Life in Caribbean Medical School, Dominica

I arrived at Dominica on August of 2009. Mainly for schooling and I thought it will be boring and painful. I was half right at that, the painful part. It is intense, but I enjoy what I am learning and I feel like I am finally really LEARNING! Weather is unmatched and tropical fruits are just delicious, you have to come here and try them for yourself. Living alone and doing things on your own flexible schedule is fun. Don't get me wrong, I still miss home and home-cooked foods! You can chill under the sun, but not too much to flunk yourself out of school. Just find the right balance and you will find that studying in Caribbean can be too much fun!

It's been over 3 months and 1st semester is almost over! FINALLY! Here I come U.S., more energized and more upbeat than before! I didn't know that learning can be this much fun! I think it helps when you start having some focus or clear cut goal of what you want to do with your life or in your life! For me, it certainly helped. I am glad that I come to Ross University to study! Although I am enjoying the study, I want to finish it as fast as possible so I can go out into the world and apply what I have learned sooner and enjoy life even more! I am looking forward to the day of my graduation from RU! Class of 2013, WE ROCK!!! Since mini and final are near, best of luck to all my classmates and hope to see y'all next semester!
