When I started my internship at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC)‚ which lies in the foothills of snow capped Mount Kilimanjaro in Moshi‚ Tanzania‚ I developed my clinical hands-on experience. I helped diagnose and manage a wide variety of acute and chronic medical conditions‚ from the very common to unusual and complicated cases. I embraced every opportunity not only for patient care‚ but also the development of my clinical problem solving skills as well as presentation. As days went

Canada is the poster child of immigration. In my experience a large number of Canadians are ignorant and uninformed about immigration and therefore immigrants. In my first months in Canada was not prepared to deal with the plights of nuanced racism‚ materialism and eventual assimilation often experienced by immigrant youth. With adequate institutions and support this concerning issue could be mended but seems to go largely ignored and unnoticed by the general public. I remember when my family

Learned Food Aversion I experienced a food aversion when I took an anti-allergy medicine with water. When I was seven‚ I had an allergy on cats. When the allergy started‚ I took very nasty and bitter pills with water. In time whenever I drank water without the pills‚ I felt bitterness in my mouth. I didn’t drink water since then. Only in five years I started to drink water again. At first I felt bitterness in my mouth from the medicine which I took with water together. Therefore my unconditioned

I looked around my room once more‚ turned-off the lights then closed the door quietly. I crept into my parent’s bedroom and kissed my mother on the forehead lightly‚ pulled the comforter tighter around her frail body then let my gaze linger on my father’s empty side of the bed. After a few moments‚ I headed to my younger sister’s room. Little Mia. She would probably hate me for leaving‚ but she needs to grow up and learn to be independent sooner or later; just sooner than she thought‚ much sooner

Forget Herostratus is a story about a man in ancient Greece who burned down the Temple of Artemis in order to live forever‚ but it is much more than that. Grigori Gorin is a genius writer who wrote an instant classic full of universal themes that will stand the test of time. Gorin’s Forget Herostratus is a clear critique of the Soviet Union‚ but it is an ingeniously disguised critique‚ enabling the play to get past the censors and communicating Gorin’s serious messages within a historical‚ comedic

A Day I Will Never Forget I have always been told to never judge a book by its cover‚ but in these terms regarding people. Just like the cover of a book‚ first impressions are not always as they seem. They are very crucial in everyday life and can be the basis of how our relationship with a person begins. You really find out someone’s true colors after you start getting to know them. This all happened to me when I saw and met my current girlfriend. Upon first talking to her I was wondering where

I am very fond of taking bath in rivers or canals and very often go for these purposes‚ sometimes with my friends and sometimes alone. Every time it was OK except that last Sunday which I can never forget. On that Sunday‚ I went to the river with one of my friends. It was morning and on reaching the river bank we saw a crowd of people including young children had alrfeady reached there. The river water was flowing in full speed this time. Therefore‚ those who were elderly were bathing peacefully

Reflecting on the experience of going to Canada for the first time‚ it seemed similar to most American cities that I have been to‚ until we got to Parliament Hill‚ but what I was especially interested in was what happened once we were inside the House of Commons. At first glance the House of Commons seems more like a comedy show‚ but there is a deeper meaning behind the genius political ploy that impacts Canadians. Walking from the bus to the bathroom the city of Ottawa did not strike me as largely

unsure of what my life would consist of without my parents. Transitioning between having a silver spoon in my mouth to not depending on them. When I was a child‚ I was so naïve of the world not knowing anything of what life consist of. My entire childhood revolved around the idea that my life would always be easy‚ full of games‚ and not one single problem would ever be big enough to affect my life. Little did I know‚ the life I imagined would not be the case‚ and I would have to acknowledge that the
