But I share your opinion that a doctor has really so many responsibility and one mistake can cost a life ...<br /><br />I´m sure that creative writing is perfect for you because I love it really how you are writing <3 Wish you many success and satisfaction with your decision!<br /><br />xx from Bavaria/Germany, Rena<br /><br /><a href="http://dressedwithsoul.blogspot.de/" rel="nofollow">www.dressedwithsoul.blogspot.de</a><br />Dressed With Soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295634594192337762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051904684917790050.post-87651669359237540832013-08-17T00:24:54.146-04:002013-08-17T00:24:54.146-04:00This was beautifully written.

I care about people so much that I wonder if I would be able to deal with a loss or a mistake.<br /><br />I think it's wonderful that you had an experience where you helped someone in need :)<br /><br />♥ Naomi <a href="http://www.starryeyescoffeecups.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">{Starry Eyes + Coffee Cups}</a><br />Naomi Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02866341634370183340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051904684917790050.post-58865005801494467462013-08-16T18:02:20.824-04:002013-08-16T18:02:20.824-04:00I never knew you wanted to be a doctor!

I think you could be a nurse though! you would still be helping people, but with out the pressures of being a doctor. <br /><br />I thought about becoming a dentist for a while. But I knew i needed to take organic chem, and that was literally the HARDEST class i had ever taken. I don't think i could even pass that class, which i would need for dental school.

I remember meeting one surgeon who told me that you basically have to be emotionally detached if you are to survive in this industry. Yes, people's lives are depending on you, and yes, sometimes they might not make it, and that has a huge impact on our lives. But good for you! A lot of people shy away because they're scared of seeing blood, but your decision was profound. I think, it is the most important profession!<br /><br />WWW.ROXTHEFOX.COMROXTHEFOXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08425125537229151851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051904684917790050.post-4387486048694537522013-08-16T15:45:18.188-04:002013-08-16T15:45:18.188-04:00How interesting!

It's amazing how certain things, just little events or actions can make you think about what you might do differently, or where your strengths lie. I would fold under the pressure, myself ^^ I stick firmly beside 5-year old me's resolve to be a Jell-O maker, whatever I thought that was.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00502958474076893830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051904684917790050.post-57728877074921773512013-08-16T14:34:00.991-04:002013-08-16T14:34:00.991-04:00I'm a bioengineer and was actually pre-med as ...I'm a bioengineer and was actually pre-med as of a week ago, but it's my last year and I realized that I don't think I want to do that. It is a huge responsibility. I currently work in a spinal cord injury lab, and my boss always reminds me that there are tons of ways to help people even if you're not a doctor. So hopefully I made the right decision (for me of course)!<br /><br />Happy Friday!<br />Grace <br /><a href="http://asoutherndrawlblog.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">A Southern Drawl</a>Grace Wainwrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14006861093682531290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051904684917790050.post-69334616779809207942013-08-16T11:26:26.376-04:002013-08-16T11:26:26.376-04:00Yeah, being a doctor has so much responsibility to...Yeah, being a doctor has so much responsibility to it.

I have to admit, it never occurred to me to do anything non-creative as a career until I'd already left university and found myself doing a career that wasn't creative at all; I've considered medical school a few times since by the time committment is too much for me, sadly.<br />xox,<br />CeeCeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08822990898186192908noreply@blogger.com
