Wow. I was just reminded of this blog I started and which lasted only a week. At that time, I had a lot of energy to write lengthy descriptions of useless things. 2 years into it, I can now cut straight to the point. Dental school is a hard, grueling cause of more stress than you can ever imagine & which never ceases. But that testing of oneself is a profound poetic feat, and culminates in becoming Dr. Andrea Kirschner. It's a deep, quiet joy that I cannot wait to attain.
