Hello to all the followers! I hope your semesters have started out well and that you were studying hard (I know we are here at CUCPHS!). My name is Desirae (call me Des!) and I am a P2! I originally grew up in Chapel Hill, but decided black and orange was more so my colors, so I came to Buies Creek 3 short years ago and have loved every minute of it! I was accepted into pharmacy school after two years of undergraduate work, so work hard and anything is possible!
I wanted to tell you all a little about a get-together that I helped to organize as a member of CPFI (Christian Pharmacists Fellowship International). We are a Christ-focused group that meets every week for a time of fellowship and digging into the Gospel to help us grow spiritually as Christian pharmacists. My role in this organization is the Social Chair, and to kick the year off right we held the first ever CPFI Bonfire! This was a wonderful time of fellowship, fun, laughter, and a time to get together away from Maddox Hall. The fire was gigantic and provided a great atmosphere for none other than..s’mores! As a tribute to our P3s who had just completed their Top 300 drug examination, we ceremoniously burned old drug cards! It was a great time for all and will definitely be an annual thing, so we hope to see you all there in the coming years! I hope you all have a wonderful semester and I can’t wait to see some of you all at PharmDays and hopefully interviews!
~Des
