Oh well hey there,
So as you may have assumed...I've returned from England and have been working my little butt off at Georgia Tech for the rest of the summer (at CEISMC...the Center for Education Integrating Science, Math and Technology) and it was a great experience and I got to know some really awesome people! Now I'm just taking classes at Tech and the semester is about halfway over. It's been really different adjusting to life back in the United States because I feel like I've been so busy all the time! I've been getting really involved on campus and trying to balance that with working two jobs and school has been different from being able to escape every other weekend. Fortunately, my travelling/community service bug has been heard and I've been accepted to go on a trip with the Foundation for the International Medical Relief of Children! This coming spring break I will be going to Costa Rica to work in one of FIMRC's clinics. I am very excited to able to go, this past semester I have taken a history of medicine course and it has been the most fascinating thing I have learned about in college so far. However, it also has shined a light on how sparse modern medical care can be and how modern medicine isn't really something we've had for very long. It makes you feel grateful to have all these vaccinations and antibiotics that cure us of diseases that would take out thousands of people. Anyway, I'm going to try and keep up with this blog since I feel like the rest of this year is going to be quite the adventure!
