The Search Is On

Simply enough, this is my search for something to do with my life (plus some odds and ends thrown in for good measure).

When I was a wee lad, I wanted to be a scientist. Archaeologist, Marine Biologist, Geneticist, Vulcanologist... you name a discipline in science and at some point I probably wanted to do that for a living. However, I quickly came to the realization that I wanted to be a doctor. So, for the past nine or so years, I have focused my life on that goal. Somewhere along the way, though, that plan seems to have come off the tracks.

I am currently reapplying to medical schools, but I am also staring into the abyss of "you're not going to make it to med school and you have degrees in Biology and Religion. Shit shit shit shit shit." It's not a situation I ever imagined I would be in, but here I am.

Whatever happens, you'll hear about it here as I attempt to make humor out of my shame. Feel free to offer suggestions or take bets on my final direction, because your guess is as good as mine.



P.S. If you know anyone on the admissions committee of a medical school, feel free to say, "Hey, there's this kid, Keegan Coleman, that you should keep an eye out for. He's pretty awesome/deserving/desperate." Or something like that. I have faith in your abilities to come up with a great way to sell me.
