When Microaggressions Become Aggressions

May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and seeing everyone talk about the duality of being an Asian American shows me how we've all experienced variations of the same things: the inner conflict of not being quite Asian enough and not being quite American enough and the struggle to grasp for a place in between these … Continue reading When Microaggressions Become Aggressions

It’s Always Been a Scary Time

Since school ended in May, I've been in my own bubble trying to figure out my life. In the last several weeks, my feed was flooded with posts about "Dr. Ford" and "Kavanaugh". I hadn't the slightest idea who these people were, and I felt stupid for being so absent from the outside world that … Continue reading It’s Always Been a Scary Time

My Dear Alpha Xi Delta

When I first went Alpha Xi, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had gotten out of a bad relationship I had been in since high school, and as a shy commuter student, I hadn't had the opportunity to make many friends.

HELLO FRIENDOS

 

Hey y’all, I’m Rena and this is my blog! I’m currently living the dream as a second year medical student. Despite having been in several pre-med organizations, I wasn’t blessed with the best mentors and advisors throughout my journey to get where I am today.

Looking back, there was so much I wish I had known. Because of this, I’d like to be there for others who are in need of a little guidance from school things to adulting things. Hopefully you can learn from my experiences to save yourself time and money.

Aside from med school musings, I also dabble in sharing food, travel, and general life thoughts. I hope being here is as helpful for you as writing it is for me. Cheers!
