What's importante these upcoming months?

Today is my last day of this program. I'm actually excited now to go back to Chicago, staying with one of my good friends. I don't really have solid plans on what I will be doing but at least it'll be something different. Being here for the past 6 weeks has been great but hasn't been as intense as I had hoped it would be. It started off with lots of hopes and grilling on the MCAT preparation but it wasn't enough. I found myself diligently 'researching' on-line into people's lives and my life rather than getting into what the Medical school here was offering me. My excuse: healing myself. Before I got to here, I felt as if my life was falling apart and I didn't have the motivation, inspiration that I knew I had in me. It's still like that but a little better. I think I'm going to do more group therapy when I get back onto campus. I need that at this time in my life.

Goals to focus on this fall (listed in order of priority, 1st things 1st!):
-Get smart. Read and educate myself.
-Live drama free with R and S.
-Study for the MCAT (hopefully, but a must do)
-Work on my self-esteem and my pride
-Work soooo hard in class. Get great recommendations. Must go to Office Hours.
-Get a job ( doing something fun, like the coffeeshop or a restaurant)
-Working out
-Volunteer with Red Herring (it's a vegetarian restaurant)
-Fill out an application for this summer program in Italy
-Volunteer at the nursing home or the Crisis Nursery Center
-Hang out with Anh and Arlyn, if not then I can use my email~~~!!
-Use my over 21 privileges, mix some kick-ass drinks. once in a while (goals of a bartender, haha)
-Maybe get into the Coming Out Support Group or the LGBT Students of Color

While doing all that in the process I will:
-Find myself
-Find my happiness
-Find some knowledge
-Make some best friends again.

In the spring:
-Apply for the April MCATs? or August?
-Apply into Public Allies and start the interview process.
