"...the smiles that you see on the faces of each person in the community is worth more than what i have sacrificed for..."
Problem based learning.. self directed learning.. learning issues..OSCE.. VOSCE.. community exposure..

| We exist not for OURSELVES but for GOD and OTHERS. - Definitely YES! |
These are the things that describe Ateneo de Zamboanga University School of Medicine, a unique school that engages its students to the real world, the real experience that each of us will face in the future to become a better doctor.
Among the things mentioned, the Community Exposure is both the fun and the exhausting part of the curriculum. Each student like me, learns a thing or two in the community. I learned how to sacrifice my comfort zones like TV, internet, cellphone and most especially, my bed!
You ought to do your own laundry and deal with all the insects around.
But the smiles that you see on the faces of each person in the community is worth more than what i have sacrificed for.
The tears they have shed for us when we told them that it was time for us to go back to Zamboanga even though they know that we will come back soon, are heart breaking and priceless. The residents of Denoman is our second family, our second home. Me and my groupmates are very glad because they accepted us immediately without hesitation.
