Well, it is my birthday again.
I seemed to have been updating my blog relentlessly every year on this day.
A lot has happened since my last blog. I had completed my graduate studies and obtained a master degree in biotechnology last September. Currently, I am enrolled to a doctorate program. My reason to take the research path seriously is to contribute to the society to help eradicate organ transplantation altogether. I have been doing research on stem cells, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The little works I do, may in any ways help scientists elucidate ways for the possibilities of autologous treatments. It may seem ambitious, but my sickness, sufferings and transplantation have changed my life's trajectory. A brave donor's sacrifice saved my life and here I am living a normal life again. It is only wise to return the kindness by helping other patients; thus conducting research on tissue engineering sounded appropriate. I have started my doctorate course with so much enthusiast and I hope that it continues and I can get viable results for possible publications.
As contented I am with my current life's path, I often feel some emptiness in life and that feeling has amplified specifically today. As I recalled the happenings in my life, I remembered my last birthday. I was on cloud nine, grinning continuously because of my pregnancy. It seemed like a dream now and for some reasons this year's birthday just felt like another day. I would have been so much happier if only I have my baby girl in my arms now.
Well, here's hoping for a better year ahead.
