    You don’t need to apologize for the content you produce. I admire your diligence of posting on a steady basis while still juggling medical school. To be completely honest no matter what you post I’m sure most of us enjoy it all!! Be kind to yourself 💛

    Elementary, Middle school and High school: If your sick you get an extra day to do hw
    College: I have at least a day or 2 to get it back together
    Med school: you have 2 hrs to stop being sick

    Loved seeing you spend time with family and getting a mini-break from studying. Hope you're feeling better. Last thing, I'm glad you talked about respecting cadavers. (I'm in OT school and don't do dissections, but we gave a moment of silence for them too.)
    You're amazing for keeping up with vlogs btw!

    I really appreciate the fact that you talked about your experience with cadavers. I've always wanted to hear about medical student's experiences with them because you're working with someone who was once alive, living and breathing, just like you. I always thought "How does this affect you emotionally, psychologically?" "What did you do after your first time with the cadavers?" Cry, binge eat, sleep, etc? It's awesome that your professors respect the donors by starting the class with a moment of silence. These people and their bodies need to be respected. Thanks for the amazing content and keep up the great work!!

    Hey! I'm a first-year medical student too - but in Montreal, Canada (in French!)! Your videos have been very entertaining and motivating to me when I sometimes do not feel like studying at all, so thank you! I know it's cheesy to say and I know you are not showing us everything you are doing, but balance is important (the Faculty always likes to remind us that, but they are right!) Don't be scared to go out every once in awhile, or do not beat yourself up if you are sick and fell a little behind. We are medical students, yes, but also human beings lol! You are an exceptionally hard-working person and if you got in medical school, you are able to get through it! Can't wait to see what bright future is awaiting you :)

    I’m an undergraduate at university that offers a cadaver lab. It’s honestly been the best experience. I know so much about the body now from transverse pericardial sinus to Gastroduodenal artery to faux cerebri. It’s a joy! And I hope I can get in to med school.

    I get what you mean when you say you feel like you have to apologize for not being “a good vlogger” .... but I don’t think it’s true. Like these vlogs you do in medical school are just videos of what’s going on! Every vlog won’t always be packed with “good content”... I say that in quotes because I feel like there’s no “good” or “bad” content... just whatevers going on! MED SCHOOL IS FIRST PRIORITY and I feel like a lot of us here are just grateful to be apart of your journey and cheer you on! Anyone who says that you’re not producing good enough vlogs should try med school AND VLOGGING “GOOD CONTENT” themselves on top of everything else in life hahaha 😂 or maybe if it’s your brain telling you instead (or maybe you feel pressured to vlog every week when people say you’re their weekly inspiration???🤔) just remember WE SUPPORT YOU AND JUST THINK ITS COOL YOURE SHARING WHATEVER IT IS YOU SHARE! ❤️❤️❤️❤️☺️ maybe it would help if you just give yourself more time to vlog... instead of feeling like you have to produce a vlog every week?? I get w CZcams it’s good to be consistent, but produce a vlog whenever you feel like!! Love you girl! You got this!
