First post!!!!!

Hey everybody,
So, this is my first post, as I have started the Tulane University School of Medicine Masters of Pharmacology program here in NOLA!!! The program has been fantastic so far, and I have amazing and supportive professors and classmates! We have really developed a true sense of comradery as fellow students, which I am so impressed of, and I can see it when we help each other study and converse about our learning in our classes. We had our first exam and it went well, but I am now focusing on the learning objectives to not get overwhelmed with extraneous information. The learning objectives help us focus on what we need to know and help us to remember important drugs and treatments! 

I found the subjects of antiviral drugs, stem cells, and  tissue culture to be the most interesting topics so far!!! My classmates and I have already done things together, such as meeting up for food, watch a movie, etc. We went to the Pythian Market for brunch one weekend and also went to Johnny Sanchez after our first exam! Both places were so delicious, and I had tacos for both food experiences!!! 😊 I will start my volunteering experiences this coming month, and I am extremely interested in volunteering for KIPP! 

I will do even more volunteering besides that, once I look at my other options. Volunteering with organizations that help with children, will be very high up on my list for choosing for sure! The food has been wonderful, and I hope to explore the city even more in the next month and coming months!!!!! 😁
