I'm really bad at this blog thing

I really am. So sorry about that. I can't believe the last time I updated this thing was way before this last semester.

The rest of my summer was amazing, I really can't ask for better people to have spent it with, relaxing and such. But obviously, because of all the time that I spent studying and what not, my summer was just way too short.

Then the semester started. Scores came back on the first day of classes, unfortunately. I improved by 2 points, with an overall improvement of 3 points. Only good thing was that I was able to cut out some schools, which, honestly, I'm happy about, because those secondaries were UBER expensive.

I started considering schools in the Philippines to apply to, and really only looked at my mom's alma mater, which required that I take another admissions test, the NMAT, which actually looks harder than the MCAT, so I threw out that idea.

The entire was pretty much consumed by Cell Bio, Research, and completing the secondary applications for the schools I was still applying to. I got all of them in well before the deadline, and I got some rejections even before the semester ended, but that's fine.

The majority of my break I spent away in the Philippines, which was perfect. A good way to just escape and be with family that I really don't get to see all that often, which, at times, makes me sad.

While I was away, I got my first positive email from a school, which happens to be one of my top choice schools, saying that I got an invitation for an interview. That's right. I said interview. Which I scheduled as soon as I got back, and it is scheduled for February 7.

Aside from that, this semester seems to be pretty relaxed. For now.
We shall see as time passes.
