Well‚ that was my initial take on my retreat day until I finally came to the realizations the recollection had offered me during my time there. It wasn’t just a vacation. It was a time for me to be able to take a break from my usual life and take a step back to take a look at where I am at the moment and where I want to be in the future

I was shocked mainly by two major problems that the dean of UNC’s medical school‚ William Roper pointed out in his lecture.

Clarisse C. Infeliz PY12 Last January 29‚ 2013 we had our activity with the sisters and the 2 priests. They asked us 3 questions about love and we answered it. After 5 minutes I think so‚ they asked us to share it in the big group. For me Love is weird‚ that’s something we’ve pretty much already established. At any given moment we’re either blissfully in it‚ hating it‚ apprehensive of it‚ wanting it‚ worried about it‚ or resigning ourselves to forever alone status because we can’t deal with

After taking the long and perilous journey through the StrengthQuests test‚ the five strengths it gave me at the end were different from what I was expecting‚ at least for the most part. I received the following five strengths: Learning‚ Intellection‚ Restorative‚ Harmony‚ and Relator. While in each of them there is something I do agree fits with me‚ not everything does. Looking at the Learning and Intellection strengths‚ they are the closest strengths to me. Learning and education is so exciting
