MAGNIFICENTLY MCKINNLEY: Blog #5 Hello my lovely friends and Welcome back to my blog! ☺ I am so excited to write to you all again and I hope that you all are having a wonderful week and are ready to read! Today, we are discussing my dreams, my goals, my ambitions, my bucket lists, or whatever you else you want to call it! I am so excited to share this because it was something that was requested by you guys !  I don't a set list of all the things I want to accomplish in this lifetime because honestly there are far to many! I have so many dreams I want to achieve, and I hope, God willing, that I will have enough time on this earth to achieve them all. I don't really write down these goals, which I probably should, I just kind of think of them and remember them.  So this is going to be more of a list blog today, because I don't know how else to format them, but I will go into a little detail about each on why I want to do these things. They are kind of all over th

MY BIGGEST FEARS!!

MAGNIFICENTLY MCKINNLEY: Blog #4 Hello All & Welcome back to the blog ! I realize I haven't been posing as much as I would like to but I have just started my rotations (in general surgery!) for PA school and it has all been a bit overwhelming, to say the least. I just wanted to say that I have received sooo much positive feedback in response to my blog, even though I have barely posted! I am so so thankful for my readers and am amazed that you all enjoy it so much! I love to relate to you all and share my experiences with you, so I am so glad that you all love it too! I am going to try to be a more dedicated blogger, time permitting, and post at least once a day to the Instagram blog, and hopefully do full blog posts here at least every other day! I want to keep relating to you all and helping you all out, so to do that I definitely have to post more! Also, I would love to know what you guys would like to hear from me; help give me some ideas on what to talk about

I GRADUATED!! (And then some..)

MAGNIFICENTLY MCKINNLEY: Blog #3 Hello All ! Welcome back to your favorite blog , Magnificently McKinnley; with your favorite blogger, ME! I realize that I have not posted a blog in the past two days, because things have gotten a tad bit busy. So I apologize for not posting sooner, but not to worry because I'm back NOW! Today we are discussing some pretty big things, including the fact that I GRADUATED!! (hence why I haven't blogged in a bit) But yes, I did it, I got my Bachelor's degree ! It took a lot of hard work and a lot of dedication, but I am so thankful I was able to do it. Now, my story/journey to my Bachelor's degree is probably unlike any you've ever heard before, I finished my Bachelor's in 2 and 1/2 years! It's a little bit crazy , but also so totally amazing . So let's DIVE IN! Okay, to start things off, I'm going to go into a little bit of background history on how I got to where I am today. I was only able to graduat

MAGNIFICENTLY MCKINNLEY: Blog #2 Hello and Good Afternoon to all my magnificent people! This month is Mental Health Awareness Month , so we are here to be healthy, happy, and show each and every person in this world love. Today we’re discussing some Body Positivity , and honestly just Positivity in general! I don’t know about y’all but one of the biggest things I struggle with is learning how to TRULY accept me for me. And I know you’re thinking, “Here we go again, another body positive post” with maybe a slight eye roll. But I’m here to tell you all that this one is different !!  First of all, when I discuss Body Positivity , I’m not just talking about loving your curves, I’m talking about loving your ENTIRE body: mind, body and soul . All of the components that make you you! Yes, loving your curves and every inch of your body is so so important, but so is loving every inch of your mind , your soul , and all of the core things that make you into who you are. I don

MAGNIFICENTLY MCKINNLEY: BLOG #1              Hello & Welcome to my blog! I am beyond excited to start this blog and share my thoughts, ideas, advice, tips, tricks and so many more other things with all of you! I have certainly been contemplating starting this blog for a very, very long time; but now, after finishing my didactic year of PA school and finally having some time to myself, I'm certain that this is the right time to do it!  ↳ For starters:  I am going to start things off with a little "get to know me" , but I'm going to try to do it in a different way than I normally would. This year I went on a service trip during my spring break week and during that week we participated in an activity that I found very challenging: Learning how to introduce yourself to others WITHOUT stating your career/field of study as the first thing about yourself; other than your name of course. I for one, found this pretty difficult due to the fact that I normally
