I Don't Know

Each time I think about this topic it seems millions of light-years away. But now, the the time for me to pick a career has finally come. Unfortunately, I'm still as clueless as I was before.

With my one-month experience in Canada and my many appraisals for that country, I was really convinced to go there and settle down. You know... Nice country, nice people... (I'm not very sure I can say the same about winter once I've experienced it... You see, I hate the cold.) But, recently, I've really considered taking the harsh path of medicine.

If I really choose this career, then I'll have to stay in Panama for good. You see, my own country has a very good Medicine Faculty in the National University. But others have advised me to go to either Mexico or Cuba. The latter is the best in the career, and the first, well, it's the fastest.

But, I have my own thoughts. Medicine is hard. Before entering the Faculty, there's this exam and, frankly, it's a great filter. Then, I still have to endure the years. It's six years plus two from training. Can I take on the burden of many, many lives? Can I live without a "life"? I don't know.
