    โ†’ at nineteen, erin was diagnosed with a ganglion cyst in her right wrist which is a small sac of fluid that forms over her joint, causing pressure on it. usually, it is very harmless hence why she has never really focused on it, but sometimes it can cause pain, tingling, numbness or muscle weakness. most of the time, she uses ibuprofen gel or a warm compress to relieve her pain. โ†’ erin previously had a cataract in her left eye which clouded the lens of her eye and decreased her vision. at twenty-two, she had it surgically removed and was in recovery time for four weeks. she often wears contact lenses most of the time, however, when she's forgetful, she opts to wear her glasses.​
    โ€ข mental ailments.
    none.​
    โ€ข allergies.
    during her cataract surgery, it was discovered that erin is allergic to anaesthetic agents when they instilled a very strong numbing medication in her eye where she began to struggle breathing and her chest tightened three minutes into the surgery. the doctors first assumed it was a panic attack as she had to be awake during the procedure, but they realised she was having an allergic reaction when her face began to swell and they had to provide many sedations to calm her down.​
    โ€ข sleeping habits.
    whenever she can, erin likes to be in bed early so that she can be up early to get things done. she's definitely a morning person, but if necessary, she can also handle being awake at strange times but will eventually end up crashing anywhere at any time.​
    โ€ข eating habits.
    eating isn't something that erin plans throughout her day. if she's hungry at a certain time, then she will eat but if not, then food isn't something that she's thinking about. she's always most likely eating out, trying food from different cultures and countries โ€” food is practically the love of her life always.​
    โ€ข exercise habits.
    in high school, erin always participated in after school sports clubs, however, as she eventually graduated and started college, the only sport she kept up with was tennis. but now that she barely has any time to play because of medical school, she tries her best to do small yoga and meditation sessions at home when she can as it helps relieve stress. she also enjoys going on morning runs when the weather is quite damp and cold.​
    โ€ข emotional stability.
    erin will always say that she's okay, but she just about has her emotions in check. like a lot of people, she often has a few breakdowns due to stress but she is never one to do so in front of others. she likes to show that she has a strong front, but behind the scene is a whole other story. showing that she can be emotionally mature is something that sheโ€™s learned very young.​
    โ€ข blood type.
    ab negative.​
    โ€ข addictions.
    being born into a rich family and spoiled with many goods courtesy to her parents, erin has always treated herself with clothing from designer brands when she's feeling a certain type of way and worked hard for it. you will definitely catch her wearing something expensive. she used to do it to prove a point to her parents, but now she enjoys it.​
    โ€ข drugs?
    the closest thing to drugs that erin currently takes is ibuprofen in both gel and tablet form to help relieve the pain in her wrist, though in most cases, it doesnโ€™t usually help. other than that, sheโ€™s never really tried any stimulant drugs. the only time sheโ€™ll ever take pills is when theyโ€™re prescribed to her or to help alleviate pain from injuries or cramps.​
    โ€ข drinks alcohol?
    erin only drinks when sheโ€™s out with friends or under a lot of stress. she put off drinking a lot in high school simply because her parents always told her to stay away from it, but she eventually caved in during medical school.​
    โ€ข smoke?

i donโ€™t think thereโ€™s one right answer for this. it's important to make sure that the patient is also involved in making decisions, that way they're more likely to adhere to the doctor's chosen course of treatment. but, itโ€™s also important to satisfy the emotional needs of the patient by providing emotional support and lastly โ€“ making sure that the patient receives the most effective treatment.[/div] [div class=question]what is one fear you've overcome in the last year?[/div] [div class=answer]fear of heights, definitely. i was with a couple of friends and we decided to check out this place called 'virtual hideout' where you can play a bunch of virtual reality games. it was just something that we decided to check out because we'd never done it before. my friends thought it would be funny to make me play this one game where you enter an elevator that travels 200 metres high, and when the doors open, you have to walk a plank. it just felt so real like i was actually up in the sky. my legs were shaking but i managed to do it, and i think now, i'm not so afraid of heights anymore.[/div] [div class=question]what is your biggest regret?[/div] [div class=answer]okay, youโ€™re probably going to laugh, but i genuinely regret doing this with every fibre of my body. i was nine years old and my sister was eleven. we got into a really stupid argument, i canโ€™t even remember what over which is what really upsets me. so, anyway, i ended up throwing a remote at her but i honestly wasnโ€™t aiming for her head and wellโ€ฆ we ended up in the emergency room with my mother having to stitch up taylorโ€™s head. she still reminds me of it every now and then, just to guilt trip me, and it works.[/div] [div class=question]what is your greatest mistake?[/div] [div class=answer]ahhh... this is by far the worst mistake iโ€™ve ever done. i was seventeen when i was doing my driving test and i was really excited to finally be getting my license, but i guess my excitement got the best of me. i didnโ€™t mean to, but i ended up running over a little kitten. i didnโ€™t see it come in front of me but i felt the wheel running over it. i got out of the car immediately and sadly, the poor thing didnโ€™t make it. it breaks me heart till today.[/div] [div class=question]tell us about your favourite memory.[/div] [div class=answer]this is going to sound really silly but i think it was the first time i fell in love. i was on a school trip in malaysia and we were on a boat through the waters of malaca. it was dark but we could make out the stars and the boat moved really slowly, the water was really soothing and calm. it was the last day of the trip and we were all laughing together, making thousands of jokes and having fun. there was this one boy... what was his name? ah yes, nathan. we were really good friends and he was actually my first ever crush. he was talking, hands gesturing animatedly and while on the high of joy and nostalgia, i realised i had fallen in love with him. it felt really good... it's the kind of memory that makes you gaze up into the sky, close your eyes and wish you could experience it all over again. nathan was actually diagnosed with cancer that same year and after two years of endless surgeries and treatment, he didnโ€™t make it. i guess what i'm trying to say is that love feels good and i donโ€™t think anybody should ever hold themselves from it no matter how scary it seems.[/div] [div class=question]where do you see yourself 10 years from now?[/div] [div class=answer]honestly, i donโ€™t know. ten years is a lot of time and anything could happen. iโ€™d like to be a doctor, of course, maybe even have completed two hundred surgeries by then. is that too much or too little? i donโ€™t know. i just let things go their way.[/div] [div class=question]describe your ideal partner.[/div] [div class=answer]this is a really simple answer for me. iโ€™ve always wanted somebody that truly loves me and supports me but is also will to be vulnerable with me. that way, we can really connect and be able to talk about how we feel, our thoughts, dreams and desires. i just want somebody to really connect to, and they have to be working the same job. it's just easier that way.[/div] [div class=question]what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live?[/div] [div class=answer]one week left to liveโ€ฆ thatโ€™s really not a lot of time to do much. i think i would write letters to the people that i love and the people that i've had emotional fights or conflicts with throughout my life; i'd like them to remember me in a good way. then, i'd probably go somewhere that i really, really want to go. maybe paris? iโ€™m not sure because that changes all the time. is it selfish that i want to go alone? i mean, iโ€™ve spent a lot of my life with my family and friendsโ€ฆ so, what better way than to go out alone?[/div] [div class=question]what inspired you to become a doctor?[/div] [div class=answer style="margin-bottom: -15px;"]truthfully? i never really wanted to become a doctorโ€ฆ but i wanted to prove my father wrong that i could actually make something of myself. when i went to medical school, i slowly began to enjoy what i was learning. so, even though i walked into it with the wrong intentions, i am incredibly motivated to do the best and be the best.[/div] [/div][/div][/div] [div class=circle1][div class=circle1img][/div][/div][div class=circle2][div class=circle2img][/div][/div][div class=circle3][div class=circle3img][/div][/div][div class=plaster][/div][div class=firstaid][/div][div class=syringe][/div][div class=pills][/div] [div class="close close2" style="top: 20px; right: 20px;"]X[/div][/div] [div class="tabContents tabContents03" style="background: url(https://i.imgur.com/fIDs8Rp.png); background-size: cover; background-position: center;"][div class=bio][div class=scroll4][div class=question]where were you born?[/div] [div class=answer]itโ€™s a funny story, actuallyโ€ฆ i was born in boston, massachusetts but my mother was doing her medical internship when she was pregnant with me and when her water broke, she was observing her first-ever whipple procedure. she was very adamant on staying because you know, whipple procedures are very rare and she didnโ€™t want to miss out on the opportunity and i honestly donโ€™t blame her. luckily, there was only three hours andโ€ฆ twenty-seven minutes left of the procedure โ€“ i know, she always used to tell me this story as i child so, the details just kind of stuck with me. so, seven hours and three minutes later, i was born naturally and with no complications. the ob-gyn that delivered me actually stays in touch with my mother every now and then because she no longer works at the hospital that i was born in.[/div] [div class=question]how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically?[/div] [div class=answer]my father had just graduated from his masters in architecture when my mother gave birth to me, and as i mentioned before, my mother was doing her medical internship. neither of them were really well off with their student loans building up, but my fatherโ€™s family were very wealthy and once i came into the world, my father had to reach out to his parents for financial help because well, my parents werenโ€™t living in the best apartment and they wanted the best for my sister and i, even if it meant putting their pride aside. we ended up moving into my grandparentโ€™s house and during that time, my grandfather ended up having a heart attack. luckily, if it hadnโ€™t been for my mother, then he would have never made it, so the doctors said when they took him to the hospital. it was that moment that brought our family back togetherโ€ฆ iโ€™m not sure what happened before, but i think it had something to do with my father and mother getting married, different social statuses, i guess. but now my grandparents are very appreciative of my mother.[/div] [div class=question]have you ever moved house, city, or country?[/div] [div class=answer]the first time i moved was when i was really young, like a couple of months old, so i canโ€™t really remember the process. i was brought up in my grandparentโ€™s house in boston, until my father eventually bought his own house and that was permanent until i moved to dallas for medical school. i knew that i wanted to study elsewhere than home, to get experience, try living on my own, you know? i had it a little easy because my father did help when i couldnโ€™t pay rent, but i really tried my best. managing part-time jobs and studying was really hard, but i got there in the end. now, i have my own apartment that i share with brooke but we barely ever see each other because weโ€™re both super busy.[/div] [div class=question]what occupation did your parents have when you were born?[/div] [div class=answer]when i was born, my father was working part-time night shifts as a hotel security guard, mainly because our living conditions werenโ€™t the best and he was our main provider until we moved to live with his parents. my mom had just graduated from medical school and had started her internship, eventually becoming a licensed neurosurgeon. my father didnโ€™t really start his career until he joined his father on a project called โ€˜REBORNโ€™ where they both travelled to countries such as iran, indonesia and turkey to help construct and design buildings that have the necessary infrastructure to minimize damage caused by earthquakes. i was actually really interested in it growing up, especially because he would take me with him sometimes when he travelled. my parents were both busy workers while i was growing up, most of the time my grandparents had to look after me, but i understood why.[/div] [div class=question]how many siblings do you have?[/div] [div class=answer]i have a sister called taylor and sheโ€™s older than me by two years. weโ€™reโ€ฆ very different people, i think. she has my fatherโ€™s genes and i have my motherโ€™s. she enjoys partying and being out late, while i am the complete opposite. i love my sister, even despite how often weโ€™ve argued in the past. weโ€™re all weโ€™ve ever had really, so we appreciate each other a lot. sometimes it feels like iโ€™m older than her and that sheโ€™s my little sister, but donโ€™t tell her i said that. the roles switch every now and then, but itโ€™s nice to have her.[/div] [div class=question]were you a good student in school?[/div] [div class=answer]iโ€™d like to believe that i was a good student. i mean, i achieved really excellent grades but that was mainly thanks to my mother for always pushing me to do the best that i could without pressuring me like my father did at times. he would always say โ€™if you donโ€™t get good grades, then you wonโ€™t get a good degree and then youโ€™ll end up living a hard lifeโ€™. he always assumed that i'd do poorly like my elder sister, in a way it pushed me to work harder so that i could prove him wrong. iโ€™m just grateful for my mother, i slowly began to enjoy learning and studying because of her. my favourite subject was math and biology โ€“ iโ€™m really good at solving problems so math was something that just clicked into my head straight away. i always found biology interesting, especially when it came to learning all about the human body and how the brain works. iโ€™m rambling too much nowโ€ฆ high school was overall a decent experience. it wasnโ€™t always sunshine and rainbows, i mean, it was high school, of courseโ€ฆ the time in your life when youโ€™re discovering who you are and what you want to be. there were a lot of fallouts with friends and endless crushes, but thatโ€™s just life, you know? you make a lot of mistakes, but you learn from them and come out wiser.[/div] [div class=question]what kind of friends did you have?[/div] [div class=answer]honestly, i had a lot of friends that would come and go throughout high school. i never really stuck with one group, but i think thatโ€™s just because i got along with a lot of people in general. i actually only had one close friend, brooke, and we still keep in touch today, though weโ€™re both very busy with life and we donโ€™t get to see each other often. we actually met during open day and clicked instantly, but i didnโ€™t think weโ€™d see each other again, so when we ended up in the same school, we were both really happy. we were both equally outgoing but motivated to achieve well.[/div] [div class=question]what was the stupidest thing you did growing up?[/div] [div class=answer]iโ€™m almost one hundred per cent positive that iโ€™ve done many stupid things growing up, but the worst one yet was when i was sixteen years old and i broke my ankle just to go on a date with some boy iโ€™d had a crush on. i remember trying to tell my parents that i wanted to go out to meet said boy because i didnโ€™t want to lie to them about it, but my father instantly got protective and was against the idea because i was โ€™too youngโ€™. at sixteen, i couldnโ€™t help but talk back and well, he ended up grounding me and in retaliation, i tried to sneak out. my bedroom window had a rooftop and it was the first time iโ€™d ever tried sneaking out, so when i did, i ended up slipping and i landed awkwardly on my ankle, breaking it. letโ€™s just say that my parents werenโ€™t very happy when they were called into the hospital nor was the boy when i stood him up.[/div] [div class=question]if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be?[/div] [div class=answer]ahhโ€ฆ the worst moment of my life was when i had to have eye surgery to get rid of the cataract in my left eye. the doctors and nurses had reassured me plenty of times that iโ€™d be okay and i believed them. i was in the chair, sedated and relaxed, when the doctor first placed eyedrops into my eye to numb it and then injected the anaesthesia near my eye. even though i could barely feel when he began to make a tiny cut with the laser, i suddenly started to struggle to breathe and they had to stop the procedure. they thought i was having a panic attack at first, but my eye began to swell where he injected and thatโ€™s when they knew that i was having an allergic reaction. so, i was heavily sedated and put to sleep. it was pretty wild, to be honest. iโ€™d never thought iโ€™d be allergic to anaesthesia of all thingsโ€ฆ i wish it could have been anything else, but that really. iโ€™m just happy that i got the cataract out of my eye though before my vision worsened.[/div] [div class=question]which occupation did you want to be in growing up?[/div] [div class=answer]i wanted to be a lot growing up. first, it was an actress. my sister and i would always take turns filming each other on our motherโ€™s phone, just random scenes from movies that weโ€™d watched, like cinderella. it was funny, honestly. we sometimes look back at those videos โ€“ yes, my mom still keeps them. but then we grew up, and you know, things change. my dad used to always take us travelling with him and heโ€™d show us his artwork when he was designing buildings, so for a split moment, i wanted go into architecture. sadly, iโ€™m not artistically talented like my father and that led me to here, i guess. my father really doubted my sister and i growing up but i think thatโ€™s because taylor worries less about this stuff and so he automatically assumed that i wouldnโ€™t care either. i wanted to prove him wrong, so i chose medicine because my mother really helped me study but i slowly learned to enjoy it and now iโ€™m on my way to becoming a doctor![/div] [div class=question]are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret?[/div] [div class=answer]hmmโ€ฆ now that i think about it, i donโ€™t think i have any huge secrets. anything that happened in my past are just funny stories that iโ€™d tell over alcohol to have a laugh, probably. but then again, i donโ€™t really tell anybody my past, you know? just people that are close to me.[/div][/div][/div] [div class=ships][div class=scroll5]

    [div class=scroll] [div class=q1]Do you have any physical ailments which may affect your studying experience?
    [div class=a1]From what I can think of, I donโ€™t have any physical ailments. I do, however, may sort ofโ€ฆ suffer sometimesโ€ฆ ofโ€ฆ uhโ€ฆ erectile dysfunction. Itโ€™s a bit embarrassing, to be honest. But itโ€™s not all the time though! I mean, Iโ€™m probably just really stressed out or something. But sometimes, when Iโ€™mโ€ฆ you knowโ€ฆ having some โ€˜me timeโ€™ in the showerโ€ฆ it takes a while to finish. In factโ€ฆ sometimes I donโ€™t even get to finish. It can be super frustrating because you just want toโ€ฆ finishโ€ฆ and you canโ€™t.
    [div class=q1]Do you have any mental ailments which could interfere with your studies?[/div] [div class=a1]Iโ€™ve self-diagnosed myself with Rapid Automatized Naming Dyslexia. Basically, I struggle to retrieve information and have a slow processing speed compared to others. Itโ€™s improved over the years with a lot of self-help therapy. Not to mentionโ€ฆ I do tend to get sad from time to time. I mean, if I get overwhelmed, I tend to cry. Thereโ€™s nothing better than coming home from a long and stressful day, and having a good cry as you fall asleep. Am I right? I'm not depressed or anything. Just... sad. And exhausted... all the time... [/div] [div class=q1]Do you have any allergies we should be aware of?[/div] [div class=a1]I was never one of those โ€˜cool kidsโ€™ with an allergy. Seriously. You go on school excursions and thereโ€™d be a teacher who had a massive bag of just all these EpiPens and first aid kits because every child was allergic to something. I meanโ€ฆ eggs make my fart smell really bad? But the only thing I can think of that gives me any sort of reaction [/div] [div class=q1]What are your sleeping habits? On a scale of one to ten, how well rested do you feel in the morning?[/div] [div class=a1]I donโ€™t sleep really well. I tend to wake up in the middle of the night for an hour or two. In total, I probably get six hours of sleep. But, when I wake up in the morning, I feel exhausted still โ€“ so, Iโ€™m about a three out of ten? Iโ€™m throwing it up to stress. I really should try and get a better sleep pattern going. But with working at the hospital about to start, I donโ€™t think itโ€™s going to work out. I really do hope that I get late shifts, though; Iโ€™m a moon child. I excel in between the hours of 1am and 4am. My brain is just pure gold and magic, and I get so motivated during that time of day. [/div] [div class=q1]What are your eating habits?[/div] [div class=a1]I like to think that I eat fairly well. I'm not a picky eater and will eat just about anything you put down in front of me. My Umma makes breakfast and dinner every day for us all, and itโ€™s always a Korean dish. The only time Iโ€™ll eat something that isnโ€™t Korean is when Iโ€™m out and about by myself, and I have to buy my own lunch or something. I think Iโ€™ll have fast food maybeโ€ฆ once a month or every two months? I donโ€™t particularly miss it. Oh, and I love spicy food. Give me a ghost pepper and Iโ€™ll gladly chew on that bad boy. [/div] [div class=q1]What are your exercise habits?[/div] [div class=a1]I make sure to try and get at least thirty minutes of exercise every day. I primarily try to do it when I wake up. Just some stretches or if I have time, go for a quick jog around the block. On my days off, I like to go for hikes (my Umma is a hiking fanatic and so we used to go hiking all the time when I was a child). Iโ€™m able to perform the beep test with flying colours. So, I suppose Iโ€™m good?[/div] [div class=q1]How is your emotional stability?[/div] [div class=a1]I took the Emotional Stability Test one day becauseโ€ฆ well, I was bored and had nothing better to do apparently. Anyways, I scored a 38 out of 100. Apparently, thatโ€™s bad. They say the neutral score is 60 and that indicates a tendency towards emotional stability. However, below 60 indicates a tendency away from emotional stability. But the test has got to be wrong, right? I mean, the website had Google Ads on it and a thousand pop-ups. [/div] [div class=q1]What is your blood type?[/div] [div class=a1]I have an AB+ blood type, which is apparently very good because itโ€™s universal. If youโ€™re bleeding out, Iโ€™m the man to save you. In Korea, people are super big on blood type personalities. So, for me, my blood type says Iโ€™m either a genius of a psycho. Basically, it says Iโ€™m unpredictable (often jumping around from one activity to the next) and my personality changes depending on my mood and situation. Iโ€™m rational thinking and cannot stand it when the situation is irrational. Therefore, it can be difficult to interact with people as others think I'm moody or two-faced. And you know what โ€“ thatโ€™s so me.[/div] [div class=q1]Do you have any addictions?[/div] [div class=a1]Iโ€™m wouldnโ€™t call it an addiction, but I love Tik Tok. Iโ€™m on it every day and post new content every day too. After all, I have over eight hundred thousand followers and I get heaps of views and likes on it too. Because of all my followers, views and other stats, Tik Tok has verified me which has opened to sponsorships (which Iโ€™m not gonna say no to โ€“ ya boy has gotta eat). My favourite content to make is generally doctor or med-school related, or just relatable comedy skits. [/div] [div class=q1]Do you use recreational and/or long-term medicinal drugs? If yes, how often?[/div] [div class=a1]Suprisingly, no. I haven't tried any recreational drugs nor have had to go on any long-term medication. Lucky me, I suppose?[/div] [div class=q1]Do you drink alcohol? If yes, how often?[/div] [div class=a1]I like to socially drink. If I'm with friends, I'll have a glass or two. Apart from rice wine and Soju, I also really enjoy cider beer. I don't drink often as I never drink around my parents, and I don't get invited out to parties or meetups as much as I'd like to.[/div] [div class=q1]Do you smoke? If yes, how often?[/div] [div class=a1]No. Never once. I have never touched a cigarette and I don't think anyone should. My grandfather died of lung cancer caused by smoking. Because of his smoking habits, I never had the opportunity to know him properly. The only pictures I have with him are ones where he's on his death bed; It would've been nicer to remember him in a different light.[/div] [/div][/div]

Both of them are doctors with Umma working in a local GP while Appa works as a Neurosurgeon. Both of them met in America an odd thirty-five years ago while they were studying, and have been together ever since. [/div][/div][/div]

    [div class=scroll] Where were you born?
    I was born at Dallas County Hospital District at around four in the morning after six hours of labour (my Umma loves to remind me this when she used to wake me up at six in the morning on the weekends for tutoring). My Appa was there by my Ummaโ€™s side and from what Iโ€™ve heard, the delivery went well. She did it all naturally and vaginally (donโ€™t ask me if she had any tears because I havenโ€™t asked her and I donโ€™t really want to ask her). She had a midwife but did call in another doctor because apparently my umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck? Apart from that, I was a healthy newborn size. I was five pounds and seven ounces, and nineteen centimetres (7.5 inches). Nothing out of the ordinary.

    How has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically?
    My living arrangements have been the same for a large majority of my life. We lived in Dallas for the first two years of my life before moving back to South Korea to spend time with my grandfather who was very sick. We ended up living with my grandfather in Ulsan for two and a half years, with my parents helping him in his final days. Once he passed away, we ended up moving back to Dallas. Economically, weโ€™ve always had a very stable income coming into the house. Both my parents were mature when I was brought into the world (my Umma had just celebrated her 40th birthday three days before giving birth), so they had an established career and savings placed aside. Also, when my grandfather died, he left inheritance in his will to my Umma. Looking at our social circles, my parents are devoted Catholics, so when we spent time with other families, it was either with family from church, or we were at church.

    What occupation did your parents have when you were born?
    Both of my parents are doctors. My Appa is a neuro-surgeon and my Umma is a local GP doctor. Not only that, by my grandfather on my Umma's side and my grandmother on my Appa's side were very respected doctors in small towns they grew up in. Growing up, I was practically raised to become a doctor. I had no choice. My parents had huge expectations for me being a doctor, and if I didnโ€™t meet those standards, I was often disciplined.

    How many siblings do you have?
    I donโ€™t have any siblings. Iโ€™m an only child and from the sounds of it, I wasnโ€™t a planned child either. Both of my parents are very work-orientated. My Umma was forty when she gave birth to me and my Appa was thirty-nine. They were both very mature, and so I suppose my arrival into the world wasnโ€™t something they had planned for their future. My Appa also had a vasectomy when he was thirty; which, you know, itโ€™s questionable. Like, is he my real father? According to my parents, he is. And after some research, I did find out that there is a 2-10/1,000 chance of getting pregnant even if your partner has a vasectomy โ€“ thatโ€™s less than 1% chance. I suppose my Appa had some strong swimmers.

    Were you a good student in school?
    I tried to be. School was hard. My parents had such a great expectation for my grades, that if I came home with a lower grade than their expectations, I would often be disciplined for it. I would have my laptop, phone or PlayStation taken away until I came back with a better grade. If my grades didnโ€™t get better, it would often lead to a good old smackdown with any item that was closeby (like a broom or a wooden spoon) or a traditional Korean punishment of having to hold my arms up in the air as high as a could until my parents said I could put them down again.

    My biggest issue with school was I was finding it hard to name letters, symbols, words, or any objects with a quick manner like the other children in the class could. I felt like I was so much slower than everyone and would often feel inadequate. It wasnโ€™t until I started studying medicine that I self-diagnosed myself with Rapid Automatized Naming Dyslexia, which causes you to struggle to retrieve information and causes a slow processing speed. My parents would often say that I was just lazy; mainly because I was too afraid to tell them that I was struggling. To keep on top of my grades, I would often study twice or three times the amount the other children in class would. I had tutors help me on the weekends and some weeknights also. This didnโ€™t leave much time for friends outside of school, so I mainly kept to myself apart from a handful of people that I would see both at school and at church.

    What kind of friends did you have?
    I wasnโ€™t extremely close with anyone apart from my girlfriend, Eve. I met Eve at church with my parents, before I discovered that she actually attended my school too. The next school year, she was in a couple of my classes and eventually, we began to date. But in secret, because both our parents were very anti-dating while at school. But being with Eve allowed both of our friendship circles to open up. I donโ€™t talk to any of them anymore, but I do have them on Facebook and Instagram, so I know what theyโ€™re up to these days

    What was the stupidest thing you did growing up?
    Iโ€™ve done a lot of dumb stuff at school with my friends, like making small balls our of wet toilet paper and then throwing it up to hit the ceiling. It would stick and eventually, after a year, we managed to cover half the boyโ€™s bathrooms with basically paper mache from the toilet paper and water. You know, dumb teenage stuff youโ€™d do when youโ€™re bored or looking for something to do.

    I do remember, though, when I was little (probably around six or seven), I thought ants came from sugar. My reason behind that hypothesis was because every time I spilled something sugary, ants would just show up. My little mind was amazed by it and curious. So, to test things out, I poured some sugar on my Appaโ€™s head while he was napping on the couch. There were no ants and no ants came. Not only was I confused (because I was so sure that the ants would come), my Appa woke up just as confused to why there was sugar in his hair and all over his face.

    If you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be?
    The worst moment I think would have the time my parents found out about Eve and I. I was sixteen at the time and had been stupid enough to leave the wrapper of the condom we used in my jeans pocket (hereโ€™s the real kicker; I had placed it in my pocket because we were in a hurry and we didnโ€™t want to throw the wrapper out in her rubbish bin, so I had been planning on throwing it out at the shops but obviously forgot about it). My Umma was washing my clothes and found the wrapper. She went through my phone and found that I had been texting Eve and forgot to delete a text here I told her I loved her.

    Umma then called up Eveโ€™s family and told them everything that happened. They all came over and proceeded to spend the next two hours, yelling and screaming at Eve and me. Saying how we were no longer pure in the eyes of God and how theyโ€™ve broken their trust. And, as old fashion Korean parents do, they physically disciplined us. Eve and her family moved churches and school after that night and I havenโ€™t spoken to Eve since. She was the love of my life, and I just couldn't understand how my parents were so against us being together. I mean, we were happy together. Was that so wrong? Apparently, it was.

    Which occupation did you want to be in growing up?
    When I was younger, I was really interested in cameras and filming. My parents wouldnโ€™t let me have my own camera, saying it was too expensive. The only reason I had a PlayStation was because I won it in a school fair raffle. I suppose it would explain my love and a slight addiction to Tik Tok. I really enjoy making videos and doing gameplay videos. But the only reason I became a doctor was because itโ€™s what my parents wanted. After the Eve incident, they told me that if I didnโ€™t start behaving and follow their expectations, they would send me to live on my Auntyโ€™s farm in Korea.

    I wish I could say I fell in love with the idea of becoming a doctor. But then Iโ€™d be lying. Many people ask me โ€˜why donโ€™t you just leave your parents? Youโ€™re old enough to not take orders from themโ€™. But the fact is, theyโ€™re my parents. They just want whatโ€™s good for me. All the screaming and hitting, it was a lead up to a future that they had planned for me. And itโ€™s a future where Iโ€™ll be well off and able to care for my wife, children and the generations afterwards.

    Are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret?
    I donโ€™t like to talk much about my parents, or their approach to my life. Some people in the past have told me to leave or to tell the police because itโ€™s โ€˜abuseโ€™. What people fail to see is that my parents just want whatโ€™s best for me. I might not want to be a doctor now, but in the future, itโ€™ll do me good. Itโ€™ll give me a stable income and opens doors to incredible career opportunities. I really do hope that one day I end up loving being a doctor as much as my parents do. The other thing people donโ€™t realise is how Korean families discipline. If we lived in Korea, this would be absolutely normal. My parents would tell me of the things that they used to get in trouble for and how they were disciplined. This is nothing compared to how they discipline me.

    [div class=q]What brings you to Forest Park Medical Center?
    [div class=a]To start my residency. Andโ€ฆ to be completely honest? Itโ€™s the closest hospital to my house and my Dad has an office here. I mean, Iโ€™m sure thereโ€™s a lot of amazing doctors here that I can work with and learn from and stuff. But, like โ€“ carpooling. Hello! Not only that but only a ten-minute drive home after a long day. A fifteen-minute bus ride. Hellllo. Iโ€™d be stupid to not apply here.
    [div class=q]What do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency? [/div] [div class=a]By the end of my residency, Iโ€™d like to feel the way that every other doctor feels at the end of the day. My Umma and Appa would tell me what itโ€™s like to be a doctor at the end of a long day. They go home, tired and exhausted. But they also have an overwhelming sense of accomplishment and pride in their work. I hope that one day Iโ€™m as passionate to be a doctor like they are.[/div] [div class=q]What is the most important aspect of patient care? [/div] [div class=a]Listening to the patients. Justโ€ฆ listening in general. Whatโ€™s the point of treating someone if youโ€™re not really listening to their symptoms? People are our there, pleading to be heard. But it falls on deaf ears. I want to be someone that people can talk to and not feel ashamed for who they are and what they stand for. [/div] [div class=q]What is one fear you've overcome in the last year? [/div] [div class=a]Spiders? Iโ€™m not too sure if you want me to be completely honest? Thereโ€™s a lot of things that I still fear that I really shouldnโ€™t. But I do know that the big ass spider that was hanging in my closest is more scared of me than I was of him as heโ€™s sitting up there in spider heaven. Or hell. Who knows. He couldโ€™ve been apart of illegal trades on the web. Thatโ€™s a joke. You need to laugh now. [/div] [div class=q]What is your biggest regret? [/div] [div class=a]Not having full control of life and my destiny. So many times I wanted to stand up against my parents. But, like I remind everyone else, theyโ€™re just looking out for me. They want the best for me and my future. [/div] [div class=q]What is your greatest mistake? [/div] [div class=a]Leaving that damn condom wrapper in my jeans pocket. Who knows how much longer Eve and I couldโ€™ve spent together before one of our parents actually realised what was going on. [/div] [div class=q]Tell us about your favourite memory. [/div] [div class=a]I won a PlayStation during a raffle at a school fair. My parents gave me five bucks and I decided to spend it on the raffle. They were so mad at me for โ€˜gamblingโ€™ and began to tell me that I wouldnโ€™t get it because โ€˜naughty boys donโ€™t get blessed by Godโ€™. Well, I mustโ€™ve been good because I won first prize. That PlayStation is my pride and joy. [/div] [div class=q]Where do you see yourself 10 years from now? [/div] [div class=a]Happy, hopefully. That's all I want and need to be in ten years from now. [/div] [div class=q]Describe your ideal partner. [/div] [div class=a]An ideal partner? Someone kind and loving. Who will just lay down with me, stroke my hair and say nice, encouraging things to me. Honestlyโ€ฆ I donโ€™t care what they look like, who they were (I mean, please be of legal age and not like, a massive age gap)โ€ฆ But if they love me for who I am โ€“ all my broken parts and messed up thoughts โ€“ then thatโ€™s my ideal type. [/div] [div class=q]What would you do if you found out you had a week left to live? [/div] [div class=a]Have sex again. Oh my god. Itโ€™s been likeโ€ฆ six or seven years? The day Eve took my virginity was the first and only time Iโ€™ve ever had sex. I mean, Iโ€™d love for it to happen again. However, I do live at home with my parents (Itโ€™s just cheaper that way and Iโ€™m able to save money โ€“ plus, theyโ€™re getting kinda old now too.). So bringing a girl back home probably wouldnโ€™t be the smartest thing in the world. But if I was dying, heckโ€ฆ let the ladies line out the front of my door. Iโ€™m either gonna die from this pre-planned death or my Umma throwing her shoe at my head.[/div] [div class=q]What inspired you to become a doctor? [/div] [div class=a]Nothing really โ€˜inspiredโ€™ me. It wasnโ€™t an option in my household. It was either youโ€™re a doctor or youโ€™re going to live on a farm with your Aunty in Korea. But Iโ€™d love to have one of those moments where itโ€™s like a crystalising moment and you just know that youโ€™re meant to be a doctor. [/div] [/div][/div][/div]

    the interview
    [div class=scroll]โ†’ what brings you to forest park medical center? "well, its positive reviews for one. i've only heard amazing things about this hospital and its success in setting up young doctors with a fulfilling, lifelong career. it seemed like the perfect fit for someone like me, who's aspiring to grow into an accomplished physician."
    โ†’ what do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency? "independence, confidence, and experience. i feel as though those three things are the most important to me, especially because i plan to specialize in er medicine in the future."
    โ†’ what is the most important aspect of patient care? "definitely preserving dignity. so much of that is lost when you're a patient in the hospital and i think giving people the chance to help control their own healthcare is so important."
    โ†’ what is one fear you've overcome in the last year? "going after what i want. i was really intimated by the idea of applying for residency in a hospital program that is so competitive, but i'm glad i did it after all."
    โ†’ what is your biggest regret? "always procrastinating. i know i'm young still, but i feel as though all the times i procrastinated in the past really slowed things down for me in terms of accomplishing my goals in life."
    โ†’ what is your greatest mistake? "talking about people behind their backs. it always catches up with you, one way or another. i learned the best approach is to just be honest, even if the truth is hard to swallow."
    โ†’ tell us about your favourite memory. "getting ice cream from this delicious ice cream parlour on the beach. my baby brother was just about to take a bite of his when a seagull pooped on him."
    โ†’ where do you see yourself 10 years from now? "man, i'll be old in 10 years! i don't know... i really hope that i'll be an up and coming physician in the er. i love that atmosphere so much and it would ideally be where i'd work for a lot of my career."
    โ†’ describe your ideal partner. "work partner? at work, i get along best with people who can laugh and share my sense of dark humour while also taking their jobs seriously. people who treat each patient like their mum or dad and put their all into each case are amazing. i love working with them. as for a romantic partner, someone who is adventurous and willing to put up with my grumpy butt all the time. you know? you're tired when you come home from work, so it'd be nice to have someone who understood that."
    โ†’ what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live? "a week left, huh? um, i'd probably eat all the junk food in the world and spend the rest of my money on travelling with my family. i think i'd go to australia or south africa and swim with sharks. i've always wanted to do that."
    โ†’ what inspired you to become a doctor? "the age old question, right? well, i really enjoy just how much medicine is like a puzzle. you need all the little pieces to get the big picture and it's really satisfying. er medicine is especially enticing to me because of the adrenaline rush. there's nothing like it. i've always been interested in that kind of thing, ever since i was a little girl watching 'er'. you know, the one with young george clooney in it. god, i love that show!"
    [/div]
    the history
    [div class=scroll]โ†’ where were you born? "i was born in a hospital in fort lauderdale, with the help of a whole labour and delivery team. the only complication was the tear my mum experienced (sorry mum), so we were lucky! everything went smoothly and my dad was there to witness it, along with my mum's parents."
    โ†’ how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically? "i was really lucky to be born into a well off family. we've moved around a bit because of my parents' professions, but mostly when my brother and i were young. we lived in california for a few years at one point, but then moved back to fort lauderdale, where i was born. we've lived there ever since."
    โ†’ what occupation did your parents have when you were born? my mum is a lawyer and my dad's a physiotherapist, so i guess you could say i was kind of influenced to join the medical profession thanks to my father."
    โ†’ how many siblings do you have? "i have a younger brother, who's 23 now. we get along really well surprisingly, but it's the kind of sibling relationship where you can talk shit about each other and still laugh about it. i love him."
    โ†’ were you a good student in school? "oh yeah, i was that stereotypical nerd girl. my favourite subject was biology (still is, obviously). i was bullied a bit, here and there, but it was never anything bad. i think, if anything, it just taught me not to be anything like those people."
    โ†’ what kind of friends did you have? "back home in florida, i only had one close friend. we did everything together. i still talk to her now, but we're not as close. i made other friends in med school, too, but because i transferred out to texas for my residency, i'm going to have to make new friends altogether, which kind of terrifies me."
    โ†’ what was the stupidest thing you did growing up? "honestly? i don't know. i didn't really do a lot of stupid stuff growing up, mostly because my parents were pretty strict. i swore in front of them once, when i was fourteen, and they threatened to take away all of my books for a month. so... yeah."
    โ†’ if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be? "the worst moment of my life was when hurricane irma hit a couple of years ago. we lost our house and cars and wound up living with family in new york for a few months while we recovered our lives in florida. it was a scary time."
    โ†’ have you ever moved house, city, or country? we moved to california when i was fifteen and my brother was eleven, thanks to mum getting a job out there. we lived there for two years before moving back to florida. it was fun while it lasted, but i think we missed home. it was good to get back to the city i grew up in."
    โ†’ which occupation did you want to be in growing up? "i originally wanted to be a marine biologist, but somewhere along the lines that shifted into wanting to pursue medicine instead. maybe it was thanks to the 'er' show i watched all the time, who knows. but i'm glad i chose med school after all. i love it."
    โ†’ are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret? "sure. everyone has their secrets. mine would probably get me disowned from my family, but... no one needs to know that."

    Her younger brother, Jake. He's 23 and in school at the University of Fort Lauderdale to become a biomedical engineer. He's charming, flirty, humorous, and overall a fun, positive person to be around. He and Lydia get on like two peas in a pod despite the occasional sibling bickering.

    [div class="line"] [div class="lineheader"] xhealth. [/div] [/div] [div class="bodytext"] physical ailments: thanks to his dumbass decision at 12, wells gets a piercing pain in his lungs if he runs for too long. he also has hella bad knees so has to wear knee supports if he's on his feet for the majority of the day, which, working at a hospital, is likely to be the case.

    mental ailments: he was diagnosed with anxiety as a child and now takes daily medication for it.

    allergies: stupid people. and parsley.

    sleeping habits: nonexistent. sleep? don't know her. but in all seriousness, wells' sleeping patterns/habits are very messed up. on days he's not at the hospital, he goes to bed around 1-2am and wakes up at noon. sleeping habits on days he is at the hospital all vary depending on the time of his shift.

    eating habits: usually eats twice a day. breakfast first and then dinner a few hours later. lunch is usually skipped, especially if he gets up late. but on days at the hospital, he rarely has time for lunch so just doesn't eat. also, if he has coffee, he counts that as a meal. it's usually enough to last him all day until dinner.

    exercise habits: wells tries to workout as much as possible. on days without work, he goes to the gym for 2 hours. on days at the hospital, he will do push ups, wall sits, planks, etc. during his breaks.

    emotional stability: ha. good one. the anxiety meds have really helped his emotional stability, but sometimes, his emotions are all out of whack, especially if he's gotten very little sleep on consecutive days. wells will either be very, very hyper or pissed off and irritable. he also occasionally still gets panic attacks, but we don't talk about them.

    blood type: b-negative

    addictions: if you can call caffeine an addiction, then yes. wells is drinking coffee all the time. if not coffee, than some sort of energy drink or tea.

    drugs?: not the scary, hardcore stuff, no way. but sometimes at concerts he'll do a tab of acid. only very occasionally.

    drinks alcohol?: oh absolutely. he'll never drink the night before a shift or during a shift at the hospital. but if he doesn't have to be at the hospital the next day, you can bet your bottom dollar that wells will be at some local bar, cracking open a cold one with the boys. if he doesn't have to be at the hospital over the weekend, then he will be at a bar or club downtown, dancing and drinking the night away.

    smoke?: absolutely not. he thinks cigarettes are disgusting and having spent 4 years in med school, knows just how bad they are for you. but smoking the devils lettuce? well... sometimes. but thats a whole different story. [/div] [/div] [div class="content detailsinfo hidecontent"] [div class="line" style="margin-top: 6px;"] [div class="lineheader"] xinterview. [/div] [/div] [div class="bodytext"] what brings you to forest park medical center?
    "well, everyone knows that the united states has the best medical care and hospitals. it's common knowledge. when i decided i wanted to pursue a medical career, i knew i needed to go to the usa to receive the best schooling and opportunities available. so, after finishing up university in london, i applied for medical schools all over the usa and got into stanford med, which i have attended the last four years. during my last year there, i visted and interviewed at hospitals all over the country to begin my residency at. i don't know what it is, but forest park definitely gives me the best vibe. maybe it's the atmosphere, location, camaraderie between the doctors, residents and interns. i don't know. all i know is that forest park is definitely a place i can see myself, definitely a place that will set me up for success."

    what do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency?
    "first, to learn all that i can about saving people. i want to learn the best ways to save people quickly but efficiently. second, i'm hoping to be able to spend time observing the er operations and maybe participate in a trauma surgery or observe the trauma surgeon at work. lastly, to have a job secured/lined up in the trauma surgery department or in the er."

    what is the most important aspect of patient care?
    "easy. making sure the person lives. but, aside from that, making sure the person is treated correctly. if surgery is needed, than the surgery goes smoothly and also correctly. then, making sure the person has all they need for a safe and comfortable recovery."

    what is one fear you've overcome in the last year?
    "i know you all are going to laugh, because 'big bad aspiring doc is afraid of what?' but i've been afraid of spiders for as long as i can remember. there, go ahead, laugh all you want. but, a few months ago, i held a tarantula and didn't freak out. it was a major accomplishment. then, a few weeks later, i picked up and held a daddy long legs spider and again, didn't freak out. so, i think it's safe to say that i'm over my arachnophobia."

    what is your biggest regret?
    "honestly? i have too many to count. all of my regrets come from adrenaline-inducing, life risking activities, so you know you're about to be in for a wild ride here, but... hold on, let me think... ah, yes, got it. so i've been bungee jumping before, obviously, but one time, we were on vacation in south america and had the option to go bungee jumping. for some reason, when it was my turn, i just froze and refused to go. maybe it was how high up it was, maybe it was the fact that some of the gear looked a little rusty, who knows. all i know is that i didn't go and have been kicking myself ever since."

    what is your greatest mistake?
    *wells just chuckles at this* "so, once upon a time, twelve year old me looks out of the window and sees that there is a blizzard outside. for some reason or another, i decided that it would be a great idea to climb a huge tree during said blizzard. so, on go the snow clothes and snow boots and out i venture into the snow. i get very high up in the tree and am pretty proud of myself, but then my foot slips and down down down i go. i landed hard on my ribcage and a blinding pain shoots through my whole body and i pass out. next thing i know, i wake up in a hospital bed. turns out i broke several ribs and one of them managed to puncture a lung so obviously, i needed surgery. now i have a huge scar on the right side of my ribcage. it looks ugly and still hurts."

    tell us about your favorite memory.
    "oh. easy. tommy, oliver, logan, finn, my best friends, and i were about seventeen or so, spending our last summer together before university in ibiza. the house we were staying at was right on the beach. how we afforded it, i don't know. anyways, some adult beverages were consumed and tommy and finn decide to go skinny dipping, thinking it was our own private beach. so out they go, buck ass naked and drunk. well, the idiots were wrong because, as they cross the sand, they spot a family with several young children having a dinnertime picnic on the beach. instead of running back inside, the dumbasses make a beeline for the water and dive in. then they realize that was a mistake because now they have to stay in the water until the family leaves unless they want the cops getting called. meanwhile, logan, oliver and i are inside laughing our asses off and, in typical teenage boy fashion, we decide to film the whole encounter and don't bother helping them. not sure why that's my favorite memory, but it is."

    where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
    "working in the er or trauma department. as an adrenaline junkie, i need fast-paced, stress-filled environments. i thrive in them. the er and trauma are prime examples of the environment i need--people come in with all sorts of life-threatening injuries and it requires fast acting and an immediate diagnosis. also, as one who frequented the er growing up, i'd love to be able to give back to the doctors that treated me by becoming one of them and treating those who have injuries just like mine. i can also see myself working as a skydiving or surfing instructor as a side hustle."

    describe your ideal partner.
    "the second you asked this, my mind went off in two different directions. so, i'll explain the different directions. my ideal partner in the hospital/medical world would be someone just like me--thrives in fast-paced, adrenaline pumping environments, someone who is funny but also takes their job seriously and gets shit done. my ideal love and life partner would be someone who is funny, yes, but also someone who can ground me, be my anchor. i get a little too carried away sometimes and need someone to step in and put their foot down while telling me 'no, wells, you can't do that.'."

    what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live?
    "do everything i've ever dreamed of and everything in my bucket list journal. yes, i have a bucket list journal. i'd first head back to south america to bungee jump off that cliff i was too scared of. then i'd ski the french and swiss alps, walk around germany, france, italy, etc. i'd definitely hit the red light district because why not? go club hopping in barcelona, which isn't all that hard considering they're all right next to each other on the beach. oh, i'd also climb a tree in a snowstorm again, though without falling off this time. and, on the last day, i'd try parsley for the first time which will probably end up being the thing that kills me."

    what inspired you to become a doctor?
    "tough question, but i'm guessing it had a lot t do with my experience at twelve. i woke up in an unfamiliar place with no idea how i got there and was absolutely terrified. however, the nurses and doctors took wonderful care of me and made sure i wanted for nothing during my recovery. also, hospitals are scary for kids (and some adults), but these people made the experience much less scary. another thing that might've influenced me to become a doctor was just everything i saw and heard about. seeing pictures and videos of sick, injured and/or starving people, hearing stories about an entire town wiped out from illness due to lack of proper medical care... i knew i had to give back somehow, and so i chose to become a doctor."


    [/div] [div class="line" style="margin-top: 6px;"] [div class="lineheader"] xbackstory. [/div] [/div] [div class="bodytext"] where were you born? โฌ in a hospital, a home, elsewhere? who delivered you; a midwife, a doctor, a relative? were there any complications? did your mother survive? who was present to witness the birth? โญ
    "i was born in edinburgh, actually. my parents were taking a mini holiday that weekend and my twin brother and i decided that we wanted to explore the world a little early. so, off they went to the royal infirmary of edinburgh and out we came. we had to be delivered via c-section since one, we were in an abnormal position and two, delivering twins was always hard. other than that, there weren't any complications. i was pulled out first and then my brother was two minutes later. mum was tired, but yes, she did survive. only dad was there for the birth, but he made the mistake of looking over the curtain and fainted at the sight of mum's stomach."

    how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically? โฌ in other words, has your family gained or lost a fortune? has someone close to you died? have you moved house? โญ
    "i want to say that the living situation has improved as the years went by. mam is a lawyer. dad got promoted, is now the coo of barclay's bank in aberdeen. has to travel a lot though. so, i guess we gained a fortune? over the years, i've lost my great-grandparents and maternal grandmother, but still have my other grandparents. and while my brother and i have moved to the united states, the rest of the family is still in scotland."

    what occupation did your parents have when you were born? โฌ did it ever change as you grew older? has this influenced you in any way? โญ
    "mam has always been fascinated with law so she followed a legal career path and became a lawyer. however, she stopped working for a bit when my brother and i were born, followed by our younger sister. but when we were all in secondary school, she went back to work. she's a lawyer, you know. works for the top legal firm, brodies. dad was just a regular employee at barclay's, but he did such a good job that he got promoted. so it hasn't really changed. and i want to say it has influenced me, but i'm not sure how. i'm the only one that wants to go into medicine, first in the family. but maybe their passion and determination for their jobs has influenced me."

    how many siblings do you have? โฌ do you get along or fight often? if so, what about? which sibling are you closest to, and why? โญ
    "two. my twin brother, lachlan, or locky for short, and then my younger sister, amilia. i'm definitely closest to locky (obviously). we have the whole twin bond and twin telepathy thing and always seem to know what the other is thinking. he's my best friend. growing up, locky and i always picked on and fought amilia, however, she bit back as she got older. dropkicking her into the sofa became a lot harder. soon, the dropkicking brothers turned into the protective big brothers and the whole 'i don't like your boyfriend' mode was activated. however, we all are good friends and get along swimmingly."

    were you a good student in school? โฌ what was your favourite subject? did they face any kind of bullying or abuse? how has this altered you? does this still affect you today, and how? โญ
    "eh, i was an okay student in school. favorite subjects were history and music, i got straight a's, played sports, etc. but i wasn't the greatest influence on my peers. i got bored easily and zoned out, often distracted the other students. when my anxiety flared up, school was awful. panic attacks happened more often than i can count. some kids were understanding and helped me through it, but others thought i was a freak and made fun of me. lachlan didn't say or do much usually, but when those kids did that, he was my protector, my guardian. he told them off and made sure i was okay. they stopped, but he was always there, checking in on me. nowadays, anxiety is talked about often and there isn't as big of a stigma surrounding it as there was when i was growing up. no one is making fun of me anymore and everyone is understanding me. a panic attack hasn't happened at the hospital, but if it does, at least i'm surrounded by people who know what to do. and, when kids who are incredibly anxious come into the hospital, it is usually me who calms them down and helps them through it as someone who has experienced the same thing."

    what kind of friends did you have? โฌ were they a "good" or "bad" influence? how did they change you? how long did you remain friends? โญ
    "locky was my best friend, but i also had a group of four that were close to me. i say they were a good influence but everyone else would say they were bad. we got into so much trouble, my god. broke curfew, snuck out of the house, went to parties we definitely should not have been at, did things we definitely should not have been doing. you know the saying 'if your friend told you to jump off a bridge, would you?' well, my friends would absolutely encourage me to do it, i would do it, and they'd do it with me. even though we got into all sorts of shit, they were my brothers, always had my back and made me who i am today. we're still friends. one now lives in houston, not too far away from locky and i, one is in boston, and the other two are back in scotland. we still have weekly facetimes."

    what was the stupidest thing you did growing up? โฌ did you break any laws, pull a prank, disappoint a parent? โญ
    "the more i repeat the tree story, the dumber i feel. it was definitely climbing that tree during a snowstorm, breaking my ribs and puncturing a lung. my parents were not happy. not in the slightest. another thing my dumbass did was get hammered at fifteen and get a tattoo using my older cousins id. no idea how it happened, considering the tattoo artist isn't supposed to tattoo a drunk person and i also looked fifteen and nothing like my cousin, but i woke up the next morning with a bird tattooed on my back. i can show you if you'd like."

    if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be? โฌ how has that changed you as a person? how has it changed how you see the world, themselves, and others? โญ
    "i wanna say it was the falling out of the tree, but i don't think so. i think it was my first ever panic attack at school that lead to the anxiety diagnosis. i remember sitting in my maths class and then suddenly, was called on to solve a problem at the board. i went up and couldn't solve it and then this overwhelming panic took over and i couldn't breathe. i'm not sure what was worse--not being able to breathe or having this happen in front of the entire class. luckily, my brother was there to calm me down, but it was still awful. and to this day, i still feel sick to my stomach thinking about it. but now, i know what it's like to live with anxiety and can easily put myself in other's shoes, know what they're going through. the whole situation toughened me up. it helped me figure out what to do in case of another panic attack, helped me learn to live with anxiety, that it's not the be-all-end-all in life."

    have you ever moved house, city, or country? โฌ what led to this change? which place do you considering your "home"? do you view this move or its cause with bitterness, hope, something else? โญ
    "yep. moved from aberdeen to london, england for university. then i moved from london to northern california, heading out of the uk for the first time and living in a completely new country with a very different culture. and then i moved from california to dallas, texas. lot of moving in the span of a few years. i'll always consider scotland my home, but dallas is really starting to grow on me. and i absolutely view this move with hope. i moved here to achieve my dreams, it's definitely filled with hope."

    which occupation did you want to be in growing up? โฌ is this the same as what you wish to be, or are in, now? what inspired you to want this career? what led you onto the path to becoming a doctor? โญ
    "oh boy," *chuckles nervously* "growing up, i really wanted to be an actor or a chef. the chef hopes were dashed when i nearly burnt the house down making pasta, but the acting dreams lasted for a long time. they started when i saw leo dicaprio on titanic when i was five, pointed at the screen and was like 'that's me, that's what i'm gonna be when i grow up!'. i took a few acting classes and even did a few school productions, but really disliked the whole memorization of lines aspect that came with acting. so, that dream went up in flames. as i mentioned before, my inspiration to become a doctor was probably my experiences growing up. just seeing pictures and videos of sick, injured and/or starving people, and then hearing stories on the news or through word of mouth about illnesses and all killing entire cities. it ignited this flame in me that wouldn't go out. now this was a career path that i knew i could actually stick with and do. so, here i am today.

    are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret? โฌ why? or are you open about your past? โญ
    "not really. i mean, i don't broadcast the fact that i used to suffer from (and occasionally still do) panic attacks, but it's not exactly a secret. i prefer to stay an open book." [/div]

    [div class="tabContents tabContents02"]
    hair color & length : a dark brown that almost looks black in certain lightings, he leaves it long enough to curl and never seems to do anything more with it than put a hat over it
    eye color : a piercing blue-green that's framed by unfairly long lashes
    height : six foot two (188 cm)
    weight : 176 lbs (80 kg)
    build : while not exceedingly bulky, he's well-muscled and obviously in shape
    tattoos : just one, a small silhouette of a bird under his left clavicle
    scars : a scattering of insignificant ones from a boyishly reckless childhood, as well as a deeper gash across his hairline mostly hidden by his hair
    piercings : pierced left ear
    distinguishing features : blessed with a jawline sharp enough to cut glass and a full lower lip (that makes it look like a perpetual pout) โ€” overall, a face that could break hearts at fifty paces
    face claim : daniel illescas
    [div class="tabContents tabContents03"]
    physical ailments : he has an ankle injury from childhood that never healed quite right, so on days where it's cold (which are few and far in between, thank goodness) or he's exhausted, he walks with a noticeable limp.
    mental ailments : undiagnosed anxiety that makes itself especially noticeable in high-tension situations that seem like they might devolve into conflict. he's had a few panic attacks, none of which he's recognized for what they are and simply waved off after they happened.
    allergies : none.
    sleeping habits : his sleeping schedule is fairly stable and nets him an even six hours a night, but he's prone to overworking himself which can cut into that beauty sleep. he's an unrepentant morning person and horribly cheery before 8 AM.
    eating habits : extremely variable. although he tries to eat healthy when he can, his meals are the last thing he plans out beforehand, so it's also not uncommon to see him digging into a frozen dinner. he probably has an unhealthy reliance on coffee and possesses an insatiable sweet tooth.
    exercise habits : if possible, he hits the gym for about an hour every day, but if not possible, then he at least maintains a strict regime of five hours a week at minimum. he goes on half-hour runs in the mornings every weekday as well.
    emotional stability : if anyone were to interact with him, they'd endlessly endorse his stability, but the issue is telling how much of that is a front. enzo is the kind of guy to seem like he totally has it all together even when he's running himself into the ground, and he has an issue with bottling up negative emotions until it all just overflows. while rarely ever angry, his temper โ€” if triggered โ€” is terrifying. on the whole, though, maybe it's reassuring to know that he is genuinely okay, for the most part.
    blood type : A-plus
    addictions : besides the aforementioned unhealthy reliance on coffee, he usually stays clear of anything and everything that can get him hooked.
    drugs ? if you offer any to him, he'll kindly but firmly turn you down. he's tried some recreational marijuana in his teen hellion days, but nothing since then. he's so extremely averse to the idea that he doesn't even take prescribed painkillers, preferring to suffer through rather than risk addiction.
    drinks alcohol ? like any young bachelor, he usually has a six-pack of beer in his fridge somewhere. if he's going out with friends or hitting the bar for a night out, he'll definitely down more than his fair share.
    smoke ? nope! he's seen the impacts of cigarettes enough to never put one in his mouth.

    โ› what brings you to forest park medical center? โœ
    "i bet you don't need another person gushing to you, but really, the quality of the practice here is insane. i have no doubt that this is a place that can help me reach my highest potential. besides that, though, i just really needed a change of pace from chicago, and you really can't get much different from that than sunny old dallas."

    โ› what do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency? โœ
    "i mean, becoming a doctor? do you get a lot of different answers? i want to better myself as a surgeon and hopefully as a person, and be able to take my skills to free clinics and disadvantaged neighborhoods. i've got my eye on pediatric surgeryโ€”because there's a lot of little kids out there who need help, and not a lot of people who are willing."

    โ› what is the most important aspect of patient care? โœ
    "the advocacy, undoubtedly. you cannot be a doctor without also being an advocate for your patient. the healthcare system is hard to navigate and designed to keep certain people out, which means that you fight for your patient not just in the operating room but everywhere."

    โ› what is one fear you've overcome in the last year? โœ
    "didn't realize this was going to be so in-depth, but sure. i'm not the biggest fan of, like, small and cramped spaces? never have been. but my friends and i, we were celebrating the end of medical school with a party. naturally, this devolved into seven minutes in heavenโ€”you can probably guess what happened from there, but after the initial three minutes of trying to not freak out, the remaining four were fun. cute guy, good kisser. definitely would do it again, though preferably not in a closet."

    โ› what is your biggest regret? โœ
    "wow, going for the hard-hitting questions, huh? i have a lot of those. regrets, i mean. but my biggest... so my dad was a deadbeat, full offense intended, and he could getโ€”a little violent, sometimes. not often, but he'd rough me up a little and then go off somewhere to get drunk. i did my best to protect my little brother from the nastier aspects, but i don't think i did a very good job of it. and i don't think i was a very good big brother, either. i hate that i never knew what was going on in his life, and i hate that he never felt like he could open up to me."

    โ› what is your greatest mistake? โœ
    "it all comes back to my brother, i guess. he fell into a bad crowd young, and i fished him out from that one only for him to immediately get caught up in an even worse one. they got him hooked onโ€”on all sorts of things, god, i don't even know what. he was a mess. always high or otherwise going through withdrawal, stealing and committing petty crimes for money to gt his next fix, and he needed a safe place to come downโ€”a better, safer place than my apartment. i checked him in to a rehab center, and it was expensive, especially when i was trying to put myself through medical school, but he was getting better. he was. he was clean for almost three months, but the next thing i know, they called me to tell me he just up and left in the middle of the night. i looked for him everywhere, i swear to god i turned that whole city upside down. but i never found him. now i don't even know whether he's dead or alive. god, i should have looked harder, should have kept better tabs on him, should have justโ€”sorry, i. i can'tโ€”can i step out? for a second?"

    โ› tell us about your favourite memory. โœ
    "i appreciate the 180, haha. sorry about that, by the way, i just needed a moment. but favorite memory? i had a girlfriend in high school, and it was never anything really deep, but i loved her, i think, as much as any high schooler knew how to. near the end of our senior year, there was this day that we took off togetherโ€”we just walked right out of first period. neither of us could afford a car, so anywhere super far was out of the question, but we walked to the gas station down the street and bought slushees and hot dogs, and snuck into a movie, and later climbed to the roof of this one building and just watched the sunset. it was so fun, and i felt like i didn't have a single care in the world. i want to feel like that again."

    โ› where do you see yourself 10 years from now? โœ
    "a part of me wants a family, but another part of me is afraid i'll mess it up like my dad did. so i'm kinda on the fence about that, you know? for sure, i want to be well-established in my career and be someone that families, especially families from disadvantaged backgrounds, can trust their kids to. and i'd like to have a special someone in my life at that point. guy, girl, doesn't matter. as long as i love them and they love me."

    โ› describe your ideal partner. โœ
    "god, okay. i wouldn't even know, i feel like i don't know i like something until it's right in front of me. but i'll try my best. we already established gender isn't a factor. uh, i guess i'd like someone who keeps me grounded? it's easy for me to get caught upโ€”in things, people, obligations. but we should be able to have fun together. humor's important to me. i want to be able to laugh with them but, also, trust them enough to cry with them too."

    โ› what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live? โœ
    "i'd ask you out for coffee after. god, sorry, i've been on my best behavior for most of this interview, but that was bound to happen. ignore it! unless you wanna say yes, because i'm not uninterested, obviously. on a more serious note, i really would want to see my brother again. there's no closure there, and i really don't think i could die with a clear conscience unless i do something about that. but for the most part, i'd want to spend time with friends. flirt with every cute boy or girl i see and kiss as many of them as are willing. drive 90 in a 55, go sky-diving."

    โ› what inspired you to become a doctor? โœ
    "my upbringing and the kind of community i was raised in, mostly. i don't think i ever went to the doctor's while i was under my dad's care, and a bunch of the kids i grew up with were in the same boat. it really opened my eyes as to how there are whole communities out there without access to quality healthcare, and it feels like the people with the power to do something about it don't care about everyone falling through the cracks."

    [/div] [div class="tabContents tabContents05"]
    โ› where were you born? โœ
    "in a really rundown hospital maybe a twenty minute drive from where we used to live. i assume a midwife delivered me, but i don't know the details. my dad was there, i know that for sureโ€”it was before his relationship with my mom fell apart and she walked out on us."

    โ› how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically? โœ
    "i'm a lot more comfortable than i was when i was a kid, financially and just in every other aspect too, i guess. the moment i turned 18 i packed my bags and whisked me and my brother out of that damn place. i did stay in chicago for most of my lifeโ€”dallas is my first venture away from the city, actually."

    โ› what occupation did your parents have when you were born? โœ
    "i don't really know. i can't remember anything about my mom since she left just after my brother was born, when i was four, and of course my dad doesn't talk about her. as for him, if being an alcoholic were an occupation, then he should have been making six figures."

    โ› how many siblings do you have? โœ
    "just the one. giovanni, mi hermanito. we got along but duked it out a lot, as a lot of brothers do, but we never stayed mad at each other for long. then we got older and things got more complicated. well, we ran through this already, kind of, so you know the drill."

    โ› were you a good student in school? โœ
    "i wish i'd tried harder before college. i wasn't a terrible student, but i wouldn't say an amazing student either, definitely not straight As or valedictorian material. i always loved biology and english, actually, and didn't really hate anything except art. god, i'm dismal at it. i would say that i never really had a problem with being, uh, unpopular, you know?"

    โ› what kind of friends did you have? โœ
    "i was definitely somewhat of an idiot when i was younger, but thank god i had good taste in friends. they were all good people, if a little rough around the edges, but so was i. some of us fell out of contact after graduation, but i still text a lot of them semi-regularly. like mariana, my high school girlfriend? she's a physical therapist now. i'm happy she's doing so well for herself."

    โ› what was the stupidest thing you did growing up? โœ
    "so many, how do i even narrow it down? okay, so when i was maybe sixteen or seventeen, i was trying to sneak out of the apartment to meet up with ana. it was like two in the morning, and the way our apartment was laid out, i'd have to tiptoe past my dad's head, and i thought it'd be smarter to just climb out the window. we lived on the fourth floor, so it wasn't my brightest idea, and i was so loud that it woke my dad up anyway. he was so mad he just pushed me the rest of the way out. i fell and split my head open, which is where the scar comes from. needless to say, i didn't get to see ana that night."

    โ› if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be? โœ
    "i've got something that comes in second, butโ€”when i picked up the phone and it was gio's recovery center, easy. i knew it was going to be something bad, even before i picked up, because they never called me. and when they said, 'we're so sorry, mr. de la cruz, but your brother must have snuck out last night, we combed the entire facility and couldn't find him,' i swear i went so cold it was like i'd never be warm again. my grades plummeted, and i just struggled to care."

    โ› have you ever moved house, city, or country? โœ
    "i moved out of my dad's apartment and into my own at eighteen, but otherwise i stayed there for a while. like i mentioned, i never moved out of chicago until now, so dallas is my first glimpse of what the US has to offer besides smog and wind and snow."

    โ› which occupation did you want to be in growing up? โœ
    "i actually wanted to be a cop growing up, funny enough. super different from a doctor, right? but the motivations were the sameโ€”i wanted to make the world a better place. butโ€”and i don't know if this holds true for other citiesโ€”but the police department in chicago is extremely corrupt, and at the time i was growing up, there were more bad men in there than good. if you wanted to go beat up on kids, especially the ones from broken families, you joined the cpd. that was how it was. it didn't take me long to realize that being a doctor was a much better way to make a difference for the better."

    โ› are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret? โœ
    "i, uh. well, i mean, if there were anything i was keeping a secret, i'd probably not want to broadcast it in an interview? you already know a lot of the gritty details of my life, anyway."

    martรญn de la cruz / father / currently 55 years old / alive
    estranged, to say the least. lorenzo hasn't spoken to him since he moved out eight years ago, and he has no desire to rekindle that relationship. he resents him for being a shitty father, and he reserves for him a significant portion of the blame for what happened to giovanni. (the rest of the blame, he saves for himself.) he has a lot of internalized issues that stem from how his father treated him, both physically and emotionally, and he would be lying if he said the move to dallas wasn't at least partially motivated by wanting to get as far away from his dad as possible.

    giovanni de la cruz / younger brother / would be 21 years old / ???
    lorenzo was wildly devoted to him, but perhaps he didn't know how to love him the right way. the role of companion and friend was always secondary to the role of protector, and now enzo wonders whether or not that played a role in gio slipping farther and farther away from him. in the months that immediately followed the phone call, enzo couldn't so much as think about gio without wanting to cry. it's gotten better since then, but he thinks it'll always hurt, this terrible aching dullness. he hasn't heard from or about gio for about ten months now.

    mariana "ana" matilde ruelas / high school girlfriend, now close friend / currently 25 years old / alive
    the break-up was mutual and extremely pleasant, with no bad feelings on either side: just a mutual understanding that they were two people whose paths were going to diverge, and they needed to be able to grow. she was one of the best parts of his high school experience, and now she's probably his closest friend from then. they talk frequently and, before the move to dallas, frequently met up to catch up on each other's lives. back in high school, she always expressed concern for his home situation.

    tahir shalhoub / ex-boyfriend and first heartbreak / currently 27 years old / alive
    being accused of being a romantic is far from the worst (or most untrue) of accusations that have been leveled at lorenzo, but he genuinely thought that tahir might have been the one. enzo's no stranger to hook-ups or one-night stands, of course, and in fact enjoys them, but when he falls he falls hard. a committed four-year relationship stretching from the last two years of undergrad to the first two of medical school, enzo was even considering popping the question. tahir was handsome, magnetic, and ridiculously thoughtful. but when enzo popped in on him unannounced, hoping to surprise him with flowers and tickets to a movie he'd known tahir had been wanting to see, he'd caught him with another man. enzo was, understandably, devastated. while the #1 worst thing in his life he unequivocally reserves for the bad news about gio, this held the title for a long, long time.

    hesmerie glen / best friend / currently 26 years old / alive
    he met her during his first year of medical school, and they got along like a house on fire. she had the kind of blunt, sharp wit that could keep him laughing for hours on end, and she was unafraid to tell him when he was being a dumbass, which he values endlessly. she's the only one he's told about tahir's unfaithfulnessโ€”he lets everyone else draw their own conclusions about the abrupt end to a seemingly perfect coupleโ€”and the same day he uncovered the truth, she all but knocked down his door with ice cream and a list of things she "hated about tahir anyway." he wonders how he would have climbed back out had it not been for her. although he's still hesitant about entering a relationship again, she's coaxed him onto a couple of dates. he still calls her every day.

    [div class=box]โ†’ what brings you to forest park medical center?
    โ€œmy feet and my degree obviously. iโ€™ve done a lot of research on many of texasโ€™s and other states hospitals , and found this one to match my interests best. iโ€™m very lucky to be picked among iโ€™m sure , dozens of others.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency?[/div] โ€œa job , those debts have to get paid off somehow. but , also a memorable experience to set me up for my pathway of being an orthopedic surgeon.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what is the most important aspect of patient care?[/div] โ€œensuring that theyโ€™re comfortable , and feel safe. a certain level of trust is to be established between a doctor , and their patient , otherwise you both canโ€™t work together to solve their issue โ€” without this trust , it can make the overall experience, negative.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what is one fear you've overcome in the last year?[/div] โ€œroller coasters! now i can ride them like a champ.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what is your biggest regret?[/div] โ€œeven though iโ€™m thankful for how far iโ€™ve gotten, thereโ€™s always this nagging feeling in the back of mind that asks if this is truly what i want to do, and yeah i do want to be here , but i just wonder if this path is truly for me. joining the medical field was both the best and worst thing iโ€™ve done, haha.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what is your greatest mistake?[/div] โ€œnot keeping in touch with a friend. iโ€™d been caught up with school and exams, and neglected them for awhile, unaware of their declining health, and later learned they died unexpectedly.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ tell us about your favorite memory.[/div] โ€œfor a great deal of my life, iโ€™ve lived mostly on the east coast in the cities where the apartments are wall to wall, and very small. my mom took me to the state beach during the summer, and i just remember the clear blue skies, the sand between my toes, and the smell of the ocean. it was the largest open outdoor space iโ€™d seen, and the beach just seemed so vast, like it went on forever.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ where do you see yourself 10 years from now? [/div] โ€œhopefully still alive at that point , if earth doesnโ€™t kill us all. in those years i want to live comfortably and have some form of success, especially if iโ€™ve made it this far.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ describe your ideal partner. [/div] โ€œsomebody open-minded and kind. oh! and also willing to accept all of the obnoxious love , i have for them. as long as you arenโ€™t the grinch , youโ€™re practically everything iโ€™ve dreamed for.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live? [/div] โ€œiโ€™d say something like โ€˜travel to a new countryโ€™ or โ€˜try skydiving,โ€™ but i donโ€™t have the funds for it , soo iโ€™d spend those days doing what i love and surrounding myself with the people i love. cheesy, i know, but in those final moments , doing what you feel is most important seems like the best choice.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what inspired you to become a doctor?[/div] โ€œaside from the obvious , โ€˜i love to help people,โ€™ i wanted to make a difference in this field and show that itโ€™s possible to become a doctor , even when you look like me.โ€[/div][/div][/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentBackstory" style="display: none;"][div class=outline]
    [div class=box]โ†’ where were you born? โฌ in a hospital, a home, elsewhere? who delivered you; a midwife, a doctor, a relative? were there any complications? did your mother survive? who was present to witness the birth? โญ
    โ€œborn nโ€™ raised in the city of deep dish pizza aka chicago, illinois , my ma said she was waddling around the hospital on the due date of my birth as suggested by the doctor to help induce labor , and while walking , i happened to make my grand appearance right there in the hospital hallway . funny right? fortunately , they were able to move my mom to a room to give birth in and i was successfully delivered with little complications by the doctor , but my father ended up missing out on the birth.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically? โฌ in other words, has your family gained or lost a fortune? has someone close to you died? have you moved house? โญ [/div] โ€œmy parentโ€™s journey to america practically took their every penny , and for awhile they struggled to uphold themselves in americaโ€™s economy โ€” especially since they were undocumented. jobs were never hard to find , but never paid enough to sustain a family , so i lived a majority of my life in a small cramped apartment. my parents feared they would one day be found out as undocumented , so we didnโ€™t move much at all. they found unfamiliar territory scary , and found it hard to trust anywhere , therefore we stayed where it was deemed โ€˜safe.โ€™โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what occupation did your parents have when you were born? โฌ did it ever change as you grew older? has this influenced you in any way? โญ[/div] โ€œthey both had many jobs while in america , although my pa worked the most in comparison to my mom. when i was born , my mom worked as a maid , but had to quit because of me , while my father worked as a taxi driver and a janitor. truthfully , it was heartbreaking to see your parents struggle day-to-day to put food on the table , or watching one of them go hungry because of you. iโ€™m very thankful for all theyโ€™ve done for as it made me realize i donโ€™t want to live the lives they lived.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ how many siblings do you have? โฌ do you get along or fight often? if so, what about? which sibling are you closest to, and why? โญ[/div] โ€œunfortunately, i grew up an only child. iโ€™m sure money problems may have been the reasoning behind it or my parents just didnโ€™t want any more children , because iโ€™m just that great haha.โ€ [/

    [div class=box]โ†’ were you a good student in school? โฌ what was your favourite subject? did they face any kind of bullying or abuse? how has this altered you? does this still affect you today, and how? โญ[/div] โ€œi was an exceptional student , and a giant ass kisser for all of my school life , even in college. if i remember correctly, algebra had to be my favorite subject , solving those equations was very satisfying. i did get bullied a lot , because of the way i looked , the way i smelled , my parents , the food iโ€™d bring for lunch , everything , and i never understood why. their bullying made me wish i wasnโ€™t who i am, and for awhile i shunned my indian heritage to be something they would like , that society would like , to just not be different , but now i know better and i was always unapologetically be me , no matter.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what kind of friends did you have? โฌ were they a "good" or "bad" influence? how did they change you? how long did you remain friends? โญ[/div] โ€œi bonded with the nerdy kids or the teacherโ€™s pet , and tried my hardest to stray from trouble. i knew itโ€™d be easier on my parents to be the good kid they wanted me to be , so thatโ€™s what i was. most of the friendship i made were short-lived, and only lasted temporarily, despite how close i was with some of them , but little to none of those friendships lasted out of high school.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ what was the stupidest thing you did growing up? โฌ did you break any laws, pull a prank, disappoint a parent? โญ[/div] โ€œnot exactly my proudest moment, or the craziest thing you may have heard. but , during indoor recess time sometime in the 5th grade, i decided to stick a pair of scissors in the outlet and caused the entire block to have a blackout. like i said , not my proudest moment.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be? โฌ how has that changed you as a person? how has it changed how you see the world, themselves, and others? โญ[/div] โ€œdefinitely hearing about the loss of my friend โ€” it was the first time iโ€™d dealt with the death of anyone close to me , and it hit me very hard. the guilt ate me alive , and still does to this day. i barely ate , and struggled to find the energy to study for my exams , but kept at it because i know they wouldโ€™ve never approved of me throwing my education in the garbage for them. their death awoke something inside of me , and made me realize just how short life is , and that each and every one of us will reach our end one day. it made me cherish all the people i talk to , and learn not to take anyone for granted , because you never know if one day theyโ€™ll still be there , and thatโ€™s terrifying to me , but very much the truth.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ have you ever moved house, city, or country? โฌ what led to this change? which place do you considering your "home"? do you view this move or its cause with bitterness, hope, something else? โญ[/div] โ€œweโ€™ve only moved once, which was to a bigger apartment for obvious reasons , but i still considered the other apartment as home because i spent a great majority of my life there , and getting that apartment was a huge milestone for my parents, but i in no way feel bitter about the move. change is great, especially since i got my own room. however , iโ€™ve left my parents in chicago for my career, which makes me sad , because i miss them everyday despite talking to them all the time, but this move is necessary for my future.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ which occupation did you want to be in growing up? โฌ is this the same as what you wish to be, or are in, now? what inspired you to want this career? what led you onto the path to becoming a doctor? โญ[/div] โ€œi wanted to be an artist , as silly as it sounds, but itโ€™s almost impossible to make a living out of something like that. my parents never approved of my dream either , claiming iโ€™d go nowhere in a career path like that , immediately crushing my dreams , therefore they pushed me to become something important , that theyโ€™d be proud of , because apparently their son being an artist was a disgrace.โ€

    [div class=box]โ†’ are there any aspects of your past that you keep a secret? โฌ why? or are you open about your past? โญ[/div] โ€œi have nothing to hide of my past , because of how simple it is. i donโ€™t mind talking about myself , or my past , but iโ€™m not as open to talk about my deceased friend โ€” itโ€™s a heavy topic , and not the best for conversation.โ€ [/div][/div][/div] [div class="tabsContent tabsContentRelations" style="display: none;"][div class=outline]

    [div class=paragraph][div class=box]ARYAN KOTECHA ;; FATHER ;; CLOSE[/div]
    although his father was never around as much as sahil wished due to long work hours during his childhood , he maintains a relatively close bond with him and admires how hard-working he is.

    far closer with his mother than his father , sahil was around his mom more often than not growing up and turned into quite the mama's boy. he loves her dearly , and wouldn't trade her for the world. he's glad he can come to her for any issue he has, and that she somehow always has the answer to it, even if it's not what he wants to hear.

    they've found kindred spirits in each other โ€” meeting during orientation for college , the pair instantly connected and fell into each other's orbit.

    their parents knew each other from work , and later connected the two due to similarity in age when sahil was 10. they immediately hit it off , and bonded . in fact sahil was callista's prom date , after a jokingly made promise turned serious; claiming that if neither of them had a date , they'd go together. presently , the two have drifted apart since sahil's departure to dallas , and haven't spoken in a year or so.

    within the first year of college , he'd fallen into bed with her on numerous occasions , each ending with a promise of it being the last time until the lines began to blur and it seemed more like a relationship. but , sahil was never the best with relationships , inexperience his enemy , and like most college relationship it was to end eventually. yet he never expected it to hurt so much when it did. when he left from chicago , he hadn't uttered a word to her , and these days she texts him wondering about him , but he never responds, too focused on his future , to worry about a relationship in the past.

    [div class=tag]health

    [div class=tag]physical ailments
    Currently in relatively healthy condition.
    [div class=tag]mental ailments
    She suffers from generalized anxiety disorder and ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), which is managed with medication and counselling. Although she makes no effort to hide these disorders, accepting them as part of her life, sheโ€™s visibly uncomfortable with discussing the topic of her mental health with all but the closest of associates. She's also a survivor of an undiagnosed eating disorder.
    [div class=tag]emotional stability[/div] On the outside, Gemma is the girl thatโ€™s put together, confident and infallible. Nothing seems to rattle her; not the prospect of winging an exam, incorrectly answering a question in a lecture of 200+ people or even jumping from 2,000 feet in the sky. Sheโ€™s bold and outspoken, not afraid to make herself heard. Simply put, everything seems to roll off her shoulders. Internally, Gemma is far from the daring, assertive image she projects. Self-doubt and second guesses constantly plague her mind -- sheโ€™s just too stubborn to let them win her over. However, while she may seem to be crass and carefree, Gemma takes her work very seriously. No detail is left mentally unassessed, as patient safety always comes first. While sheโ€™s proud by nature, medicine is not a profession you go into with an ego the size of a Hollywood mansion. So, when it comes to taking care of her patients, she asks an endless torrent of questions. Learning to voice every doubt or uncertainty has not been an easy task, but she pushes forward. After all, she owes it to her patients to become the best doctor she can possibly be.
    [div class=tag]allergies[/div] Mild allergy to grass and pollen.
    [div class=tag]sleeping habits[/div] Gemmaโ€™s a night owl, preferring to study, socialize, read or just chill late into the night. Even as a child, she never feared the dark. Instead, she viewed it as a blanket of security for the way it seemed to bring a stop to the monotony of regular duties and activities. With that being said, Gemma is biologically a short-sleeper. Going to sleep at around midnight and waking up at five in the morning, as per her usual routine, never results in sluggishness or fatigue. Her father was the same way and the two would spend time, chatting or working, while the rest of the world stilled around them.
    [div class=tag]eating habits[/div] Sheโ€™s not a very picky eater and will consume just about anything thatโ€™s edible. Which is very fortunate, considering Gemmaโ€™s cooking abilities are virtually nonexistent. To her, โ€œcookingโ€ involves throwing some meat in the oven for a simple โ€œroastโ€ and boiling some vegetables at the side. Add some random sauce/flavoring and thatโ€™s what she calls a decent meal. Nevertheless, she makes an effort to eat a healthy, colourful palette and restrict her snacking habits, allowing herself to indulge in a small treat every week but no more.
    [div class=tag]exercise habits[/div] Part of managing her anxiety and ADHD involves a very strict workout regimen. Endurance sports, such as swimming, running and biking, are her preferred outlets for stress and nerves. Although, she does enjoy a good game of badminton and table tennis every now and then.
    [div class=tag]blood type[/div] A-
    [div class=tag]addictions[/div] Reads a little too many romance novels and watches a generous amount of Netflix.
    [div class=tag]drugs[/div] Unless you count her anxiety medication, no.
    [div class=tag]alcohol[/div] She rarely drinks alcohol, as it is ill-advised to do so on anxiety medication. The only times sheโ€™s ever caved were at social gatherings, where she felt awkward not taking a couple of sips after a toast or two.
    [div class=tag]smoking[/div] No.

    [div class=tag]the interview

    [div class=tag]what brings you to forest park medical center?
    โ€œAside from the fact that itโ€™s an excellent teaching hospital...well, Iโ€™ve never been outside the state of California since Iโ€™ve immigrated to the U.S. This is the furthest Iโ€™ve ever travelled by myself! Itโ€™s quite daunting, to be honest. The possibility of doing residency, and eventually practicing, outside of my home state was a challenge I couldnโ€™t resist. Iโ€™m constantly trying to better myself; Iโ€™ve already taken a tentative step outside of my comfort zone. If Iโ€™m given the opportunity to challenge myself even further, you can be damn sure Iโ€™ll face it head on. Sorry, excuse my language there.โ€
    [div class=tag]what do you plan to achieve at the end of your residency?
    โ€œIโ€™m actually not 100% sure what I want to do after this general surgery residency. Iโ€™ve considered specializing in plastic or orthopedic surgery, mostly because I find beauty in helping someone gain or regain confidence in their appearance. I think plastic surgeons get an undeserved bad reputation. Plastic surgery isnโ€™t necessarily about doing botox for rich Beverly Hills housewives; it can also be fixing a cleft palate for the kid that was born in a third world country. It can be about grafting skin for the house fire victim. Removing a port-wine stain from the teenager thatโ€™s been bearing the weight of stares and judgement for his/her whole life. Beauty isnโ€™t everything, but giving the gift of beauty is beautiful. If I end up specializing in plastic surgery, I want to help people understand this and overcome the stigma surrounding the field.โ€
    [div class=tag]what is the most important aspect of patient care?[/div] โ€œThatโ€™s a pretty loaded question! To be quite honest, I think a lot of healthcare professionals seem to forget about how equally important the โ€œcareโ€ aspect of their job is. Medical school does a good job of getting the fundamental science knowledge down, but I think patient communication is key. You come up with a diagnosis after a patient consultation and running all necessary testing procedures. Great. Now, how do you explain the prognosis of diagnosed condition in the most simplistic, least intimidating way? How do you put a patient at ease if theyโ€™ve got illness anxiety? Professionalism cannot be disregarded, of course, but a little empathy goes a long way.โ€
    [div class=tag]what is one fear you've overcome in the last year?[/div] โ€œMy fear of driving. Growing up in a large city like Los Angeles, I could easily get away with not owning a car of my own. I took the bus during high school and lived on campus during my undergrad and medical school years. Part of the reason was admittedly cultural; my mother doesnโ€™t drive either and she didnโ€™t trust me to start driving at the legal age. Her doubt slowly became my own. When I realized I could be facing the possibility of no longer living in such a big metropolitan area, where I could weasel out of the idea of driving by ordering a Lyft or Uber, I signed up for driving lessons. It was a little embarrassing taking classes with 16 year olds, but sometimes youโ€™ve just got to say โ€˜screw itโ€™ and start learning. Even if itโ€™s at the expense of your pride.โ€
    [div class=tag]what is your biggest regret?[/div] โ€œMy parents separated when I was 12. Weโ€™d immigrated to America in the year prior and it was a hard adjustment. Before we left China, my mother had promised my dad would be right behind us. Looking back, I think it was a lie she told both for her benefit and my own. Their relationship had been strained for the better half my life and divorce was probably the healthiest option. Still, itโ€™s never easy to admit your marriage and family is falling apart. Maybe she was trying to convince herself as much as she was trying to convince me. Nevertheless, when my parents divorced, some part of my younger self blamed my mother. I was close with my father and still am, albeit to a lesser extent now. It was easier to blame her rather than blaming the person that let me come to his meetings on his lap and snuck us out to get ice cream at midnight. So, I isolated myself from her. I was approaching my teen years, in a new country and lacking a parental figure. I tried running away from home one time. She called the police and they found me huddled on a park bench a few hours later. I can still remember the way she looked at me: with so much disappointment and heartbreak. I instantly felt guilty. We never spoke of the incident again, but I think thatโ€™s when I realized how irrational I was being. It takes two to tango, after all.โ€
    [div class=tag]what is your greatest mistake?[/div] โ€œI struggled with body dysmorphia throughout my teenage years. I was never formally diagnosed, but it resulted in a very unhealthy relationship with food. I would eat, immediately feel guilty and start exercising or taking laxatives without my mother noticing. I was always very careful not to let her catch on to my activities. In retrospect, I should have gotten help a lot sooner than I did. I was 18 when I first sat down in my first session with a therapist. I have since recovered and maintain a much healthier relationship with food, but getting help a lot sooner could have helped me avoid a lot of the health detriments I suffered, like bad dental and bone health due to malnourishment.โ€
    [div class=tag]tell us about your favourite memory/[/div] โ€œAt night, me and my father would stay up together. Heโ€™d be in his office, typing away at some work presentation or report, and Iโ€™d be in his office, reading a book or doodling. My mom would usually come out to scold me for being up past my bedtime and him for letting me stay up. I have some fond memories of us sneaking out to eat ramen, or some other unhealthy snacks, after midnight.โ€
    [div class=tag]where do you see yourself 10 years from now?[/div] โ€œHopefully career-wise, Iโ€™ll be a successfully licensed plastic or orthopedic surgeon. Maybe own a private practice. In my personal life, I hope to pursue a lot of other hobbies and interests. Itโ€™s always been a goal of mine to write a book, so becoming a published author would also be something Iโ€™d strive for. Above all else, I want to be in a good place mentally. Iโ€™d want to be content with how Iโ€™ve spent my 10 years.โ€
    [div class=tag]describe your ideal partner.[/div] โ€œSomeone who can challenge themselves and is not afraid to challenge me. Someone who isnโ€™t afraid of making a fool of themselves in the pursuit of betterment. Someone whoโ€™s equally driven and can match my ambition, so we can compete against each other mercilessly. On a serious note, Iโ€™d like someone who has the courage to admit when theyโ€™re vulnerable and ask for help when they need it.โ€
    [div class=tag]what would you do if you found out you had a week left to live?[/div] โ€œI feel like Iโ€™d be too depressed to properly enjoy anything but sleep. So, probably that. Eatingโ€™s good, too. Iโ€™d go all out with 12 course meals at the most expensive restaurant I can find. Maybe a bit of crying if Iโ€™m honest. Iโ€™d definitely dedicate some time to one moviethon at least.โ€
    [div class=tag]what inspired you to become a doctor?[/div] โ€œThere was never a single big, dramatic moment that made me realize medicine was my true calling. It was more of a subtle, quiet process. When I sat down to figure out what I wanted to do with my life near the end of junior high, I realized my ultimate goal was to help people. Improve the world through interpersonal connection. I briefly considered being a counsellor or therapist before realizing I had a knack for science and math subjects, which would translate nicely to a career in medicine along with my people skills. After that, I shadowed some physicians in the city and found it to be a pretty cool job.โ€
    [/div]
    [/div][/div][/div] [div class="tabContents tabContents04"]
    [div class=tag]the backstory and the relationships

    [div class=tag]where were you born?
    โ€œI was born in Shanghai, China. At one of the local city hospitals, Iโ€™m not quite sure which one. A doctor delivered me without complications. My father was there to witness the successful birth.โ€
    [div class=tag] how has your living situation changed from when you were born economically, socially, and geographically?
    โ€œI was born into a fairly wealthy family in China. My father was a self-made business man and my motherโ€™s from old money. When I was 11, me and my mother moved to Los Angeles. My parents got divorced a year later. The divorce arrangements permitted me to see my father every summer break until I was a legal adult and could make my own flight arrangements. Through my motherโ€™s assets and her divorce settlements meant money was never a problem, even after my parents separated.โ€
    [div class=tag]what occupation did your parents have when you were born?[/div] โ€œMy dadโ€™s a businessman. He started his own biotechnology company not long after I was born. My mother was an heiress and socialite who never worked a day in her life before immigrating here. As I stated before, money was never a problem, so it wasnโ€™t really about getting a job to support us in America. It was more so the fact that she needed to figure out how to cook, clean and do basic household chores that maids usually took care of. My motherโ€™s grown a lot though. Currently, she works as a fashion designer for a minor label. My fatherโ€™s love of science did influence me in my decision to major in biochemistry in undergrad, to an extent.โ€
    [div class=tag]how many siblings do you have? [/div] โ€œSorry to disappoint. Iโ€™m an only child. My mom never remarried and I donโ€™t think she has plans to. My father got married last year and I was invited to his wedding. His new bride has an 8 year old son from an earlier marriage, but I only saw him briefly. He seems pretty nice.โ€
    [div class=tag]were you a good student in school?[/div] โ€œWas I a good student? Probably not. My study habits were horrible in high school and it wasnโ€™t until sophomore year of my undergrad did I figure out a method that works for me. Luckily, I made up for it with a good memory and effective cramming skills. Miraculously, these shortcomings never really affected my grades as much as they should have. I maintained an overall GPA of 3.8 in my undergrad years, which is probably subpar compared to most medical school students, but Iโ€™m proud nonetheless. While I enjoyed sciences like biology and chemistry, my favourite subject was actually music. I was also the kid that was friends with everybody, so I never faced any discrimination or bullying. I have stood up to a couple of bullies before though.โ€
    [div class=tag]what kind of friends did you have? [/div] โ€œI had a lot of good friends growing up. For the most part, they were like me: extroverted, bold and not afraid to make themselves heard. Iโ€™ll admit, we did have a bit of a rebellious streak going, especially in high school. Iโ€™ve been to a few house parties where the police have shown up, but that was mostly due to the noise. I rarely drank and was almost always the designated 'somber friend' or the group, but that didnโ€™t mean I wasnโ€™t having a good time mingling and dancing. I still keep in touch with some -- like, Sophie and Eva -- but we've drifted apart.โ€
    [div class=tag]what was the stupidest thing you did growing up? [/div] โ€œRunning away from home, as I mentioned before.โ€
    [div class=tag]if you could name the worst moment of your life, what would it be? [/div] "That would be a close tie between finding out we were leaving China (when I was 11) and finding out my parents were getting divorced a year after. My pre-teen years were rough, but I've grown and matured because of them. I'm still dealing with some issues related to trust/love and don't think I'm ready for a fully committed relationship yet, but it's about baby steps."
    [div class=tag]have you ever moved house, city, or country?[/div] "I moved from a high-rise condo in Shanghai in an upperclass neighborhood to a two-story house in Los Angeles as a child. It's definitely given me a more worldly outlook, as is the benefit of experiencing two cultures."
    [div class=tag]which occupation did you want to be in growing up?[/div] "I wanted to become a novelist."
    [div class=tag]are there any aspects of your past that you keep secret?[/div] "Not really. I don't try to hide anything, but there are topics I avoid talking about unless prompted to -- such as, my mental health and my parents divorce. Otherwise, I'm pretty much an open book."
