Histology, Biochemistry, and General Anatomy began at TUSPM (Temple University School of Podiatnc MedMne) m 2001. TUSPM has given agony to struggle and it has also provided with the motivation for dreaming a future doctor Even though there were not many things for the classes and the TUSPM events in my memories, one of the most inspiring things is what I have put my effort in studying and maintaining the school days well As a foreign medical student, at the first time ot the TUSPM curriculum, the basic thing to recover was the communication with classmates and instructors 3S well as the courses ot the classes sn English. It was more difficult for me that my attitude had been shrunken to approach the guys, because my personality and nature are a sort of naive and hesitating for everything However, my classmates and Jefferson mannuti, my big brother in the sitting helped me study and open my mind to make company with other guys. The school life m TUSPM taught me two big things, which are the challenging whatever I want to do. and the Foot and Ankle As l was more scared to do whatever l thought of as the hard job. nothing l can do to accomplish is left But the challenging attitude to do n can be even the half of the success I realized from the school lives that the hesitation to do anything is a 'faili e to start rt. I have a bigger merit to focus more on the Foot and Ankle, our primary issue than the other medical students. which are based on D.O. and M.D. The year 2005 win be a starling point for another world as well as an ending one lor TUSPM to me I wish to thank to Andrew Boyd, who was a TUSPM student between 2001 and 2003 and dedicated to my school life so much, and fti Na. my wile and Byounghoon. my lovely son kwangsu kim, DPM Michael Grzegorz krynski, DPM CXS3C5V2 Austin College BA Biology Mom and Dad: Without you.
