    Rachel I’m so freaking happy for you honestly when I saw you cry - I started crying because I know how hard you worked. Juggling your mental health, TH-cam, trying to have a normal life outside of Med School. You deserve the world. Well done for working so so hard. I’m so happy for you. You are meant to be an Ob-Gyn ❤️❤️❤️

    I can't believe you're going to graduate already! 😭😭😭 I still remember your moments of self-doubt and you questioning if you'd ever feel happiness again. But look at you! You got through it and you matched!!! All the hard work paid off!
    After having lived through med school, remember that you can get through residency!
    As a Mexican-American, you have made us so proud! Congratulations! 🥳🥳🥳

    I hope when you graduate you'll go back and do a commentary on the video of your first week in medical school. What a tough tough journey it's been, especially through covid learning. But you made it and accomplished so much these last 4 years. What a happy ending.

  • @burnt.norton
    @burnt.norton ปีที่แล้ว +6

    hi! so i’m currently a senior in high school, i’ve commented this before but i don’t think i can say it enough times: viewing your journey throughout these few years has made me feel like i can achieve something similar as a first-gen college student. i’m the first person in my family to pursue medicine, and it definitely feels daunting. but i recently just got into uc san diego and uc davis and will be getting my medical assistant cert soon. i know it’s so minuscule compared to the things i’ll experience in life within the next few years but just thought i should still thank you lol, i think i can attribute a lot of my accomplishments to people like you :) hope you have a great day or night

    Hey. I just wanted to say I’m sorry about your guys pup. I lost my cat not long ago and it was really tough for me. I really love the graduation photos and everything about your vlogs has been both inspiring and fun and engaging. You make it easy to smile even in really tough times. What you’ve been doing lately is awesome and what your channel has always been and what it continues to be and the shape your making it all take is beautiful. Your a great reminder of how to live and you really bring everyone in this space into a better place. I always want to give advice back, but honestly your wisdom and experience and joy is just massive. I’m glad you’re here for inspiration. Everyone knows life can be brutal, the more spaces to turn that into something beautiful, the better. So yeah, I’ve got nothing insightful to say, but I want to thank you for all your insight and positivity.

    hi Rachel! watching your journey has reignited my love for Medicine, as a few years when I wanted to first apply my parents were unsupportive but I owe all my thanks to TH-camrs like you, who have delighted that fire for Medicine as a current nursing student hoping to apply to Medical School soon.
    I love you lots, I'm wishing you all the best in OB! 🥰

    So excited for you and your continued journey! I teared up watching your reaction to Match Day on Instagram. It brought back memories of when I matched to my program....what an emotional journey it is. The tears are not only tears of joy at finally knowing you can do what you desired to but also in receiving that validation that, yes, I am good enough! And your humble spirit will carry you through these next stages of your career and the patients you encounter will be blessed to have you as their OBGYN

    I only catch your videos here and there, but I've seen enough to know that a residency program would be making a big mistake to not accept you. And I'm not even talking about your potential to succeed there (though I'm sure you'll thrive). You bring value with you everywhere you go with your personality alone. Patients will want to have you as their provider.
    Basically, what I'm trying to say is that you're an awesome person lol
