I try to pamper myself as often as possible because I mean come on, one can only take the stress of med school for so long.
Taking some time out to give myself facials, manis and pedis etc. are very crucial. It is a great relaxing tool especially after long, long days at school and especially after a long week filled with quizzes, exams, and projects.
I'm no expert by any means because sometimes my manicures look like crap but hey what can you do?
How amazing does that blue look on my feet though? Comment and let me know what you like to do to relax, and what colors you like.
One of the greatest gift to being in school in the Caribbean is the the opportunity to visit other Caribbean islands. In life, we meet and get to know people who expose us to many great things and I must say I have made some amazing local friends who make this experience the more exciting and worthwhile.
I got the chance to visit the world famous St. Bart's a few weeks ago and it definitely lived up to its name and fame.
It is about a 30 to 40 minute boat ride from St. Maarten. They have a public ferry boat that goes between these two islands every 20 minutes I believe they said but of course my friends and I had the privilege of going on a private (its nice to know people).
We first pulled up to the famous
Colombier beach and hung out for a bit. Snorkeled, swam, and just goofed around until we got hungry.
We then had lunch at
La Plage Restaurant at Tom Beach Hotel and O.M.G. it was amazing.
We had a blast, played music for the whole beach from the boat, and truly enjoyed ourselves.

It's safe to say our day trip to St. Barth was successful and beyond amazing! But seriously the overworked and overtired med student in me fell asleep and got the worse tan on my back smh!
