Restlessness

A feeling of restlessness hit me while studying and now I feel extremely distracted. My brain is currently being filled with non-study related stuff and bugging me a lot, so hence this blog. When random ideas hit me, I never seem to know what to do with them. There seems to be no outlet for my crazy ideas, so they get bottled up and build up pressure. But honestly, what do you do when you get only fragments of ideas and no way to carry any of them out?

For instance, the idea of green (or more environmentally friendly) dentistry/medicine always bounces around in my head, but I have no idea of what to do with the idea or even how to approach it. What I mean by this is that I always notice how wasteful medicine can be (think of all those needles that get thrown out each time someone gets a shot... now I know that they're thrown out for contamination purposes, but all that material adds up and builds in a landfill somewhere...) and it bothers me. Especially as a first year student, I noticed that dentistry uses a lot of non-recyclable items and I keep wondering if they're actually recyclable and we're just not recycling them or is there a way to reformat them for a different use....

It just bothers me. =( If you have any ideas or even resources to give me to learn more about this topic, I'll like to take a browse through them (...when I find time...). This has been bugging me for a while now. 

On another, totally unrelated topic, I seem to find myself daydreaming about food a lot in class. Whyyyyy? It makes me so hungry =(. Yeah.... sorry for the sidetrack. I'll go back to studying now. ><
