As a child I always wanted to do many things, I remember I wanted to be a doctor, a teacher, a firefighter, among many other things that catch your attention as a child. However, I don't think I ever had a dream job since I was a child, but I was always curious about health-related work since most of my family belongs to this area of work.

During my time at school, I took a liking for mathematics and I was interested in engineering, but when I reached my last year of school I made a drastic change and I realized that what I wanted to study at the end of school would be medicine. I started preparing to take the PTU and during this period I kept asking about other careers to see if there was another one that caught my attention. The date came when I had to take the PTU, then I got the results and I applied to my two options, which were medicine and dentistry in different universities, being in the second option. It is worth mentioning that at that time I was not 100% convinced by the career, but comparing the labor field, salaries and many other factors, I believed that this would be the best decision based on what I wanted for my future. I had plenty of options to go into medicine if that is what I really wanted, but I decided to open my heart to dentistry and I think I really like the career now <3.

My experience at the university has been very nice, I didn't think I would meet such amazing people here. The first few months I didn't feel very comfortable and then I met my current group of friends who I know I will be able to count on whenever I need them. Now that we are back on campus it has been hard for me to leave my family, who I always saw every day, and my childhood friends, since we all studied in different cities, but I think that with time I will get better at this.

Now I'll leave you some pictures :)
