Becoming a Lab Scientist

As a 27 year old man, I do get insecure from time to time. I see my friends and classmates have their dream jobs to earn their desired salary for living. I see them getting romantic partners and even getting married with their partners. They have a car, a house, and a family to live with together.

I know it’s not something to beat myself up for not getting my part yet. But life is like a race. There is a finished line at the end of the road that everyone has to cross. However, everyone goes at their own pace. Some can go faster than others. Some can be driving slow but steady. Meanwhile, there can be a malfunctioned car that has stopped racing for some time and then started functioning to try racing again.My life can be described as that when I faced my first failure in college. I try to not dwell on it too much, but I became depressed and down as I was not passing my classes. I have to transfer to another college because I was dismissed from my program at my previous school. Now Mercy University has given me an opportunity to try pursuing my career once again. I was given another chance – a chance to become a Clinical Laboratory Scientist again.

Meanwhile my batch-mates have started going to their jobs, I am going to focus on my studies and try to put on my best performance to be successful at my academic journey. It is not going to be easy but my life has been stagnant for some time and it’s time for me to get my act up and get my life back together.
