I've neglected my blog over the summer for a number for reasons. I have summer school, been busy hanging out and catching up with friends and family, other responsibilities, and I just haven't felt like it.
Summer has been going well so far. I just finished one session of summer school and will start another one tomorrow. Class hasn't even started yet, and I already have homework. I hate epidemiology already. Everyone keeps asking me what epidemiology is, and I don't really know how to explain it. According to Wikipedia, "Epidemiology is the study of factors affecting the health and illness of populations, and serves as the foundation and logic of interventions made in the interest of public health and preventative medicine. It is considered a cornerstone methodology of public health research, and is highly regarded in evidence-based medicine for identifying risk factors for disease and determining optimal treatment approaches to clinical practice." So there. I have five wonderful weeks of learning about that.
There is approximately two more months of summer vacation left. I must make the most out of it.
