August 2025

 Hey y’all,

August is in full swing, and honestly... I’m already feeling overwhelmed. This month is always hectic for me. I went from working one job to juggling three again. On top of that, I’m back in full-on mommy mode—getting Gianny ready for school every single day.

I only get Sundays off during the school year, so time is super tight. To make things even more intense, I’ve got just one month to study for the MCAT. My exam is scheduled for September 12—wish me luck! I only need a 500 to apply to U.S. med schools, and at least a 121 in both BB and CP for my top-choice Caribbean school. I know I can do it—I just have to stay consistent and focused.

I’ll try my best to keep posting weekly, but honestly, my plate is full. That said, I’ve noticed a lot of y’all are reading and engaging with the blog lately. WOW. I never imagined that three years later, this blog would be doing exactly what I hoped—reaching people who are on a similar journey.

This upcoming year is definitely going to be interesting—especially with the changes to Grad PLUS loans. In a weird way, it’s kind of a blessing. It’s forcing me to take my plans more seriously. If I don’t start school by July 2026, I might not be able to go back for a few years, because I really depend on those Grad PLUS loans to survive.

Thanks for sticking with me on this wild ride. Let’s see where this next chapter takes us.
