Ever since beginning the dental admissions process, I have been having trouble reading for fun; everything I read has to expand my knowledge of a particular topic, whether it be the social sciences, history, or pop culture.
Take for example Howard Miller's St. Leibowitz and the Wild Horsewoman. Howard Miller is one of the first great science fiction writers. His seminal and only major work, A Canticle for Leibowit,z is considered the paradigm for all science fiction that followed. I recently began his second novel, St. Leibowitz and the Wild Horsewoman, and found myself having trouble consistently reading it. I did not realize the what my problem was until my girlfriend brought up that her reading tastes have recently shifted from fiction to non-fiction. I, too, have realized this trend with my own tastes.
At least for the foreseeable future, it appears this will be an ongoing trend for me. And I do not mind it one bit.
The purpose of this blog is to write about my preparation for dental school and some thoughts on the dental world in general. Undoubtedly, some random, completely unrelated things will be written here, but dentistry will always be the focus.
