School’s out for the summer (let’s just ignore the fact that this is the last official summer of my life, and I’ll be spending it in the Southern Hemisphere, where it’s technically winter)!!!!!!!! I haven’t updated on here in an extremely long time, I realize. That will soon change, I promise….because my life is once again going to be interesting and not simply the sagas of a med student in central PA! Tonight, I’m heading out to Brazil to begin my work in a favela in Rio. Summer schedule:

May 14-May15: Philly (home!)
May 15-June 8: Rio de Janeiro (research)
June 9-June 12: Washington, D.C. (AMSA Global Health Action Committee Board Meeting! www.amsa.org/global)
June 13-July 1: Rio de Janeiro (research)
July 2-July 4: NYC (visiting fun people)
July 5/6-Aug 12: South Africa (volunteering?)
Aug. 13: Philadelphia (home!)
Aug 14: Hershey
Aug 15: Beginning of second year

Ok, back to packing and the usual (much missed) frenzy of preparing to leave…. talk to you next from Rio de Janeiro! :)

Beijos!
