my own. I will write mostly about my experience of applying to medical school, and, if I still have time in the future, write about my own experience as a medical student. Now that it is clear why I have created this blog I will introduce myself. My name is Rafael, I was born in Brazil 22 years ago, lived in France for about 5 years and I currently reside in Buffalo, NY. I have many passions in my life with medicine and soccer being the most prominent. I have recently graduated from college with a Biochemistry degree. I currently work as a medical assistant at a primary care physician's office. I am in a serious relationship with this lovely girl named Cristina. And most importantly, I have been struggling to get a chance of fulfilling my dream of becoming a physician. I look foward to start writing the bulk of this blog in the near future. Stay tuned.
